On January 9, 2024, Ambassador Zhang Jianwei met with Ghanem Suleiman Al-Ghenaiman, Managing Director of the Kuwait Investment Authority (KIA). Hu Hanming, Economic and Commercial Counselor of the Chinese Embassy, was present at the meeting.

Ambassador Zhang pointed out that last year, China’s economy has been steadily recovering and turning for the better. China has made solid gains in its pursuit of high-quality development and unwaveringly advanced its high-standard opening up. Now, both countries are stepping up to implement the important consensus reached by the leaders of our two countries last year and unblock the potential of bilateral cooperation. As the new year begins, let us also start anew. China is ready to share with Kuwait development opportunities created along its new journey of Chinese civilization. He expected Kuwait to keep increasing its investment in China, which will broaden the horizon for bilateral relations.

For his part, Ghanem said considering the size of Chinese economy and its good business environment, Kuwait is positive about the prospects of Chinese economy and attaches great importance to its investment in China. It will continue to work with China to deepen cooperation in relevant areas for the benefit of the two nations and peoples.
