Chinese Ambassador: We Support Integrating the Israeli Mind in the Chinese Market to Generate Miracles


(Ynet News) Ofer Petersburg - Tuesday marked 18 years since the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Israel, during which trade relations have grown from $42 million to $6 billion. China's Ambassador to Israel Zhao Jun said in an interview: "Israel contributes greatly to China in agricultural affairs....We have learned a lot from you." "China is Israel's No. 1 business partner in Asia. You are good with medicine, and our cooperation is good in this matter too." "By the end of 2009, Israel set up 292 projects for investment in China, estimated at $220 million. The volume of trade grows every year." "We believe in and support integrating the Israeli mind in the Chinese market in order to generate those same miracles you have created in this small country. History has taught us that we are true friends." "The friendship between Israel and the Chinese people has been going on for over 1,000 years, including during the Holocaust when Jewish refugees were given shelter in China although China was in dire straits, under a Japanese attack."
