China International Exhibitions Resume After COVID-19 Halt

China Service Trade Fair Held in Beijing from 4th to 9th
First Offline Event Since COVID-19 Pandemic

[Asia Economy Beijing=Special Correspondent Jo Young-shin] The China International Fair, which was mostly canceled due to the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), will be held.

Xinhua News Agency reported on the 1st that the "2020 China Service Trade Fair" will be held in Beijing from the 4th to the 9th.

This fair is considered one of the three major fairs in China, along with the Canton Fair and the China International Import Expo.

It is known that Chinese President Xi Jinping will send a video congratulatory message for this event.

Xinhua News Agency explained that it is significant as the first offline event held since the COVID-19 pandemic. Holding an offline event in Beijing, the capital of China, is interpreted as confidence in COVID-19 control.

The event will feature companies related to almost all fields connected to real life, such as telecommunications (IT), construction, travel, finance, entertainment culture and sports, transportation, education, and environment, according to Xinhua News Agency.

Small and medium-sized enterprises from Korea are also participating in this event, reportedly restarting transactions with Chinese companies that had stopped after COVID-19.

The Chinese government is reportedly planning to allow various fairs and exhibitions scheduled for the second half of the year if no additional COVID-19 confirmed cases occur after this fair.
