[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Hyeyoung] The Korea International Trade Association (KITA) announced on the 10th that it held the 'China Market Entry Strategy Forum' jointly with the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy.

The forum, held on the 9th at COEX in Samseong-dong, was organized to introduce new strategies for Korean companies to enter the Chinese market amid policy shifts and changes in the business environment in China, such as the implementation of Xi Jinping's "Common Prosperity," acceleration of carbon neutrality, ongoing COVID-19 issues, and the US-China dispute.

Lee Sang-hoon, head of the Beijing office at the Korea Institute for International Economic Policy, stated, "Xi Jinping's 'Common Prosperity,' which means 'let's all live well together,' has emerged as the next-generation policy ideology following Deng Xiaoping's 'Development First' theory. Our companies need to focus on identifying the opportunities and risks arising from the implementation of the Common Prosperity policy."

Jeon Byung-seo, director of the China Economic and Financial Research Institute, explained, "China's power crisis and Korea's shortage of urea solution both resulted from confusion caused by China's carbon neutrality policy," adding, "Since China announced a roadmap to achieve carbon peak (the highest annual total CO2 emissions followed by a gradual decrease) by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060, China is expected to become the largest market for carbon neutrality in the future."

Kim Hee-jong, CEO of Sangsangrak, active in the Chinese early childhood education market, said, "Although the Chinese government's regulation on private education has directly impacted the education business, demand for high-quality educational content is actually increasing, so there are still many opportunities."

Cho Hak-hee, head of the International Business Division at KITA, emphasized, "China is our largest export market and a global supply source, making it an indispensable business partner for our companies," and added, "We must continuously seek ways to understand and respond to changes in China."
