Philippines, China revive joint trade body
中菲重建联合经贸机构
Trade officials from Manila and Beijing have begun preparations to convene the Philippine-China Joint Commission on Economic and Trade Cooperation (JCETC) more than five years since the group last met in August 2011.
自上一次在2011年8月会面,时隔五年之后,中菲官员开始准备中菲经贸合作联委会(JCETC)。
Preparations for the JCETC meeting started earlier this month when the Department of Trade and Industry hosted a 14-member group from Beijing led by Wu Zhengping, the director general for Asia in Beijing’s Ministry of Commerce. The Philippine group consisted of officials from the Board of Investments (BOI) and the Bureau of Internal Trade Relations (BITR).
本月初菲贸工部投资理事会和内部贸易关系局的官员接待了中国商务部亚洲司司长吴政平一行14人,自此中菲经贸合作联委会的准备事宜就已经开始了。
According to Philippine Trade Undersecretary Ceferino Rodolfo, next year’s meeting will discuss specific economic cooperation initiatives in the areas of trade and investment promotion, manufacturing, infrastructure, tourism, energy, development of MSMEs (micro, small, and medium enterprise), agriculture and the crafting of a development program for economic cooperation.
菲贸工部副部长鲁道夫称,明年的JCETC主题包括贸易和投资促进以及制造业、基础设施、旅游业、能源、中小微企业、农业等领域的具体经济合作。
During an earlier briefing at the Chinese embassy in Manila, Wu Zhengping said that the Philippines and China “agreed to sign a six-year development plan in the areas of trade, investment, and economic cooperation” in connection with the planned 28th JCETC meeting next year.
中国商务部亚洲司司长在此前访菲时也表示中菲双方将在第28次JCETC上商定中菲在贸易、投资、经贸合作等领域的六年规划。
The Philippines and China discussed possible construction of railways, airports, bridges and expressways and that the two countries had talked about the building of a Chinese industrial park in the Philippines, Wu added.
吴补充说,中菲讨论了建设铁路、机场、桥梁、高速公路等的可能性,且双方商议在菲建立一个中国工业园。
