China s green moves to help EU firms grow
Apr 30, 2021, 14:53
China s environmental goals will create growth opportunities for European companies, some of which have decades of experience in the field, a top industry body head said.
Joerg Wuttke, president of the European Union Chamber of Commerce in China, said China s development during the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-25) will certainly make it a larger economy. It will be a more sophisticated economy, with very demanding customers and focused more on qualitative, rather than quantitative growth. There will also be an added emphasis on environmental protection, he said.
Wuttke s comments come at a time when China has stated its resolve to peak carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060.

Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor said Wednesday that without a proper sense of national identity and national education among the public, many favorable policies for Hong Kong to integrate into the mainland will render useless and ineffective.
Hong Kong has benefited from a number of national and regional policies, Lam said, such as the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and closer financial connectivity with the Chinese mainland. These policy supports will go to waste if Hong Kong residents lack a sense of national identity or do not support Hong Kong s integration into the overall development of the country.
