On July 16, the China Chamber of International Commerce (CCOIC) Seminar on International Cooperation was held in Beijing during the 3rd China International Supply Chain Expo (CISCE). Nie Wenhui, Vice Chairman of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT), attended and addressed the event.

Nie Wenhui noted that the world is now in a new round of turbulence and transformation, with global industrial and supply chains undergoing significant restructuring. He underscored the importance of countries working together to build a global industrial and supply chain system that is secure, stable, smooth, efficient, open, inclusive, and mutually beneficial. Business associations and chambers of commerce worldwide should further serve as bridges for communication and build a tightly woven cooperation network, boosting collaboration in terms of trade liberalization, mutual recognition of standards, technological exchange, business environment improvement, and legal safeguards. The CCPIT and the CCOIC will continue expanding their international circle of friends and deepening exchanges and cooperation with business associations and chambers of commerce across the globe. He called on participants to leverage the CISCE as a platform to build bridges of amity and bonds of affinity and achieve mutual success and notable progress together on this journey of connecting the world for a shared future. 

Speeches were also given by Low Kian Chuan, Chairman of the Malaysia-China Business Council; Chen Zhikun, Permanent Honorary Chairman of the Indonesian Chinese Entrepreneur Association; Vikrom Kromadit, Chairman of the Thailand-China Business Council; Dr. Jonathan Choi Koon-shum, Chairman of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce, Hong Kong; and Tang Dongliang, Executive Deputy General Manager of Luzhou Laojiao Co., Ltd. (a CCOIC vice-chairman unit). They engaged in in-depth discussions on enhancing enterprise participation in cooperation among business associations and chambers of commerce. 

Persons in charge from business associations, chambers of commerce, and enterprises in Malaysia, Thailand, Portugal, the Republic of Korea, Japan, the US, and other countries and regions shared experience on policy alignment, industrial collaboration, and third-market development. They called on all to pursue greater synergy at the regional level following the principle of joint contribution and shared benefits, working collectively to enhance global supply chain resilience and sustain economic prosperity.
