Kuwait:
Kuwait Minister of Commerce and Industry and Minister of State for
Communication Affairs Omar Al-Omar discussed with the vice chairman of the
Chinese National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) the prospects of
promoting commercial cooperation. The meeting took place on Thursday following
the minister’s participation in the China-GCC Forum on Investment and Industrial
Cooperation in Xiamen city, Fujian province, southeast China, according to a
statement from the Kuwaiti Ministry of Commerce and Industry.
Both sides commended the growing economic relations between Kuwait and China,
which gained momentum from the visit to China by His Highness the Amir of
Kuwait, Sheikh Mishal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, in September. During the
visit, His Highness the Amir met Chinese President Xi Jinping, and both
countries signed a number of MoUs on mega-development projects. Al-Omar told the
Chinese official that Kuwait attaches great importance to the implementation of
the documents that were endorsed by the competent agencies in both countries,
