JIC encourages Chinese delegates to invest in Jordan

AMMAN — Jordan Investment Commission (JIC) President Thabet Al Wir on Tuesday discussed ways to enhance Chinese investments in Jordan with a delegation visiting from Ningxia province, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.

During the meeting, Wir and the Chinese delegates highlighted the importance of benefitting from Chinese agricultural experience and enhancing bilateral cooperation, especially in the field of agriculture.

Wir urged the delegates to move away from the traditional approach of viewing the Arab market as consumers, and to benefit from Jordan’s access to US and European markets through the China-proposed fund to finance infrastructure projects.

In September, the JIC took part in the 2015 China-Arab States Expo held in Yinchuan, the capital of Ningxia Hui autonomous region.
