Bilateral relations to improve, trade to grow, says AmCham

The American Chamber of Commerce in South China said on Wednesday it believed Sino-US relations would continue to grow after Donald Trump was elected as the next US president.

"I firmly believe that he realizes that China is one of our most important partners on the world stage and must be treated as an equal partner. I'm confident that Trump will work on building a future based on cooperation and trade with China," said Harley Seyedin, president of AmCham South China.

"Now that the campaign rhetoric is over, I am fully confident that Trump will pay great attention to expansion and liberalization of trade between China and the United States," he said.
