Initiative can help reduce overcapacity

By Liu Xingguo and Shen Guiping | China Daily | Updated: 2017-05-24 07:33

Since President Xi Jinping proposed the Belt and Road Initiative more than three years ago, China has made cooperation with the economies along the Belt and Road a top priority.

Last year, China's non-financial direct investment in the economies along the Belt and Road reached $14.5 billion, accounting for 8.5 percent of China's overall foreign investment. And in the first quarter of this year, China's non-financial direct investment in those economies increased 5.4 percent year-on-year to reach $2.95 billion, which was 14.4 percent of China's total non-financial direct overseas investment during the period.

Till now Chinese enterprises have established 56 economic and trade cooperation zones, and invested more than $18.5 billion in 20 economies along the Belt and Road, generating about $1.1 billion in tax revenues and creating 180,000 new jobs in the host economies.
