Foreign trade: Steady growth projected

China's foreign trade will continue to grow in the months ahead as overseas demand for domestic products strengthens steadily, according to a spokesman for the country's biggest trade event.

"More foreign buyers are expected to visit the Canton Fair as they look for innovative, quality products made in China," fair spokesman Xu Bing said.

The Canton Fair, or China Import and Export Fair, which is widely regarded as a barometer of the country's foreign trade, opened its autumn session on Sunday in Guangzhou, Guangdong province.
