Guangdong foreign trade to maintain momentum

Guangdong province's high import and export volume has been attributed in part to the restructuring and upgrading of foreign trade companies and innovation in science and technology.

Ding Xiaozhi, a professor with the Economics and Management College of Zhaoqing University, said many Guangdong companies that have made rapid progress in their industrial restructuring and upgrading have shown a strong ability in developing innovation in science and technology in the past year.

"And that has helped them further improve the quality of export products to boost foreign trade," Ding told China Daily.
