Businesses fuel digital development in Fujian

The fact that accessing government services is as easy as shopping online is an indication of the rapid digital development taking place in Fuzhou, Fujian province.

The first Digital China Summit, focusing on China's digital construction, was held in Fuzhou earlier this week, providing an opportunity for Fujian to demonstrate its achievements in fields including e-government, digital economy and smart city construction.

Fujian's digital economy exceeded 1 trillion yuan ($158 billion) in 2017, ranking seventh in China, and local businesses have played a big role in the province's remarkable digitalization process.
