Investment law to ensure level playing field

Official says it will have crucial role in enabling better business environment

China will continuously amend the negative list regarding foreign investment in the country and improve the mechanisms through which global investors can express their complaints to facilitate the implementation of the newly passed Foreign Investment Law, said a senior commerce official.

Although the Foreign Investment Law doesn't contain too many clauses, its primary function, as a fundamental law, is to build a framework to protect the rights and interests of global businesses, said Li Chenggang, assistant minister of commerce.
