Sign business environment being improved for foreign investments

THE ADMINISTRATIVE COMMITTEE of Suzhou Industrial Park in Suzhou, East China's Jiangsu province, has recently published an English-language version of its plan to improve the business environment. China Daily writer Li Yang comments:

Industrial parks have played an important role in boosting China's economic growth for nearly 30 years, and numerous foreign enterprises have seen their businesses boom in industrial parks across the country. Yet this is the first time that an industrial park's administrators have taken the initiative to offer an English-language version of a document.

Which comes more as a surprise than an overdue praiseworthy move, since after more than 30 years, it is the first administrative department of the hundreds of national-level industrial parks to provide such a service.
