Plans to introduce a flight between Chennai and Quanzhou, China, are under discussion.
“We are actively studying and applying for the flight from Quanzhou to Chennai,” said Wang Yongli, Mayor of Quanzhou, Municipal People’s Government, Fujian Province. He said the Quanzhou Jinjiang international airport ranks first among 20 major fastest growing airports in the world.
According to Mr. Yongli, more investments would be coming into Tamil Nadu from his province. “Quanzhou plans to carry out the construction of an Economic and Trade Cooperation Park with Chennai. We are looking forward to establishing industrial parks in both Chennai and Quanzhou,” he said while talking to a delegation at the China·Fujian – Tamil Nadu Economic and Trade Promotion Conference organised by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) in Chennai.
Through this model of ‘Two cities, Two Industrial Parks’, the plan is to deepen cooperation in textile, footwear, garments, machinery manufacturing, biopharmaceuticals, software and information technology services and promote bilateral exchanges in terms of industry, talent and brands between China and India.
“In terms of the establishment of the Quanzhou Park in Chennai, a series of promotional conferences have been held. Many enterprises are interested in making investments in India,” Mr. Yongli said. Quanzhou is actively promoting industries including garments, food and beverages and building materials to make investments and set up their businesses in the upcoming Chennai Industrial Park.
Panpan Food Group and other food enterprises are looking forward to utilising Chennai’s agricultural and sideline product resources. Another firm, Linewell Software Group, aims to collaborate with relevant institutions in Chennai in the development of Digital India and the Chennai Smart City project.
M. Ponnuswami, former chairman, CII Tamil Nadu, and managing director, Pon Pure Chemical India Pvt Ltd, said the bilateral relationship between China and India, particularly Southern India has been going strong. “The recent meet between the leaders of India and China organised at Mamallapuram is a direct move towards reviving and enhancing the bilateral ties,” he added.
