Aurora province will take center stage as the Philippines’ “City of Charm” in the 14th China-Asean Expo in Nanning, Guangxi, China on Sept. 15 to 17.
As a part of the Philippine delegation led by the Department of Trade and Industry-Center for International Trade and Expositions and Missions, the local government of Aurora will highlight the province’s wonderful sights, fascinating culture and promising investment opportunities in the ‘City of Charm’ pavilion.
In the booth, the Aurora provincial government is also set to feature the amazing sight and economic potential of each of its eight municipalities, namely: Baler, Casiguran, Dilasag, Dinalungan, Dingalan, Dipaculao, Maria Aurora and San Luis.
Caexpo is the second biggest trade event in China, with a total exhibition space of about 80,000 square meters and 4,600 exhibition booths with around 57,000 participants. It is the only international trade fair in the region dedicated to promoting the building of China-Asean Free Trade Area and celebrating regional economic and trade cooperation.
“Aurora will be given a chance to promote its premier agriculture sector and tourist destination in the Chinese and Southeast Asian market. This will lead to more employment and livelihood opportunities to its locals through the entry of foreign and domestic capital that will boost our income-generating industries,” said Center for International Trade Expositions and Missions executive director Clayton Tugonon.
“Harnessing the economic competitiveness of Aurora province will enable its local to diversify its products and improve the services that it can offer to the local and international markets,” Tugonon said.
