Former Australian trade and investment minister and Special Envoy for Trade Andrew Robb will attend this year’s 19th China International Fair for Investment & Trade.
During his tenure as Australia’s trade minister, Robb signed the China-Australia Free Trade Agreement in Canberra in June 2015, alongside China’s minister of commerce Gao Hucheng. The FTA came in effect in December 2015 and is set to benefit bilateral trade and boost cooperation in various areas.
Now acting as a Special Envoy for Trade, Robb’s attendance at the 19th CIFIT is expected to enhance Australia’s presence at the September fair in Xiamen, Fujian province.
Australia will have a dedicated exhibition space at the Xiamen International Convention and Exhibition Center, the main venue of the CIFIT. 50 companies in fields of agriculture, health care, realty and education will show off their strengths at the 700 square meters space.

The Australian Business Forum (ABF) will have a stand-alone exhibition space at the same venue and be hosting the Australia China BusinessWeek 2016.
China has launched a new pilot program to allow eligible enterprises greater access to overseas financing in support of green and low-carbon transformation projects, the country's foreign exchange regulator said on Aug 21.
To further streamline the experience, China is expanding tax refund stores, broadening the range of refundable goods, and refining refund procedures, ensuring an efficient and seamless shopping experience for global visitors.
