Headed by Ken Takasaki, a world famous expert in hepatobiliary surgery, a Japanese medical delegation visited Xiamen, Fujian province from March 1 to 2 at the invitation of the Chinese People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries.
Shao Yuqin, deputy director of Xiamen's foreign and Overseas Chinese Affairs Office, expressed his wishes to further enhance exchanges and cooperation with Japan in medical treatment and elderly care at a meeting with the Japanese delegation members.
The delegation visited local old people's homes and related medical companies during their stay in the city, including Jincuobian Old People's Home, Haicang Biomedical Port, which gathers large numbers of innovative biomedical companies, and Tasman Bioengineering Co, which specializes in traditional Chinese herbal medicines.
They showed great interest in the city's elderly care, biomedical and Chinese herbal medicine cultivation industries, which laid a solid foundation for future cooperation.
It was the second time that the CPAFFC has introduced high-end Japanese medical resources to Xiamen. In 2015, at the invitation of CPAFFC, a delegation of Iskra Industry Co Ltd, a Chinese patent medicine trader, visited Xiamen.
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.
