It is my honor to declare open the Conference of International Trade Cooperation. On behalf of the Chinese Government and the people, and in my own name, I would express my warm congratulations to the Conference and my heartfelt welcome to all the guests and delegates.

　　It is indeed a privilege and a pleasure for me to address this International Conference, convened with the substantial support from the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Relations. I believe our cooperative efforts are sure to be productive and will contribute directly to further trade expansion to the benefit of our countries.

　　I wish the conference a great success.

　　Thank you for your attention.
