As a significant exhibitor at this expo, Linyi companies took advantage of direct supply from source factories to offer a wide range of high-quality product selections to the Vietnamese market. This not only met the diverse demands of the Vietnamese market but also established a direct bridge for Chinese and Vietnamese enterprises, promoting deep cooperation and exchange in trade between the two sides.
Looking back at 2024, Linyi achieved remarkable results in foreign trade, demonstrating distinctive development trends in trade relations with Vietnam and other Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries.
Regarding trade with Vietnam, bilateral trade continued to steadily expand, with the total import and export volume reaching 4.77 billion yuan ($664.97 million). The trade structure between the two sides showed significant complementary features, with Linyi mainly exporting products such as wood veneer, plywood, and hand tools to Vietnam, while importing aluminum alloys, chemical raw materials, and natural rubber latex.
Expanding the perspective to the entire ASEAN region, Linyi saw robust growth in imports and exports with ASEAN in 2024, with a total trade volume reaching 40.15 billion yuan, representing a 16.2 percent year-on-year increase.
Looking ahead, Linyi will further deepen economic and trade exchanges with Vietnam and ASEAN countries, expand cooperation fields, elevate the level of cooperation, and achieve mutual benefit, win-win cooperation, and common development.

Marcos Heads to US for Talks With Trump on Trade, Security
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. departed for Washington, D.C. on Sunday for an official visit aimed at strengthening Philippine-US economic and defense relations. During his send-off speech at Villamor Air Base, Marcos highlighted his intent to negotiate a bilateral trade deal with the United States, signaling the Philippines' readiness for deeper collaboration. 'I intend to convey to President Trump and his cabinet officials that the Philippines is ready to negotiate a bilateral trade deal that will ensure strong, mutually beneficial, and future-oriented collaborations that only the United States and the Philippines will be able to take advantage of,' Marcos said. The three-day visit, which runs from July 20 to 22, will include meetings with US President Donald Trump, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Marcos also emphasized that while the agenda will focus on defense and security, trade issues — especially the 20% tariff on Filipino goods — will be a key part of discussions. 'This visit reaffirms our commitment to fostering our long-standing alliances as an instrument of peace and a catalyst of development in the Asia-Pacific region and around the world,' he added. Several American businesses are also seeking to meet with the Philippine leader, according to Department of Foreign Affairs Assistant Secretary Raquel Solano. Marcos is expected to invite Trump to attend the East Asia Summit, which the Philippines will host during its ASEAN chairmanship in 2026. Marcos is the first ASEAN head of state to make an official visit to the US under Trump's current term.

China's first Legoland opens to tourists in Shanghai
The Chinese branch of the British-owned theme park franchise is the biggest Legoland in the world. It drew in early customers who flocked to attractions including a miniature train ride and a dragon-themed rollercoaster. "I personally love to play with Lego blocks and we have many sets at home... so I wanted to come to Legoland at the earliest opportunity," said Shi, a 35-year-old resident of nearby city Hangzhou, who was visiting the park with his wife and child. Despite the Chinese economy's sluggish growth in recent years, domestic tourist spending grew 18.6 percent in the first quarter of this year compared to the previous year, according to statistics. "Ever since the pandemic, I've made very few trips abroad," said Shi, adding his family now travels to theme parks around China "many times a year". Eager Lego fans rushed into the park as soon as it opened, wearing themed shirts and waving branded flags as they enjoyed the 318,000-square-metre (78.5-acre) compound in scorching temperatures. Beijing has announced subsidies intended to make travelling within the country more affordable for Chinese citizens, and is pushing local governments to heavily market their attractions on social media. Companies have taken note of the wider local tourism boom and stepped up their plans in China. A new "Spider-Man" attraction at Shanghai Disneyland broke ground in May, while Warner Brothers is set to open a Harry Potter experience in Shanghai by 2027. Toy giant Hasbro said this week its giant Peppa Pig park in the city was now "in the phase of creative design". Chinese collectable toy maker Pop Mart has also opened an attraction in Beijing featuring life-sized versions of its popular Labubu toys. "The various provinces are putting a lot of effort into expanding their tourism industries, and all of them have special attractions," said Xu, a 34-year-old parent visiting Legoland on Saturday with his children. But profitability remains a problem, especially for local companies with less brand recognition. As of late 2024, around 40 percent of parks were still failing to turn a profit, according to state media reports. Yet analysts point to a growing population of retirees and job market changes as key factors pushing more locals to visit domestic attractions. "The labour market is turning more flexible," said Ernan Cui, China consumer analyst at Gavekal Research. "More people have leisure time to travel around."

Cayetano seeks bill to abolish travel tax to boost tourism
A bill filed in the Senate seeks to abolish the travel tax, which its author described as outdated and no longer aligned with the country's economic and regional goals. Senate Bill No. 424, authored by Senator Alan Peter Cayetano, proposes the repeal of the travel tax imposed under Presidential Decree No. 1183, signed nearly five decades ago. 'It is high time to give travelers a break and allow for tourism to flourish by removing one of the barriers to travel,' Cayetano said. The senator said the measure aims to allow all Filipinos, including senior citizens and persons with disabilities, to travel more freely. He also cited studies estimating that while the government may lose around ₱4 billion in annual revenue, the country could gain up to ₱299 billion through increased tourism and consumer spending. Cayetano is also proposing to exempt nationals from ASEAN member states from paying the travel tax in line with the Philippines' commitment under the 2002 ASEAN Tourism Agreement, which calls for the phasing out of travel levies among member countries.
