Hong Kong: Bridging Business Opportunities under the Belt and Road Initiative
HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 30 June 2025 - As a global trade and financial centre and a key link in the Belt and Road Initiative (B&RI), Hong Kong plays a pivotal role in connecting the Belt and Road regions, spanning some 150 countries around the world. Hong Kong's external trade with Belt and Road economies other than Mainland China has surged by almost 78 per cent (3.2 times the growth rate of Hong Kong's trade with all economies) between 2013 and 2024. Tapping into this huge potential is a strong focus of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government, including arranging outbound business missions to Belt and Road countries/regions as well as inviting global policymakers, business leaders, investors and academics to attend the annual flagship Belt and Road Summit in the city. The HKSAR's Chief Executive John Lee has so far led high-level delegation visits to four of the six Gulf Cooperation Council countries, most recently Kuwait and Qatar, as well as six of the 10 Member States of ASEAN, which is Hong Kong's second largest trading partner. And, just last week, the Belt and Road Office (BRO) under the Commerce and Economic Development Bureau of the HKSAR Government led an infrastructure and construction mission to Indonesia and Malaysia (22-26 June 2025). These visits strengthen government-to-government relations, connect project owners with investors, and promote Hong Kong's unique advantages under 'one country, two systems', including the city's common law system and free flows of capital and talent. They also foster partnership opportunities by highlighting Hong Kong's professional services expertise in areas ranging from engineering, architecture and surveying to design, legal and financial services. One such company is Hong Kong green technology start-up i2Cool, which has introduced its cooling systems to the United Arab Emirates, securing a deal to apply its i2Coating to the Dubai Mall's rooftop. This helped the shopping mall achieve a 20% reduction in air-conditioning energy consumption. During last week's mission to Indonesia and Malaysia, i2Cool signed memoranda of understanding (MOUs) with local partners. Meanwhile, a Hong Kong firm is investing in a data centre in the Indonesian capital Jakarta, leveraging opportunities in digital infrastructure to contribute to the development of the Digital Silk Road in promoting connectivity. The Tier III hyperscale facility is capable of handling a huge amount of data safely and securely, with an initial 20MW IT load. Equipped with advanced security measures and round-the-clock monitoring and support, the data centre can promptly identify and resolve any potential problems, minimising downtime and optimising business productivity. The HKSAR Government and its Belt and Road Office helped to make the business connections with local partners through networking events. The project highlights Hong Kong's role as a 'super connector' and 'super value-adder' in influential deal-making. Professional services thrive in Hong Kong, thanks to the city's robust legal system and the rule of law. Hong Kong is the only common law jurisdiction within China, which means that the legal regime in the business realm resembles that of many major global financial centres. As such, the newly established International Organization for Mediation (IOMed) will have its headquarters in Hong Kong. IOMed will become the world's first intergovernmental international legal organisation dedicated to resolving international disputes through mediation. It will provide a pathway for countries along the B&RI and beyond - regardless of culture, language and legal system - to resolve international disputes based on mutual respect and understanding. Meanwhile, Hong Kong is gearing up to host the 10th edition of the Belt and Road Summit in September (10-11 September, 2025). The Summit gathers senior government officials and business leaders from countries and regions along and beyond the Belt and Road to exchange insights on multilateral co-operation and explore concrete business opportunities. Last year's summit welcomed more than 6,000 attendees from around the world, including over 90 high-profile speakers. The event also arranged over 800 one-to-one business matching meetings and featured over 110 exhibitors, creating business opportunities throughout the Belt and Road regions. Thousands of policymakers, business leaders, investors and academics attend the annual Belt and Road Summit.

China, Jordan witness steady development, Chinese Ambassador says
Ammon News - China's Ambassador to Amman, Chen Chuandong, has affirmed that relations between China and Jordan are witnessing steady development based on mutual respect and shared benefits across all fields. Speaking at a farewell reception Tuesday evening to mark the end of his diplomatic mission in the Kingdom, the ambassador praised Jordan, under the leadership of His Majesty King Abdullah II, as an "oasis of security and stability" in the Middle East. He commended the nation for overcoming numerous challenges and for its confident and optimistic pursuit of development and modernization. He highlighted the alignment of both nations on several regional and international issues, particularly their shared support for a just, two-state solution to the Palestinian cause and their cooperation in delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza. Ambassador Chen noted the significant growth in economic partnership, pointing out that bilateral trade soared to $537 million in 2024, marking a 21% year-on-year increase from $360 million in 2020. He cited major projects, including a "Belt and Road" initiative memorandum signed this year, Chinese firms becoming the largest shareholder in the Arab Potash Company boosting its output and contributing to China's food security and extensive investments in Jordan's solar and wind energy sectors, which have created numerous jobs and supported the Kingdom's green transition. Cultural and educational ties have also flourished. "Chinese troupes have participated in the Jerash Festival for consecutive years, and events like 'Tea for Harmony,' food festivals, and anime screenings have been widely embraced by our Jordanian friends," Chen said. He added that approximately 600 Jordanians are studying Chinese, while 500 Chinese students are studying Arabic in Jordan, and the embassy provided training in China for nearly 600 Jordanians last year. Marking the 10th anniversary of the strategic partnership between the two countries, the ambassador expressed his optimism for a brighter future and a broader scope for bilateral relations.

Climate Impact GPS Campaign: supporting the Government's roadmap on climate disclosure HKQAA announced on the event that it took the lead in launching the HKQAA Climate Impact GPS Campaign earlier this year in support of the sustainability disclosure policies of our country and the HKSAR Government. This initiative aims to engage organisations, including the banking sector and the listed companies, in building capacity to address climate-related risks and opportunities so as to well prepare required climate-related financial disclosures by offering industry-based technical guidance, workshops and software tools, including the scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions calculation tool. The Campaign is open to organisations at no cost, and nearly 90 participating organisations that joined the Pilot Program were recognised on a presentation ceremony in the Afternoon Session. Participating organisations of the Pilot Program gain prior access to preview relevant industry-based technical guidance, as well as participate in workshops and use the tools. In terms of promoting professional talent development, HKQAA is honoured to be invited to cooperate with the Beijing Municipal Finance Bureau on a sustainability information disclosure pilot and training project, helping the country steadily advance the development of its sustainability disclosure standards system. Moreover, a memorandum of understanding was signed at the Forum by Mr P C Chan, Chief Executive Officer of HKQAA, and Prof Karen Cheung, Director of Hong Kong Institute of Education for Sustainable Development. This memorandum aims to jointly promote the establishment and optimisation of sustainable development talent standards in Hong Kong, enhance talent cultivation and the upgrading of sustainable development skills, effectively drive industry-wide sustainable development, and foster Hong Kong and the entire Greater Bay Area as an international centre for sustainable development talent. ''I would like to take this opportunity to thank the HKQAA for its contributions to the development of green finance in Hong Kong. The HKQAA has been participating in the development of international standards for sustainable finance and launched the Green and Sustainable Finance Certification Scheme (formerly called Green Finance Certification Scheme) in 2018. I am delighted to know that the HKQAA also supports the development of a roadmap for sustainability disclosure in our country by contributing to the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Finance and Economy's pilot project for sustainability disclosure and talent development. At home, it has supported Hong Kong's own disclosure roadmap by establishing industry-specific climate risk tools to help local businesses prepare for future reporting requirements,' said Mr Christopher Hui, GBS, JP, Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, in his remarks via video. Introducing the Effectiveness and Potential Application of Structural Data Disclosure Model for Sustainability Disclosure HKQAA introduced a brand-new structural data disclosure model in 2024, named the 'Nexus Data Model'. With the meaning of nexus, the objective of the data model is to link material sustainability issues and to connect all stakeholders together. This model is already applied to HKQAA ESG Connect Program, Hong Kong Registration and will be used for other engagement, disclosure or assessment services in the future application. As the evaluation project leader of this data disclosure model, Professor Zhang Lin, School of Energy and Environment of the City University of Hong Kong, shared on the Afternoon Forum the team's finding based on data obtained from the HKQAA ESG Connect Program. The results confirmed that the data model effectively encourages businesses to adopt ESG initiatives and disclose progress on ESG, Carbon Action, Climate Response, and CBAM Ready, while strengthening stakeholder connections. Ultimately, it fosters a sustainable ESG Ecosystem, driving long-term ESG development. Establishing strategic partnership to promote high-quality development in the GBA On the Forum, under the witness of Mr P C Chan, Chief Executive Officer of HKQAA, and Mr Gao Guosheng, Member of the Party Leadership Group of the Guangdong Provincial Administration for Market Regulation, Secretary of the Party Committee and Secretary General of the Guangdong Intellectual Property Administration, a memorandum of understanding was signed by Mr K T Ting, HKQAA's Chief Operating Officer, and Mr Lu Yongchi, Chief Operation Officer of The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Certification Promotion Centre. This memorandum aims to deepen cooperation in the field of testing and certification, advance the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, promote the alignment of regulatory mechanisms between the mainland and the Hong Kong and Macao regions, and support the high-quality development of the Greater Bay Area.

Co-hosted by HKQAA and the People's Government of Nanping, Fujian Province, Thematic Forum – Shaping a Sustainable and Livable City: Green Industry, Shared by the World focused on topics of carbon measurement, value of ecological products, and the bamboo industry. Mr Wei Dunsheng, Deputy Mayor of Nanping Municipal People's Government, Fujian Province, was the officiating guest of the Thematic Forum. Launched a silver-friendly registration scheme to support the Government's silver economy policy The presentation ceremony of the Hong Kong Green and Sustainability Contribution Awards 2025 was held on the event. The Awards aim to encourage companies to incorporate sustainable practices into their management decisions and daily operations, and recognise their efforts and contributions. Ｏrganisations and venues from Hong Kong, Mainland China and overseas were honoured. This year, 'Promote High-Quality Elderly Living', 'Promote Silver-friendly Community' and 'Promote Halai-friendly Community' categories were newly added to the Awards. The awards of 'Promote High-Quality Elderly Living' and 'Promote Silver-friendly Community' were presented by Dr Bernard Chan, Acting Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development of the Government of the HKSAR, who also officiated the Thematic Forum – Pathways to the Sustainable Development of the Silver Economy. HKQAA has been launching various certification and registration schemes in line with government policy directions to continuously enhance the professionalism and recognition of the industry. To support the Working Group on Promoting Silver Economy led by the Deputy Chief Secretary for Administration, HKQAA has introduced the HKQAA Hong Kong Registration – Silver-friendly Series. This series aims to guide enterprises in tapping into the silver market through three main aspects – venues, products and services, while also creating a better living environment for the elderly. HKQAA will continue to promote the registration scheme, encouraging more enterprises to participate and jointly respond to the government's policy of promoting the silver economy. 'I would like to thank the Hong Kong Quality Assurance Agency for taking the lead in launching the 'Hong Kong Registration – Silver-Friendly Series' in support of the Government's efforts to promote the silver economy. This registration scheme sets out a set of criteria from the perspective of silver consumers, guiding enterprises to enhance their venues, products, and services. I also call on more enterprises to actively take part in the scheme by integrating silver-friendly elements into their daily operations and creating a consumption environment that better caters to the needs and preferences of the silver generation, thereby boosting 'silver consumption' and driving economic growth,' said Dr Bernard Chan, JP, Acting Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development, in his remarks. Organisation's Sharing on Sustainability Strategies JEC has been a long-standing ally in Hong Kong's sustainability efforts, aligning with the 2050 Net-Zero mission by providing innovative sustainability solutions to both public and private sectors for decades. JEC's AI digital solution and environmental engineering projects deliver real ESG impact, transforming how businesses and cities thrive sustainably. Regarding JEC's innovations are shaping a more sustainable Hong Kong, JEC's vision is to pioneer even smarter and more sustainable engineering innovations, making them accessible across Hong Kong and Asia. JEC's mission contributes to Hong Kong's 2050 Net-Zero future. JEC looks forward to connecting with all sectors to shape a greener tomorrow. First, JEDI, JEC's AI digital solution, optimizes energy and detects faults in buildings. Its algorithms analyze weather forecasts, past energy consumption, equipment pattern and utility bills to build predictive models, ensuring precise energy management. In 2024, JEDI saved over 8 million kilowatt-hJEC'ss and cut over 4 million kilograms of CO2 across grade A commercial buildings, campuses, and transport hubs in APAC. By analysing real-time data, like chiller performance, it slashes energy costs by 8-26%. For instance, in a commercial tower, JEDI's fault detection reduced downtime, boosting efficiency and meeting BEAM Plus standards. Next, through working with the government, JEC's environmental engineering projects strengthen Hong Kong's sustainability. The Tseung Kwan O Desalination Plant, launched in 2023, uses reverse osmosis to supply ultimately increase to 135,000 million litres, equivalent to around 5% of Hong Kong's potable water demand. Its solar panels generate renewable energy to account for 16% of total energy usage, reducing grid dependence by 30% and earning BEAM Plus Platinum certification. The Shek Wu Hui Sewage Treatment Works employs advanced treatment technology, enhancing water quality and earning a 2021 HKIBIM Bronze. At O·PARK2, JEC's waste-to-energy facility handles food waste daily through anaerobic digestion to create biogas for electricity production. This process contributes to exporting significant amounts of energy annually, powering local households, and effectively reducing greenhouse gas emissions. JEC's Pilot Biochar Production Plant in EcoPark, Tuen Mun, processes tonnes of woody waste annually to produce tonnes of biochar, reducing emissions and serving as a soil conditioner and pollutant filter.
