GUANGZHOU: There are many areas of collaboration that Sarawak and Hainan can explore.

Deputy Premier Datuk Amar Awang Tengah Ali Hasan said Hainan has seen tremendous development in recent years and that there are many similarities between the island province and Sarawak in terms of food, weather and culture.

“There are many areas of collaborations that can be explored particularly on export related sectors where Hainan’s new policies on free trade and investment facilities can be a good channel for Sarawak’s products to enter China’s huge market,” he said in a statement.

Awang Tengah had received a courtesy call from the Deputy Mayor of Haikou Municipal People’s Government and Member of the Standing Committee Lu Min during the launch of the Ministry of International Trade, Industry and Investment (MINTRED) Connects programme here.

During the courtesy call, Lu briefed Awang Tengah on the development and direction of Hainan with four major focus sectors namely tourism, services, high tech, and tropical agriculture industries.
