Executives from the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry, LG Electronics, SK Group, Samsung Group, Hyundai Motor Group and other enterprises respectively made remarks, briefing on operations of their businesses in China, and providing their suggestions on promoting trade and economic cooperation between the two countries.

Li Keqiang listened carefully to their remarks and noted that the enterprises presented at the meeting, which started cooperation with China relatively early, have deeply engaged in China's industrialization and modernization, and now represent the high level of the mutually beneficial cooperation between the enterprises of the two countries.
