The China Manzhouli Cross-Border E-Commerce Summit Forum opened in Manzhouli, Inner Mongolia autonomous region on June 17, to discuss the future of cross-border e-commerce.

 

Manzhouli is striving to upgrade its cross-border e-business system through the construction of cross-border e-commerce industrial parks, information platforms and comprehensive bonded zones. It was named a key city in cross-border e-commerce by Inner Mongolia's Department of Commerce.

 

Meanwhile, the municipal government has put forward measures to promote cross-border e-commerce including preferential policies in industrial parks construction, support for leading enterprises and professional’s introduction.

 

It has also listed an industrial park and four companies as cross-border e-commerce pilots that will receive government support.

 

"We hope more e-commerce enterprises will take part in the cross-border e-business, through the leadership of these pilots," said Guo Xiaofeng, vice-mayor of Manzhouli.

 

Manzhouli is optimizing its cross-border e-commerce system and aims to be a leading city in the area, according to Han Xianjun, secretary of Manzhouli municipal Party committee.

 

The online population of Inner Mongolia was 11 million and the e-commerce trading volume hit 71 billion CNY (11.44 billion USD) in 2013, increasing 250 percent comparing last year, said Guo Gang, deputy head of the region's department of commerce. The region has enormous potential in e-commerce, he added.

 

The governments of Manzhouli and Russian Chita organized this forum jointly. The forum's attendees included officials from the two governments, representatives of Russian e-commerce enterprises and domestic enterprises.
