The Australian state of Queensland is opening a trade and investment office in Shenzhen as it seeks to court businesses and rebuild ties in mainland China and Hong Kong, with its finance minister calling the city a “gateway” for trade.
Queensland Minister for Finance, Trade, Employment and Training Ros Bates, who is leading a trade mission to mainland China and Hong Kong, said her state was “open for business” as she pointed to opportunities for cooperation in infrastructure, healthcare and clean energy.
