The Syrian-Chinese Economic Development Forum opened at the Four Seasons hotel in Damascus, organised by the Syrian-Chinese Business Council with the Syrian-Chinese Center for Industrial City Twinning, in cooperation with the ministries of economy, industry, and internal trade and consumer protection.
