Notably, 69 projects amounting to 65.6 billion yuan were inked in Kunming, the capital of southwest China's Yunnan province. These agreements are set to inject new momentum into the city's industrial upgrading, accelerate the formation of industrial clusters, and continually optimize its economic structure.
In addition, five projects with an agreement value exceeding one billion yuan were contracted in the China-Laos Mohan-Boten Economic Cooperation Zone, Mohan town.
