The FBA EAC delegation included the following members:
● Lyu Wanjun, Representative of the Shanghai Federation of Modern Service Industries;
● Lai Chun, Investment Advisor to the State Corporation of the Chongqing Bonded Port Zone, and Deputy Chairman of the Chongqing Association for the Promotion of Foreign Economic and Trade Exchanges;
● Ivan Arkhipov, Deputy Chairman of the Society for Russian-Chinese Friendship, President of the I.V. Arkhipov Foundation for the Development of Socio-Economic Relations between Russia and China, and Advisor to the General Director of the SLC Group;
● Sergey Korotkov, Advisor to the President of the FBA EAC, Head of the Brazil Desk, and former Director of the UNIDO Office in Russia;
● Nadezhda Khonenova, Advisor to the General Director of the SLC Group.
By bringing together representatives from Shanghai, Chongqing, and Russia’s business and expert communities, the delegation's composition facilitated a comprehensive review of cooperation opportunities tailored to the interests of diverse regions. This aligns perfectly with the vision articulated by Li Shuobing at the Forum: linking the Khorgos – Eastern Gates SEZ with the business districts of Shanghai, as well as the port and industrial zones of Chongqing.
During the working visit, the participants toured the SEZ's logistics hubs, including the Khorgos Gateway dry port. The delegation members highly commended the scale of operations, noting the infrastructure's readiness to accommodate high-tech manufacturing facilities.
A central topic of the consultations was the issue raised by ABRK President Bakhytbek Bayseitov: how to bridge the gaps between different jurisdictions and regulatory frameworks. Building upon his earlier proposal for a transparent and objective credit system, FBA EAC President Li Shuobing suggested establishing a pilot working group to develop a standardized project evaluation framework. This initiative is designed to mitigate risks for investors from China and Eurasian countries.
The next venue for advancing the practical aspects of this dialogue will be the Shanghai International Financial and Economic Forum in 2027.
