Poland sets up consulate general in China's Chengdu

Xinhua, June 18, 2015 Adjust font size:

Poland on Thursday opened a consulate general in southwest China's Chengdu to develop deeper economic ties with the region.

The consulate general in Chengdu is Poland's fourth consulate general in China.

Poland ambassador Tadeusz Chomicki said he had hoped to open a consulate in Chengdu since the early years of his career.

Chengdu is the starting point of a freight railway linking southwest China with Poland.

The Chengdu government said it would build the city into a trade hub for European companies to run businesses in China and southeast Asia. Endi
