Head of State unveils Kazakhstan’s pavilion at JD com platform

Head of State Kassym-Jomart Tokayev unveiled Kazakhstan’s national pavilion at JD com e-commerce platform on the margins of his state visit to China, Kazinform cites the Akorda press service.

In his speech at the event, President Tokayev emphasized that Kazakhstan plays an important role in the development of global online trade.

He welcomed the inauguration of Kazakhstan’s national pavilion at JD com e-commerce platform as it is expected to add momentum to Kazakhstan-China cooperation.

The Kazakh President reminded that two-way trade between Kazakhstan and China hit the mark of $31 billion last year. Beijing and Astana, in his words, will continue to promote partnership in e-commerce which, hopefully, will enable them to step up bilateral trade turnover to $40 billion in the nearest future.
