On Wednesday, the Chinese government announced an action plan to expand pilot opening-up in telecommunications, health care and education, and expand the range of industries to encourage foreign investment.

According to the website of the Chinese government, the Ministry of Commerce and the National Development and Reform Commission issued the "2025 foreign investment stability action plan", which proposed a total of 20 key tasks in four aspects to stabilize foreign investment this year.

The plan proposes to expand the pilot opening up of telecommunications, medical care, education and other fields, implement the complete cancellation of restrictions on foreign investment in the manufacturing sector, promote the orderly opening up of the biomedical sector, and expand the scope of industries to encourage foreign investment.

In the past, China's use of foreign capital was dominated by new investment and relatively little investment in mergers and acquisitions, while the world's major attracting countries used foreign capital mainly in mergers and acquisitions. The latest plan proposes to optimize the rules and procedures of foreign mergers and acquisitions, improve the scope of mergers and acquisitions management, and lower the threshold of cross-border share swaps.

CCTV News quoted Zhang Wei, vice president of the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation of the Ministry of Commerce, as saying that this will help promote foreign investment in China's mergers and acquisitions, but also help China optimize and adjust the way to use foreign investment, attract more foreign enterprises through mergers and acquisitions to deepen the Chinese market, and carry out higher level of international cooperation with Chinese enterprises.
