Immigrate to Singapore Focus on Singapore's Economy: On October 29, Dong Wenbiao, Chairman of the Board of China Minmetals Investment Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "CMI"), appeared in Singapore to attend the second meeting of the first Global Expert Advisory Committee of CMI. In his opening speech, Dong stated that as a representative of private enterprises going global, CMI's development must achieve a leapfrog in growth by standing on the shoulders of giants.
Dong Wenbiao stated that in recent years, the Chinese government has continuously introduced policies to guide private enterprises to participate in overseas competition and encourage private capital to engage in international operations. Private enterprises also have a strong desire to go global. CMI is willing to serve the national strategy of "going global" and the "Belt and Road" initiative, playing its due role in the upgrading and transformation of national industries, and becoming a leader in private capital going global.
From October 29 to 30, CMI's global think tank—the Global Expert Advisory Committee gathered in Singapore.
The experts visiting Singapore this time included prominent figures such as former European Commission President and former Italian Prime Minister Romano Prodi, former French Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin, and globally renowned corporate strategy consultant Roland Berger, as well as the addition of two new members—Indonesian Chamber of Commerce Chairman Suryo and former Prime Minister of Pakistan Aziz.
Dong Wenbiao pointed out that the support from these "external brains" not only manifests in macro-strategic aspects but also plays an important role in specific business operations. For example, the strategic cooperation between CMI and Luxembourg International Aviation Group was personally consulted by Roland Berger; former French Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin has also visited several shareholder enterprises of CMI to understand the actual situation of the companies.
Regarding the future, Dong Wenbiao revealed that CMI is currently vigorously advancing its internationalization strategy and will continue to deepen exchanges and cooperation with entrepreneurs from Singapore, Indonesia, and other countries and regions around the world.
