Financial Secretary Paul Chan ended a day‑long visit to Nanjing with a breakfast meeting alongside Jiangsu Provincial Committee member and Executive Vice Governor Zhang Wenbing, where they discussed deepening economic and trade ties, expanding collaboration in innovation and technology, and supporting enterprises in their international expansion.
