An inspection team from the State-owned Fujian Investment and Development Group Co Ltd visited the Pingtan Comprehensive Pilot Zone (PCPZ) to investigate its development on March 20.

You Mengjun, deputy director of PCPZ's administrative committee, briefed the guests on the progress Pingtan has made over the past few years, saying it has already built up a lot of its infrastructure and improved its ecological environment.

Pingtan is now striving to become a cross-Straits communication hub, offering an array of preferential polices to Taiwanese enterprises interested in making an investment in Pingtan, he added.

You also expressed the wish of enhancing communications with the company and seeking cooperation opportunities.

Fujian Investment and Development Group focuses on industrial and financial investment. It has been closely following Pingtan's development and is a shareholder of the local investment and development company, which invested in a wind farm; and it hopes to engage more in Pingtan's development plan, said Wen Ruotong, chairman of the company.
