Prior to the start of the research visit, Chairman Chen Zhongqi and his delegation enthusiastically toured the exhibition showcasing the Group’s achievements over its 70-year history, expressing high praise and sincere admiration for the remarkable accomplishments and the rich, time-honored corporate culture and heritage that the company has cultivated over the past seven decades.

He expressed heartfelt gratitude to the UAE Jiangsu Overseas Chinese Business Association for its longstanding care and support in helping Nantong Construction Engineering expand and establish its foothold in the UAE market, and expressed the hope that the two organizations will continue to strengthen cooperation in the future, leveraging their respective strengths to achieve mutual benefit and common development.

It has fully leveraged its role as a bridge and link, rallying the hearts, pooling the strengths, and harnessing the wisdom of overseas Chinese, while uniting Jiangsu-based enterprises and Jiangsu expatriates residing in the UAE.

As a dynamic force in China’s construction industry’s international expansion, Nantong Construction Engineering has vigorously explored the UAE engineering contracting market, achieving initial breakthroughs, establishing a solid foothold, and attaining remarkable results. President Chen stated that the UAE Jiangsu Overseas Chinese Business Association will, as always, continue to serve as a vital bridge and link, bringing together the collective strength of Jiangsu overseas Chinese and Chinese nationals in the UAE, providing unwavering support and assistance to Nantong Construction Engineering in its business development and market expansion, offering warm and attentive services, and helping the company strengthen and grow its presence in the UAE market. In doing so, the association will also contribute new achievements to enhancing China–UAE exchanges and cooperation and fostering greater mutual understanding and affinity between the two peoples.
