第二，着力推动双向投资。与双边贸易的巨大成就相比，双边投资的潜力没有得到充分发挥。我们要抓紧完善双向投资的法律法规，消除投资壁垒，推动商签双边投资保护协定和避免双重征税协定，积极开展多种形式的投资促进活动，尽快推动双向投资取得实质性增长。要继续加强基础设施建设、电信、能源、农业、自然资源开发等领域的投资合作，鼓励中小企业开展多渠道的合资合作。中国企业在基础设施建设领域有较强实力和丰富经验，葡语国家有广阔市场，双方在该领域的合作可以成为新的增长点。中方支持有条件的企业到葡语国家投资，也欢迎葡语国家的企业来华兴业，实现互利共赢。成都翻译公司

Second, promote two-way investment. Compared with what we have achieved in trade, we have not fully unleashed the potential of two-way investment. We need to improve the laws and regulations on mutual investment, remove investment barriers, facilitate negotiations on bilateral investment protection treaties and treaties on avoiding double taxation, and carry out investment promotion activities in multiple forms so that the two-way investment will achieve substantive growth as soon as possible. We should continue to enhance our investment cooperation on infrastructure, telecommunications, energy, agriculture and natural resources development, and encourage the small and medium-sized enterprises to cooperate through multiple channels. Chinese enterprises are competitive and experienced in infrastructure construction, while the Portuguese-speaking countries have big markets. This can become a new growth area in our cooperation. China supports competent Chinese enterprises in making investment in the Portuguese-speaking countries and welcomes companies from the Portuguese-speaking countries to start businesses in China in pursuit of mutual benefit and win-win outcomes.

第三，积极开拓新的合作领域。中国与葡语国家的合作不应局限于经贸、人力资源、基础设施等传统领域，还可以向其他领域扩展。中国与葡语国家旅游资源丰富，合作前景广阔，中方愿意推介葡语国家的旅游资源，支持更多葡语国家成为中国公民出境旅游目的地。双方企业和居民对交通运输合作的愿望日益强烈，各国政府要创造条件，支持企业建立便捷畅通的物流网络，开通更多直航航线。要进一步深化金融合作，加强各国中央银行、监管当局的交流，推动政策性银行和商业银行的合作，鼓励择机互设银行分支机构，为中葡经贸合作提供重要支撑。与此同时，要积极拓展双方在教育、文化、卫生、体育等社会事业领域的务实合作，以加深双方人民相互了解和友谊。成都翻译公司

Third, actively explore new areas of cooperation. Cooperation between China and the Portuguese-speaking countries should not be limited to such traditional areas as economy and trade, human resources and infrastructure. It should be expanded to new areas. Both China and the Portuguese-speaking countries are rich in tourism resources and our cooperation in this field has broad prospects. China will promote tourism resources of the Portuguese-speaking countries and support more Portuguese-speaking countries in getting the Approved Destination Status (ADS) for Chinese tourists. Businesses and the general public of the two sides have a strong desire for transport cooperation. Governments should create conditions and support the businesses in establishing convenient and smooth logistic networks and opening more direct flights. We should deepen financial cooperation, increase exchanges between our central banks and regulatory authorities, facilitate cooperation between policy and commercial banks, and encourage the establishment of branches of banks in each other's countries at appropriate times with a view to providing important support for our economic cooperation and trade. At the same time, we should make active efforts to expand practical cooperation in education, culture, health, sports and other social programs to enhance the mutual understanding and friendship between our peoples.

第四，充分发挥澳门的合作平台作用。澳门拥有东西方文化交融的独特优势，拥有完善的基础设施、完备的金融服务体系和自由开放的商业环境，拥有大量中葡双语专业人才，正在成为中葡经贸合作的重要平台。中国政府全力支持澳门与葡语国家的经贸交流，鼓励中国企业借助澳门平台与葡语国家企业开展多种形式的交流合作。希望论坛各与会国继续利用好这个平台，推动建立更紧密的经贸合作关系。澳门特区政府要继续发挥自身优势，为落实论坛各项目标提供良好服务，使中葡论坛成为中国与葡语国家经贸往来和友好合作的桥梁。成都翻译公司

Fourth, bring into full play Macao's role as the cooperation platform. Macao has the unique advantage of being a place where Eastern and Western cultures meet. It has sound infrastructure, a sophisticated financial services system, a free and open business environment and a reservoir of Chinese-Portuguese bilingual professionals. Macao is becoming an important platform for economic cooperation and trade between China and the Portuguese-speaking countries. The Chinese government gives full support to economic exchanges and trade between Macao and the Portuguese-speaking countries, and encourages Chinese companies to pursue various forms of exchanges and cooperation with their counterparts from those countries via the platform of Macao. We hope that the participating countries of the Forum will continue to make good use of this platform and strive for even closer business ties. The Macao SAR government should continue to give full play to its advantages, provide good services for the implementation of the goals of the Forum, and make the Forum a bridge for the business exchanges and friendly cooperation between China and the Portuguese-speaking countries.成都翻译公司

女士们，先生们：

Ladies and Gentlemen,

葡萄牙语中有一句富有哲理的俚语：“合作是生命的港湾”。发展中国与葡语国家的经贸合作，符合双方的根本利益，是大势所趋、人心所向。我衷心希望中葡论坛各与会国顺应时代的潮流和人民的意愿，坚持多元合作，促进共同发展，将中葡论坛办出特色、办出实效、办出水平，共同谱写中国-葡语国家经贸合作的新篇章！

A philosophical saying in Portuguese reads, "Cooperation is the port of life". To advance the economic cooperation and trade between China and the Portuguese-speaking countries is in the fundamental interest of both sides. It meets the call of our times and the wish of our people. I sincerely hope that all the participating countries of the Forum will follow the historical trend and the will of the people, promote common development through diversified cooperation, make the Forum a high-quality one with distinctive features and practical results, and work together to write a new chapter in our economic cooperation and trade.

预祝本届部长级会议圆满成功！

I wish this ministerial conference full success.

谢谢大家！

Thank you.
