On April 21, 2026, Mr. Korkij Danchaivichit, Deputy Secretary-General of Eastern Economic Corridor Office (EECO), welcomed Mr. Weiming Jiang, Chief Director of the Suzhou Industrial Park Investment Promotion Commission, together with his delegation, at the EEC Office in Bangkok.
Suzhou Industrial Park (SIP) is a national-level economic and industrial development zone of the People’s Republic of China, established in 1994 through cooperation between the governments of China and Singapore. It is widely recognized as a highly successful model of international collaboration and has consistently been ranked among China’s leading economic and technological development zones. SIP’s key strengths include its strategic location, convenient transportation networks, and comprehensive infrastructure. Its major industries encompass electronics, advanced machinery and equipment, nanotechnology, artificial intelligence, digital industries, new energy, and green industries.
During the meeting, both parties exchanged information and discussed approaches to promoting cooperation in economic, trade, and investment activities within the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC), as well as opportunities for future collaboration in the EEC area.
The visit aimed to gain in-depth insights into the EEC’s investment promotion policies, measures, and incentives for investors. In this regard, SIP expressed its willingness to support and promote the dissemination of information and enhance awareness of investment opportunities in the EEC among potential investors within SIP who are interested in overseas investment, thereby strengthening economic linkages between the EEC and Suzhou Industrial Park.
In addition, both sides exchanged views and perspectives on ways to promote cooperation in key target industries, including chemicals, the medical industry, new energy, artificial intelligence, modern services, and high-end manufacturing, which are aligned with the EEC’s strategic direction for targeted industry development.
The discussions marked another important step toward strengthening cooperation between the two economic zones and are expected to reinforce networks of collaboration in trade, investment, and modern industries, laying a solid foundation for sustainable economic growth in the long term.
