NANNING, May 29 (Xinhua) -- In recent years, Guangxi has sought ocean-oriented development opportunities and promoted open development, so as to make greater achievements in promoting high-quality development in border areas with large ethnic minority populations.

Guangxi is an important gateway for China's opening-up and its cooperation with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries, and a pivotal hub along the New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor.

Launched in 2017, the New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor is a trade and logistics passage jointly built by provincial-level regions in western China and ASEAN members, which has greatly empowered Guangxi's economic transformation and promoted its economic growth.
