On September 17, the 22nd China–ASEAN Expo and the China–ASEAN Business and Investment Summit opened in Nanning, Guangxi. This year’s Expo and Summit, themed “Data‑intelligence Empowering Development, Innovation Leading the Future — Leveraging New Opportunities from the China–ASEAN Free Trade Area 3.0 to Build a Community with a Shared Future,” brought together 60 countries and 3,260 enterprises to celebrate and comprehensively showcase the fruitful results and vast potential of China–ASEAN cooperation.

This year marks the signing of the Protocol for the China–ASEAN Free Trade Area 3.0. As an important platform for advancing higher-quality China–ASEAN economic and trade cooperation, the event not only injects new momentum into the Belt and Road Initiative but also provides a high-end, international showcase for China’s commercial vehicle industry. Riding this opportunity, Ankai Bus unveiled two innovative models — the luxury highway coach N12 and the stand-free city bus E70 — demonstrating the strength of “Made in China” through outstanding design and leading technology.

China and ASEAN are neighbors joined by land and water, good friends, and good partners. In recent years both sides have actively deepened friendly cooperation, strengthened mutual understanding and trust, and advanced shared development and revitalization. As a pioneer among Chinese busmakers expanding into overseas markets, Ankai Bus has actively moved into the ASEAN market, supporting the steady internationalization of Chinese manufacturing and empowering the vigorous development of ASEAN transportation.

Standing at a new starting point for international cooperation, Ankai Bus will continue to drive progress through R&D, adopt a global perspective, stay attuned to the times, and accelerate overseas expansion. The company will keep increasing investment in product development and technology, actively promote new mobility solutions, and help “Made in China” reach an even broader world.
