In late April, the "China Automotive and International Market High-Level Forum," organized by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, brought together representatives from Pakistan, Vietnam, and Russia. Each country expressed strong interest in Chinese automotive products and welcomed Chinese automakers to invest and establish factories within their borders. Collaborations have already begun through joint ventures and various forms of cooperation. Russia, in particular, has seen a steady rise in demand for foreign vehicles. In 2003, around 170,000 new foreign cars were sold—up from 110,000 in 2001. According to Lukashen, a Russian business representative in China, China's rapid growth in automotive manufacturing and its advanced technology could significantly benefit Sino-Russian collaboration in this sector. China has already successfully integrated Russian "Ural" off-road vehicle chassis technology, and last year produced a large number of "Ural-North" off-road trucks. Recently, Changchun FAW Group announced plans to use the "Ural" chassis to develop new models, with implementation set to begin later this year. Meanwhile, "Outside Volga Engine Factory" and Nanjing Iveco are working on a joint project to install Russian 2.4- to 2.6-liter engines in locally produced "Iveco" vans. Both sides are also exploring cooperative production projects in Russia. Pakistan’s ambassador to China, Amin, highlighted the country’s openness to Chinese investment. He emphasized that Pakistan is keen to see China play a larger role in regional economic development. Three main factors make Pakistan attractive to Chinese investors: first, Chinese companies are well-acquainted with the local market, with over 60 Chinese firms already operating there; second, Pakistan offers a vast market and strategic access to India and the Middle East due to improving bilateral relations; third, the country provides favorable investment conditions, including free capital movement and tax incentives. With a GDP growth rate of 6%, Pakistan is one of Asia’s fastest-growing economies. Chinese motorcycles have long been popular there, and now there is a growing demand for cars, trucks, and affordable domestic brands. The government encourages local manufacturing and offers preferential tariffs on imported parts, except for some localized components. Vietnam has also become a key destination for Chinese automakers. However, recent policy changes have limited the approval of new foreign automobile assembly plants to support local industry growth. According to Pan Yubao, the Vietnamese commercial counselor in China, Vietnam is expected to need 650,000 vehicles by 2005, with 40% being passenger cars and 60% commercial vehicles. Currently, there are 11 foreign and 5 domestic assembly plants. Chinese companies can still collaborate through two main avenues: exporting auto parts and technologies to local manufacturers or forming joint ventures with Vietnamese partners. Additionally, the Tonghuang Automotive Industry Park, launched in 2003, presents a promising opportunity for Chinese firms to expand their presence in Vietnam. The first phase includes projects such as a Hyundai Motor plant, a diesel engine factory, and other automotive component manufacturers, with a total investment of $52 million.
