To all peers in the gases industry, have you ever envisioned several important events in global trade and economy in the past decade, such as the impact of trade frictions between China and the United States on your business? Does the second "Snake Swallow Elephant" of the gases industry (Linde merges Praxair) and Chinese gas giant--Yingde's $1 billion investment in India enlighten you? Do you dare to predict what major events will happen in the gases industry in 2020 and onwards, and how will you take action?
With the entry to New Year's Day 2020, there are a lot of exciting events. You must be looking forward to what good things matter within the sight! Right.
Here, I would like to remind you that 15 RCEP members jointly announced the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement in Bangkok on November 4, 2019. The signing of the agreement is expected to be completed in 2020. This is a joint agreement on the construction of a free trade zone with the largest population, the most diversified membership structure and the greatest potential for development in the world. The Agreement is initiated by ASEAN "10 + 1" and invites Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea and New Zealand to participate. It involves a free trade zone with 2.2 billion people, with US$29 trillion in GDP and US$5.6 trillion in exports, accounting for about 30 per cent of the global total. It can be seen that after the completion of this RCEP, it will become the largest free trade community in the world!
In 2020, we decided to choose Bangkok as the first stop to open up the world's largest free trade area aiming to help enterprises interested in going abroad open a trade door to the ASEAN market. If you sign up for IG ASIA 2020 – Southeast Asia’s First International Exhibition for Industrial Gases Production, Storage and Distribution, which will be held in Bangkok, Thailand on May 27-28, 2020, you and your company are really going to hit a record! Now let's listen to what the bosses of the exhibitors want to express for IG Asia 2020.
A Message from Mr. Andy Lau, Director of International Business Division of Guangdong Huate Gas Co., Ltd.
China's gases equipment and gases have completed the perfect transformation from the initial entire reliance on imports to the present substitute imports and a large number of exports abroad, whether it is our air separation equipment or special gas products, it is widely recognized in the international market, and many gas or gases equipment companies, including Guangdong HUATE GAS, have successfully sold gases and gases equipment products overseas through their own efforts, more than ever it directly set up factories abroad and has taken the international roadmaps.
Hangzhou Oxygen Air Separation has been leading the "cow" to go abroad to sell "milk". The "Stepping out" strategy has achieved very good results all over the world. BTIC- the cylinder packaging supplier and all kinds of tank tanks of CIMC are very popular in Asia, Europe and the Middle East, with a very good market share. Yingde Gas carried out the same strategy and has taken a lead in investing USD60 million to build a plant in India. Most domestic enterprises are looking forward to the overseas market.
The Chinese market is very large, and the international market is even bigger. There are also many successful cases of going to overseas markets, but this does not mean that all enterprises are suitable to go to sea directly. If you can borrow power, especially with the help of enterprises that have successfully gone to overseas markets, such as a free ride with Guangdong HUATE GAS, or with the help of IG CHINA's domestic and foreign resources, then it is bound to greatly improve the success rate of going to overseas markets. Finally, I wish IG Asia 2020 a good success!
