Live companies and other responses to tangible progress in global business

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect travel agencies, airlines and shipping companies, centrally managed state-owned enterprises have begun to announce advances at their overseas structure sites through online events.

China Communications Construction Co Ltd, based in Beijing, hosted an online event that expired last month to offer the public the chance to virtually visit the port city of Colombo, Sri Lanka.

At the event, Indeewari Amuwatte, a well-known Sri Lankan television news anchor, acted as a consultant to take others to the “city of the future” and show them the structure and progression of the assignment from other angles.

During transmission, he explained and demonstrated THE COVID-19 pandemic prevention measures followed by structured corporations on the site.

There are now 530 in the allocation under government pandemic prevention regulations that require strict compliance. They have been in paintings since the Sri Lankan government approved the resumption of paintings in early May, said Jiang Houliang, CCCC’s managing director for the assignment of Port City Colombo.

A cellular cabin buffer zone has been specially built to quarantine local workers returning to work. They are also provided with two tests of loose nucleic acids. So far, there is no COVID-19 infection at the site.

Amuwatte then visited the structure projects that added a navy, a synthetic canal, a b and a vehicle bridge, explaining the progress of the structure and the long-term plans for the area.

CCCC announced that the rehabilitation of the 269-hectare land is complete and that the entire port city, whose commercial, residential, recreational and entertainment functions, is expected to cover more than 5.7 million square meters, with more than 200,000 people running and living. in the area.

Once completed, it will evolve into the new Central Business District (CBD) of Colombo, the capital of Sri Lanka.

The local government said a total of $1.4 billion had been invested in the first allocation and more than $13 billion had been raised by the time of development.

As the allocation of foreign direct investment never made in the country, the Port City Colombo allocation will create more than 83,000 jobs, Jiang said.

Eager to allow the port city to play an important role as Dubai and Singapore do, the Sri Lankan government has turned the port city into a service hub and grocery shopping center, making the region an engine of the country’s economic and social development. The external monetary centre is also intended for the implementation of preferential policies to attract foreign investment.

Large-scale urban progression allocation is reversed, built and operated through China Harbour Engineering Co Ltd, a subsidiary of CCCC, in Beijing.

A key detail of Sri Lanka’s Vision 2030, Port City Colombo has been decided as one of the “five new cities to shake the future” through Forbes magazine in 2018.

During construction, which began in 2014, Jiang said that the CCCC had completed its day-to-day social work by organizing various public service activities, such as the “Fishermen’s Livelihood Improvement Program” and the Colombo Beautiful Beach Project, which gained local popular support.

CCCC is alone. China Civil Engineering Construction Corp (CCECC), a subsidiary of China Railway Construction Corp, 100, also hosted a media occasion on 24 July to show the Lagos-Ibadan rail assignment in Nigeria and the lives of staff on the site.

Their theme “Working together for a connected future” and presented with a vlog and live streaming in the cloud. Yakubu Adogie, an external link to the project, took the railroad and guided the foreign audience on a virtual tour through the front corridor and the shipping center at Lagos station.

Under his leadership, the audience learned about the coVID-19 structure prevention and control measures adopted in West Africa.

As the first double-track railway in West Africa to adopt Chinese standards, the 156-kilometer railway connects Lagos, a shopping mall and a port city, with the city of Ibadan.

The railway is expected to be operational until the end of this year. This will reduce the time between the two cities to less than two hours, facilitate cargo shipping to and from Lagos, and provide opportunities for space expansion along the line, said Li Depeng, CCECC’s project rate engineer.

Lagos Station, which is designed to accommodate up to 6,000 passengers, will be West Africa, he said.

Backed by mature virtual technologies, experience in forged structures, corporate social duty and long-term economic synergies, those open media occasions will be compelling to the symbol of Chinese corporations around the world, said Gao Lingyun, researcher at the Institute of Economics and Global Policy. at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences based in Beijing.
