I’m confident with China’s future economic development.

Well, I mean there are some challenges for us in terms of operating in certain markets, but I see that the government is moving in the right direction and also giving more opportunities for stronger collaboration between the international companies and local companies.

We feel welcome in China... We have 35,000 people working here and most of them are Chinese.

We have plan of investing in all our businesses. We are looking into also the industry 4.0 area. We have recently built a brand-new industry 4.0 plant in Chengdu. There are still more to come.

The Chinese economy is playing a tremendously important role in the world economy. It is the way it’s interconnected in terms of trading, the products, but it is also the way it is growing as it is the second-largest economy in the world. So it is a very important role. We still count on China.
