Laos Vientiane Saitha low-carbon demonstration zone project

Climate change is a grave challenge facing the international community and requires a concerted global response.  We will help recipient countries improve their capacity to cope with climate change through low-carbon material assistance. The development zone also actively cooperated with the environment ministries of China and Laos to carry out the construction of low-carbon demonstration zones, and in 2019, the development Zone was officially incorporated into one of China's 10 low-carbon demonstration zones in developing countries. At present, it has successfully applied for the second phase of about 40 million aid materials, creating the first project in the history of South-South cooperation foreign aid to receive the second phase aid in the same year.
