Cambodia delivered its first batch of fresh mango exports directly to China on Friday, as the agricultural cooperation between the two countries has increased year by year.
Several Chinese fruit vendors told the Global Times on Tuesday that the sales of imported mangos, bananas, durians and other fruits have seen a rise as summer approaches.
These were the latest examples of fruit exports from countries under the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) to China, indicating the fruit trade is now effective and has become a driver of trade growth.
