Hainan, China: Where Opportunity Knocks | Former Spanish FM urges young people to seize opportunities in Hainan Free Trade Port

Recently, the Hainan International Media Center (HIMC) conducted an exclusive interview with former Spanish Foreign Minister Arancha González Laya. In the interview, she shared in-depth insights on how Hainan can leverage its strengths during this period of globalization to attract European businesses and tourists, while drawing lessons from Spain's successful experiences to drive economic growth.

González Laya highlighted Hainan's unique advantages in logistics and transportation as a free trade port. She suggested that Hainan should learn from Spain's thriving tourism industry by clearly defining its value proposition of offering a fresh and pleasant environment, a commitment to green and sustainable development, and a high-quality shopping experience to attract more visitors.

González Laya, commenting on Hainan's special customs policies, emphasized three key factors for successful implementation: operational efficiency, cost reduction, and a focus on innovation. She also encouraged young people to boldly pursue their dreams, take initiative, and seize the opportunities brought by the development of Hainan's Free Trade Port.
