China mulling setting up learning centre in Chennai
Chennai (PTI): With the number of Chinese students seeking IT education in Tamil Nadu and the interest among the local people to know more about China increasing, Beijing is mulling to set up a Chinese learning centre here.
Chinese Ambassador to India Zheng Yan on Saturday said, "The centre is likely to come up in Chennai."
Mr. Zheng told reporters here after paying a courtesy call on Janata Party president Subramanian Swamy that the economic relations between India and China were fast expanding and expressed his country's desire to invest in Tamil Nadu.
Hailing the industrial environment in Chennai, Mr. Zheng said Chinese businessmen and industrialists could head to Tamil Nadu to set up units.
Bilateral trade had touched USD 52 billion last year, growing by 34 per cent from the previous fiscal, he said.
Describing Swamy as a "great friend", of the Communist nation, Mr. Zheng said his country "will not forget him".
After his meeting with Mr. Zheng, Mr. Swamy told PTI that besides wanting to know about the favourable areas of business investment, the Chinese Ambassador also discussed "international matters of mutual interest" with him.
