Foreigners to Evaluate Investment Environment
The government of east China's Fujian Province has sent questionnaires to 5,000 foreign-funded companies throughout the area, asking them to grade the province's investment environment. Chen Jing, the official heading the provincial foreign investment office, told Xinhua that altogether there are 29,000 such companies in Fujian, 16,000 of which are in operation.

Companies surveyed in the cross-sector sample will be asked to comment on investment factors, terms, policies, laws, regulations, safety, tax and infrastructure.

In addition to mailed questionnaires, telephone interviews will be conducted.

Chen said that an efficient, transparent, regulated and unified investment environment has become essential since China became a member of the World Trade Organization.

From now on, the province will work with a market research company to establish an evaluation format. The results will be released to the media, said Chen.
