made this remark on the Israel Telecommunication and IT Seminar held Monday.
Over 20 Israeli companies and 50 Chinese companies in the information
industry attended the seminar. Representatives from Israeli companies introduced
to their Chinese counterparts the state-of-the-art products and technologies in

Li said Sino-Israeli trade volume has been growing at an annual growth rate

in telecommunication service, software security and semi-conductor industry,
Israel exports products and technologies to over 200 countries and regions.
