After a year-long development, Fujian has seen several significant achievements of the Silk Road Maritime in terms of government policies, transportation infrastructure and international maritime cooperation, which have promoted Fujian's foreign exchange port affairs, logistics, as well as economy and trade.
It is noted that the first batch of six Silk Road Maritime express routes covering Southeast Asia and Europe had been officially launched at the forum.
