China, Japan, ROK working together to advance FTA development: premier

BEIJING, May 28 (Xinhua) -- China, Japan and the Republic of Korea (ROK) are working closely together to advance their free trade agreement (FTA) development, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang said Thursday.

Li made the remarks at a press conference held after the conclusion of the national legislative session.

"The three countries are close neighbors, and we would like to establish a mini-pattern for the three markets to boost each other amid the global economic cooperation," Li said.

For example, China and the ROK recently opened a fast-track service for personnel interflow in commerce, technology and other areas, which will facilitate work and production resumption, Li added. Enditem
