STORYLINE:

A Kenyan expert has hailed the China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS) as a green, innovative and inclusive platform for global cooperation.

This year's edition of the CIFTIS, one of the world's largest and most comprehensive fairs for trade in services, will be held in Beijing from Sept. 2 to 6.

The 2023 CIFTIS plans to introduce a carbon neutrality project to achieve zero carbon emissions at this year's event.

SOUNDBITE 1 (English): PATRICK MWANGI, International affairs analyst
"This is critical at this juncture. Huge events like this create a lot of carbon emissions and so it is very important and critical for the world that CIFTIS is breaking the ground in ensuring that the carbon footprints of major events like this globally are reduced or mitigated. So it's a major movement forward."

The expert also said that the CIFTIS offers an important platform for deepening cooperation and boosting trade between countries.

SOUNDBITE 2 (English): PATRICK MWANGI, International affairs analyst
"It is a critical platform for opening up China to the rest of the world, for deepening cooperation between East and West and trade between countries. It's also a platform for furthering green transformation in the world."
