We plan to expand into the highly important energy and oil markets in the region, and this is our first participation in the exhibition."

"Years ago, our focus was on the local market in China, but now we have a presence in many major markets worldwide, such as the US and Singapore. Therefore, the next step is to expand into the Middle East region," he added.
