Asia-Pacific
For many years the Asia-Pacific region has been the world region with the highest dynamic economic growth. Issues relating to Asia therefore have a correspondingly high priority on the BDI agenda, key topics being the promotion of SMEs, trade and climate and innovation. Since the Asia-Pacific Committee of German Business (APA) was founded, the BDI has been in charge of the coordination of the APA in Germany.
"China and Germany – two partners who together represent cutting-edge innovation," said APA Chairman Peter Löscher on the occasion of the opening of the Hannover Messe with partner country China.
The great attraction of the Chinese market also became clear when the German Chancellor visited China with a business delegation at the beginning of February.
Compared with other East Asian nations Korea survived the financial and economic crisis well. The export sector was able to gain a larger share in the global markets in 2008/2009 with the help of their weakened currency, the South Korean Won.
China is Germany’s most important economic partner in Asia.
Despite the serious consequences of the Tohoku earthquake on 11 March 2011 Japan is still one of the most important economies in the world. The declared objective of German business is to further develop the traditional ties.
