新西蘭最具有影響力的商業(yè)協(xié)會(huì)之一，新西蘭雇主和制造商協(xié)會(huì)首席執(zhí)行官歐百利(Brett O'Riley)近日接受中新網(wǎng)專訪時(shí)表示，在《區(qū)域全面經(jīng)濟(jì)伙伴關(guān)系協(xié)定》(RCEP)以及《中國-新西蘭自貿(mào)協(xié)定》框架下，中國和新西蘭有許多合作機(jī)會(huì)有待探索。

歐百利指出，新西蘭亟待向中國的園藝行業(yè)以及清潔技術(shù)行業(yè)學(xué)習(xí)經(jīng)驗(yàn)。他提到，中國企業(yè)的櫻桃室內(nèi)栽培技術(shù)給他留下了深刻印象。在氣候變化的大環(huán)境下，這項(xiàng)技術(shù)對(duì)保障糧食安全至關(guān)重要，而在新西蘭，這項(xiàng)技術(shù)還處于起步階段。

此外，歐百利還提到，相較亞太地區(qū)其他國家，中國在清潔技術(shù)領(lǐng)域已經(jīng)取得了巨大進(jìn)展，他希望中國與亞太地區(qū)其他國家攜手努力，減少碳足跡，共享綠色發(fā)展機(jī)會(huì)。

Through RCEP and the free trade agreement that New Zealand and China have in place, there are many opportunities for the two countries to explore, said Brett O'Riley, chief executive of the Employers & Manufacturers Association (EMA), New Zealand's largest business association, in an interview with China News Network.

O'Riley pointed out that New Zealand can draw experiences from China in areas like horticulture and clean energy. He mentioned that the technology of indoor cherry cultivation by Chinese enterprises has left a deep impression on him. In the context of climate change, this technology is crucial for ensuring food security, while New Zealand is still in the early stages of this technology.

Additionally, O'Riley noted that China has made tremendous progress in clean technology. He hopes that China can work together with other countries in the Asia-Pacific region to help improve the environment, reduce carbon footprint, and　expand those opportunities to some of the smaller countries.
