The China-South Asia Expo and Kunming Trade Fair are two investment extravaganzas designed to further integrate the Spring City's economy with those of China's southern neighbors.

This year, the expo theme revolves around President Xi Jinping's proposed Southern Silk Road initiative.

As in years past, businessmen small and large will attend, selling everything from wooden furniture and carpets to industrial mining equipment and logistics supply chains.

For full details, see GoKunming's preview of the event.

For those wanting to attend, 30 yuan single entry tickets are on sale now at all China Post Office locations.
