15 Your Exellencies, distinguished guests, my lords, ladies and gentlemen, it is with great pleasure that I welcome you tonight to this magnificent castle. We warmly welcome you and your distinguished delegation to Wales. Wales is a small country compared with China. However, the Welsh people have made a significant contribution to the development of the United Kingdom and to the part the UK has played throughout the world.  诸位阁下，贵宾们，勋爵们，女士们，先生们，我非常高兴在这里欢迎各位今晚到这座雄伟的城堡来。我们热烈欢迎你们和你们尊贵的代表团来访咸尔士。威尔士与中国相比是个小地方。但是，威尔士人民对英国的发展作出了重要贡献，在英国的国际角色中也作出了重要的贡献。

16 Welsh companies make an important cotribution to the United Kingdom economy. Some are represented here this evening. Many already trade with China. Many more would like to do so. This is one aspect of the growing relationship between our two countries. China is a focal point for trade and investment from Wales. Wales' exports to China are valued at over ￡250 million. It's good, but not good enough. I would encourage Welsh companies to do better.  威尔士的公司为英国经济作出了重要贡献。有些公司的代表今晚就在场。许多威尔士的公司已经和中国有贸易关系。希望与中国交易的公司远不止这些。这是我们双方关系发展的一个方面。中国是威尔士贸易和投资的一个焦点。威尔士对华出口价值2.5亿多英镑。局面很好，但还不够。我希望威尔士的公司更上一层楼。

17 I would also ask you, Mr Chairman, to help increase the awareness of Wales among Chinese companies, particularly among Chinese companies that are considering their first move into Europe. Fr many years, Wales has been one of the most popular destinations for foreign investment in Europe. Investors in Wales have brought over ￡12 billion into the country and continue to reinvest once established.  我想请你，主席先生，为在中国公司中提高对威尔士的认识助一臂之力，尤其是那些正在考虑打入欧洲的中国公司。多年来，威尔士一直是外国在欧洲投资最受欢迎的地方之一。投资者给威尔士带来了120亿英镑，继续追加投资。

18 Investors are not limited to US and Europe
Investors are not limited to US and Europe. Many companies from the Far East have chosen to establish their European operations here. Our Welsh Development Agency has set up an office in China. It demonstrates our commitment to your country. Meanwhile, Welsh companies are increasingly focused on outward investment and establishig joint ventures with partners in China. China's accession to the World Trade Organization will present new opportunities for both our economies.  投资者不限于美国和欧洲。许多远东的公司也已选择威尔士作为它们在欧洲开展业务的地点。我们的威尔士工商发展局已经在中国设立了办公室。这表明了我们对中国的决心。同时，威尔士公司越来越注重对外投资，与中国伙伴建立合资企业。中国加入世界贸易组织后，将给双方经济带来新的机遇。

19 Developing special relationships with China is something to which we attach great importance, not only through trade but in other areas such as science, education and justice. Recently, the Welsh Science Mission visited China. The visit raised Wales' profile with the Chinese scientific community. It also established an exchange scheme in which Welsh scientists will benefit. 发展与中国的特别关系是我们非常重视的事情。不仅要通过贸易，而且要通过科学、教育和司法渠道发展特别关系。最近，威尔士科学考察团访问了中国。这次访问提高了威尔士在中国科学界的地位，并建立起一个威尔士科学家们将从中获益的交流项目。

20 The warm reception the delegation received in China was a clear signal of the highly productive relationshipa which Wales and China have developed. During the visit, we signed a Memorandum of Understanding with our Chinese counterparts in the scientific community. This will encourage and facilitate greater scientific co-operation between China and Wales. I understand that tomorrow morning, there will be several working group meetings to explore other areas of common interest. I look forward to receiving their report in due course. 代表团在中国受到的热烈欢迎清楚地显示，威尔士和中国之间已经建立起富有成果的关系。访华期间，我们与中国科学界的对应单位签署了理解备忘录。这将鼓励并促进中国和威尔士之间更多的科学合作。我知道明天上午将举行多个工作小组会议，探讨共同感兴趣的领域。我期待着看到有关会议成果的报告。

21 Mr Chairman, as you are aware, there has been contact at miniosterial level. Not long ago, we were delighted to receive a visit from his Excellency Mr Wen Jiabao. As you know already, his visit was a great success. In return, our Deputy First Minister has just accpeted a generous invitation to lead a delegation to China later this year. They will be visiting Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. They are looking forward to the visit. 主席先生，如你所知，我们双方之间已经有了部长级的接触。不久前，我们很高兴地接待了来访的温家宝先生。你已经知道，他的访问非常成功。作为回应，我们的副首席部长刚刚接受了盛情邀请，将于今年晚些时候率团访华。他们将前往北京、上海和广州。他们正期待着这次访问。

22 These visits are clear signals of the highly productive relationship which Wales and China have developed. Judging by the crowd that have gathered here tonight, I am very confident that the relationship will continue to grow. Thank you for taking the time to include a visit to Wales in your busy and demanding programme. We are honoured by your presence here this evening and would ask you to take back with you the warmest good wishes from the people of Wales and the United Kingdom. May I now propose a toast. 这些访问清楚地显示，威尔士和中国之间已经发展出很有成果的关系。根据今晚在场的人数来看，我很有信心，这一关系将继续发展下去。感谢你们从紧张的日程中抽出时间访问威尔士。今晚有你们在场，我们感到很荣幸。我请你们把威尔士人民以及全英国人民的热情问候带回中国。请允许我祝酒。
