South China's Guangdong province remained a prime destination for foreign investment during the beginning of the year, indicating that global enterprises continue to have a positive outlook on Guangdong and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
Zhu Xiaojun, deputy director of the Guangdong Provincial Department of Commerce, said the global production base attracted 3,484 new foreign-funded enterprises with an actual foreign investment of 23.31 billion yuan ($3.21 billion) in the first two months, up 16.8 percent and 5.9 percent year-on-year, respectively.
According to Zhu, the growth outperforms the national average and major economic provinces, demonstrating Guangdong's strong foreign investment attraction and economic vitality.
The province has effectively helped promote multiple high-quality projects to increase capital and expand production since last May, with the help of a new round of foreign investment incentive policies, he said.
Zhu made the remarks at a news conference in the Guangdong provincial capital, Guangzhou, on Monday.

外商投资是发展新质生产力和实现中国式现代化的有力支撑。习近平总书记强调“我们要推进高水平对外开放，依托我国超大规模市场优势，以国内大循环吸引全球资源要素，既要把优质存量外资留下来，还要把更多高质量外资吸引过来，提升贸易投资合作质量和水平”。广东省委、省政府把利用外资作为推进外贸、外资、外包、外经、外智“五外联动”的重要组成部分进行统筹安排，努力营造一流营商环境，全力支持外资企业在粤发展壮大。
去年5月，广东出台了新一轮外资激励政策，有力推动了一批优质项目增资扩产。今年前两个月，省内实际到资超1亿美元的外资项目达7家、实际外资15亿美元。
其中，位于广州经开区的百济神州持续加码创新药研发投入，该公司在中新广州知识城建设的大分子生物药生产基地达产后，将助力该公司成为中国PD-1单抗药物产能最大的企业。
