After President Hasebe’s welcome speech, Professor Pan, Director- General, talked about the background of this visit. On April 1st, 2017, the Chinese government announced that the government sets up a new economic special zone "Xiongan New Area" in the Hebei Province, located 100 km from Beijing and Tianjin and transfers part of non-capital function in Beijing. In connection with the relocation, Chinese Academy of Sciences undertook consulting services advising the central government on science and technology strategies. Since Japan has experience of urban relocation and is a developed country of problem solving, the delegation has visited Japanese affiliated ministries, universities, Tsukuba city office, private enterprises other than YNU in order to learn the experience of foreign countries.
