No policy change on foreign investment in property sector
By Hu Yuanyuan (chinadaily.com.cn)
Updated: 2008-12-22 17:24 At present, the government has no plans to change its policies on foreign institutions' investment into China's property sector but may take a more flexible approach in the approval process, sources told China Daily today. "So far, we haven't received any order to revise relevant policies on foreign investors' entry into the real estate sector," said an official from the Ministry of Commerce, who declined to be named.
In the past few months, the Chinese government has launched a slew of measures to revitalize the property sector which is one of the biggest drivers of domestic consumption, contributing a quarter of all fixed-asset investments and employing 77 million people. However, none of these measures involves foreign institutions' investment into the property sector. "Before the government sees a clear trend of the foreign capital's flow, it will not rush into a decision on this problem," a source with the China Real Estate Association told China Daily. The association has proposed many ways to reactivate the property sector to the State Council, China's cabinet, with most of them eventually adopted. But among their proposals, none concerned the entry of foreign investment into the property sector, the source said. "We do notice that some foreign capital is fleeing, but at the same time, some new comers also plan to enter the Chinese market since the property price is at a comparatively low level," said the source.
