China is keen to improve bilateral trade with Namibia and import more non-resource products from the African country, Commerce Minister Chen Deming said during a meeting with Namibian Prime Minister Hage Geingob on Tuesday.

China will urge more labor-intensive manufacturing companies to invest in Namibia to help the country reduce unemployment through vocational training, Chen said.

He also suggested the establishment of industrial parks and economic zones to give convenience for Chinese companies to invest in Namibia.
