It was well evidenced by the increased numbers of participants in the fair.

In this regard, Zaytsev Dmitry of the Export Development Center of Primorsky Territory in Russia told KCNA:

Three companies of the Center have participated in the fair.

It is first time for me to take part in such big fair held in the DPRK.

I have seen and learnt a lot. In particular, I think that the economic potentials of the DPRK are great and its economy would be boosted.

I would do my best to encourage my friends, businessmen and territory administration to make close cooperation with the DPRK enterprises in economic and other fields.

I am sure that Russia will become a reliable economic and trade partner of the DPRK.

Edwin Lee, a manager of the Pan Systems PTE Ltd. of Singapore, said:

We have been here already so many times. But this is first time for me to come to this fair. Freely speaking, I am surprised even for the last day that the crowd is so many. The economy of the country is definitely coming out. Things have changed a lot. I could see that the economy is going to be getting more and more booming.

Businessmen from Cuba and Malaysia also expressed their pleasure to take part in the fair and their will to make active cooperation with the DPRK in the fields of economy and trade.
