A Major China–ASEAN Breakthrough: Communication 21 Media Group Signs Strategic Collaboration with China Zhenhua’s Subsidiary

Kuala Lumpur, 2nd December 2025 —Today marks a significant step forward for Communication 21 Media Group, as we officially entered a strategic collaboration with Guangxi Zhenhua International Trade Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of China Zhenhua Import & Export Co., Ltd, widely known as 中国振华 — a central state-owned enterprise, founded in 1984 in Beijing and one of China’s earliest national-level foreign trade institutions.

Our collaboration focuses on three major pillars to strengthen China–ASEAN commercial integration:

• Halal certification, logistics, and Halal trade for a wide range of Chinese products, including food, beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and medical devices

• High-level trade and business-matching events, where China Zhenhua hosts in China and Communication 21 mobilises verified overseas buyers from ASEAN and Belt & Road countries

• Expansion into additional cross-border cooperation fields, including trade facilitation, logistics channels, and international market development

This partnership aligns seamlessly with the 东盟互联互通倡议 (ASEAN-Connect Initiative) and the 中国至东盟倡议 (China-To-ASEAN Initiative), reinforcing our mission to connect China and ASEAN through credible buyers, real data, and meaningful commercial outcomes.

A strong foundation has been established today — and the opportunities ahead for China–ASEAN Halal trade, investment, and market expansion are substantial.
