Sino-Kazakh cooperation expands into new sectors

With major projects including those linking transportation in China and Kazakhstan progressing, cooperation between the two neighbors has gone far beyond oil and gas, Kazakh President Nursultan Abishevich Nazarbayev said on Friday.

Nazarbayev is in China to attend the annual Boao Forum from April 6 to 8 in Hainan province, and to meet President Xi Jinping.

Bilateral cooperation beyond oil and gas "is taking center stage", Nazarbayev told China Daily, adding that both countries are already undertaking large-scale projects.
