Zhejiang is one of the provinces heavily engaged in international trade, and its businesses are quickly resuming operations. 

Jiang Jindong, vice-president of Zhejiang Panshi Information Technology Co, an internet company based in Hangzhou, said on Monday that over 90 percent of its workforce in China has returned to work, and the company is sparing no effort in enhancing anti-epidemic endeavors involving its 1,500 workers abroad. 

"Our overseas branches in countries such as India and Vietnam were also hit by the pandemic, and the pandemic has made it difficult to undertake overseas marketing campaigns due to border controls," said Jiang, who is also vice-chairman of the Zhejiang Chamber of International Commerce.
