Pogodbenici spodbujata razvoj gospodarskih odnosov med državama v skladu z načelom enakosti in obojestranske koristi.

Pogodbenici na podlagi svojih veljavnih zakonov in predpisov spodbujata družbe, podjetja in organizacije obeh držav, da razvijajo različne oblike gospodarskega sodelovanja, in ustvarjata ugodne razmere za to.

Družbe, podjetja in organizacije obeh držav, ki se ukvarjajo z gospodarsko dejavnostjo s tujino, upoštevajo veljavne zakone in predpise svojih držav in mednarodne prakse.

Pogodbenici se ob upoštevanju sedanjega stanja in prihodnjih gospodarskih odnosov strinjata, da obstajajo možnosti za morebitno dolgoročno sodelovanje med drugim na teh področjih: – industrija in rudarstvo, – kmetijstvo, vključno s kmetijsko dejavnostjo, – znanost in tehnologija, – energetika, – komunikacije, – prevoz, – varstvo okolja, – sodelovanje v tretjih državah.

Ob upoštevanju razvoja gospodarskega sodelovanja pogodbenici spodbujata medsebojno izmenjavo informacij zlasti o svojih zakonodajah in gospodarskih programih in tudi drugih informacij skupnega interesa.

1. Pogodbenici se dogovorita o ustanovitvi skupne komisije o gospodarskem sodelovanju (v nadaljevanju »skupna komisija«), ki jo sestavljajo predstavniki obeh vlad. Sopredsednika skupne komisije sta na ravni generalnega direktorja, pristojnega za gospodarske odnose s tujino in trgovino. 2.

Skupna komisija se sestaja letno, izmenično v glavnih mestih Ljudske republike Kitajske in Republike Slovenije. Če se pogodbenicama zdi potrebno, lahko skupna komisija za pomoč pri svojem delu ustanovi delovne skupine.
