Rasmussen, on a working visit to China, said the BFA conference's theme of "green recovery" will surely usher new business opportunities between China and Denmark.

As a gesture of friendship and trust, Denmark is sending its internationally-renowned Little Mermaid statue to Shanghai.
Rasmussen said the statue will be the center of attraction at the Pavilion of Denmark during the upcoming Shanghai World Expo.
"It's our national treasure, and also a symbol for the 60-year China-Denmark relationship," he said.
