Life of Guangzhou - Asian Games to Create Logistics Cake

Guangzhou's hosting of the Asian Games in 2010 will create a logistics demand of about 21 billion Yuan, providing the Konggang Logistics Union in Huadu District with an unprecedented opportunity.

The Foundation Ceremony of the first logistics union in South China, the Guangzhou Huadu Konggang Logistics Union (also known as the Council Inauguration of the First Session), was held in Huadu District on August 4.
