Over 65 percent of that investment came from deals in the manufacturing sector. The number of deals, the total investment figure and the manufacturing sector's share of the total investment have already hit record highs this year, organizers said. The 20th China-ASEAN Expo opened on Saturday, with nearly 2,000 enterprises in attendance. Participation is up 18.2 percent from last year's expo, which was attended by 1,653 enterprises.
