How do the new government procurement regulations in China aim to attract foreign investment, and what specific changes have been introduced?

The decrease in FDI is partly due to a slowing global economy and increased investor caution stemming from global production chain disruptions. China's response involves streamlining market access, guaranteeing national treatment for foreign firms in government procurement, and easing restrictions in sectors like telecommunications and healthcare. These measures aim to attract more foreign investment and stimulate economic growth.

What specific criteria in the tender exclude smaller operators, and how does this affect competition and reservists' choices?

The NIS 750 million tender, part of a reservist support program, requires participating companies to have a turnover of NIS 150 million in 2022-2023, a comprehensive website and call center, and fully online booking capabilities. This effectively excludes most small businesses, particularly the 5,300 out of 6,500 guesthouses in the Golan Heights and Galilee.
