Mrs.Haini Wang
Graduate of Babson College, USA, (Cum Laude), ranked first in Entrepreneurship for over two decades by US News and World Report.
Experience in the property development and tourism sectors in Cyprus and in China, dealing with the Chinese market.
I currently work for the Cyprus Chamber of Commerce and Industry
providing services as the only Chinese speaking person at the China
Desk. A sample of my main activities while at the CCCI is given below:
Organizing and hosting meetings, events and seminars for various Chinese
speaking groups and delegations, both those resident in Cyprus and
those coming from China for business, as required by CCCI. Events are
held all over Cyprus and in China.
I act as a liaison and mediator also doing translation, interpretation
and facilitating negotiations between various Chinese, Cypriot and
foreign stakeholders. These parties are important for the general
business and cultural activities on the island. For example, between the
CCCI and the Chinese Embassy or the Confucius Institute, between
private banks and the Chinese Embassy, between private developers and
their customers, between law firms and their clients, between Chinese
businesses wanting to establish a presence in Cyprus and the Cypriot
government, between the CCCI and various Chinese Chambers of Commerce
and Industry, between municipal governments in Cyprus and various
Chinese municipal governments, between Cypriot and Chinese cultural
institutions as well as many other parings.
It can be said that I may be involved at some level in many proceedings
which are important for business, culture and government involving the
interaction of Cyprus with China. In such proceedings a person who
speaks both English and Chinese, is familiar with both China and Cyprus
and also has the necessary ability and mentality to accomplish the tasks
at hand is someone whose involvement is required. During these
procedures I directly interact with high level government officials and
recognizable businessmen, such as mayors in both Cyprus and China,
ministers, national level governmental officials, CEOs of banks and
other large nationally known enterprises etc.
I have provided interpretation and facilitation for articles appearing
in national and local newspapers in Cyprus such as Politis, Adesmeftos
etc. I have interviewed the Chinese ambassador and officials from the
Cyprus Ministry of Cultural for China Central Television channel 6.
I was editor in chief of the first Chinese language newspaper licensed by the PIO and available in print and online.
