high-performance semi-steel radial tires and 900,000 all-steel radial tires.
This investment in the production of the tire brand is mainly "Qian

Cambodia that has signed a bilateral governmental agreement. It has brought a
tangible sense of fulfillment and happiness to its employees and the people
around it. So far, 170 enterprises (institutions) from China, Europe, the
United States, Southeast Asia and other countries and regions have achieved
win-win development here, creating nearly 30,000 jobs. The industrial output value
contributes more than 50% to the economy of Sihanoukian Province.
