China's economy has grown rapidly in the last 15 years, and service industry outsourcing has in recent years emerged as a new economic growth point, particularly inShanghai,Tianjin, Dalian and Shenzhen.

"We have great advantages in technology and human resources to compete and have a big share in the outsourcing service market," Zhang said.

One of the fastest developing and wealthy provinces in the country, Jiangsu boasts a large number of hi-tech enterprises and companies in information technology,software, electronic information and telecommunications.

Statistics show the province yielded revenue of $200 million from outsourcing services in 2006.

"We are not very happy with the figure in view of our economic strength because it was only a small fraction of ourgross domestic productlast year," said Zhang.

The provincial government is determined to take measures to boost the development of this new sector.

Apart from Nanjing, the provincial capital and one of a dozen State-designated outsourcing base cities, six cities - including Suzhou, Wuxi and Changzhou - were recently named provincial-level outsourcing base cities by the provincial department of foreign trade and economy.

Fifty companies out of 1,000 from these cities were chosen to be key outsourcing enterprises.
