       On the 10th, it was learned from China Railway No.4 Engineering Group that nearly 20 Chinese enterprises made a collective appearance at the Middle East Rail and Rail Transit Exhibition, marking the first concentrated global showcase by Chinese rail transit enterprises in the Middle East.

According to reports, the 11th Middle East Rail and Rail Transit Exhibition concluded on the 8th local time at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre in the United Arab Emirates, with more than 400 enterprises from the global rail and rail transit sector exhibiting side by side. Among them, nearly 20 Chinese enterprises including China Railway, CRRC, and China Railway Signal & Communication made a collective appearance at the exhibition, the largest number of participating enterprises in the event's history.

As the intersection of the "Silk Road Economic Belt" and the "21st Century Maritime Silk Road," the Middle East enjoys obvious geographical advantages. During the exhibition, the pavilions of Chinese enterprises attracted onlookers from countries and regions in the Middle East, North Africa, Central Asia, and South Asia.

In recent years, China's high-speed rail technology has attracted global attention and recognition. Through years of uninterrupted independent innovation, the overall technical level of high-speed rail has entered the world's advanced ranks, and high-speed rail has become a shining "calling card" of Chinese technology, Chinese equipment, and Chinese manufacturing. The pace of China's high-speed rail going global is accelerating. From railway equipment manufacturing to railway infrastructure construction, and then to consulting and design services and investment and operation management, "high-speed rail going global" is gradually maturing, with its footprint expanded to dozens of countries.

Reporters learned from interviews that China Railway, participating in the exhibition for the first time, has undertaken railway and rail transit projects in many countries including Russia, Laos, Thailand, and Malaysia since the 1970s when it began building the 1,861-kilometer Tanzania-Zambia Railway. At this exhibition, the China Railway pavilion displayed a number of equipment, technologies, and management systems at internationally leading levels, such as the world's first large-section horseshoe-shaped shield tunneling machine independently developed and produced by China Railway, and the independently developed and manufactured GP500 long-rail track-laying machine with independent intellectual property rights.
