China’s Prime Minister Li Keqiang has called India and China as natural co-operation partners and emphasised on the need to increase trade and business relations between the two countries.

Addressing industrialists at Mumbai’s Taj Hotel yesterday, Mr. Li identified information technology, agriculture and pharmaceuticals as India's strengths and lamented low Chinese investments in the country.

He said that Chinese and Indian businesses have a strong sense of morality and there was no reason why business cooperation between the two countries should suffer.

He added that there is space for Chinese investments in India and also invited Indian investments into his country.
