* The United States continues to be China's fifth-largest source of FDI behind Hong Kong, the Virgin Islands, Japan, and South Korea.
* Issues likely to affect foreign investment in 2006 include the new labor contract law, the discontinuation of foreign-invested enterprise representative offices, the antimonopoly law, and the implementation of distribution rights.
* The PRC Ministry of Commerce announced that it will no longer publish contracted FDI values, a figure used by many analysts as an indicator of future investment.
