North China's Inner Mongolia autonomous region announced Wednesday it plans to implement 890 major infrastructure projects this year, with an investment of about 130 billion yuan (about $18.41 billion).

Infrastructure construction has gathered pace across China as the government ramped up funding to spur investment in the sector following basic containment of the novel coronavirus outbreak.

The cargo throughput of Yantai port in East China's Shandong province reached 79 million tons in the first quarter of 2020.

Some 90 tons of medical equipment and medical supplies will be flown to Australia on three charter flights by China Eastern, according to Australian iron ore magnate Andrew Forrest.
