BEIJING has made no secret of its ambitions to grow its economy — and it is encouraging all Chinese people to do their bit.

The Asian powerhouse is calling overseas citizens of Chinese descent to participate in its “economic development” and have come up with a new way to help make that happen.

Authorities have introduced a new five-year visa which aims to make it easier for foreign people of Chinese descent to enter the country for longer periods of time.

The visas, which take effect from February 1, will be offered to people of Chinese origin and will allow them to stay for five years and enter multiple times over this period.

According to the South China Morning Post, applicants must have either a parent, grandparent or ancestor who is a Chinese citizen to be eligible.

Applicants must also be able to prove this with official documentation such as a passport or identity card.

The changes were announced by the Ministry of Public Security last week.

Qu Yunhai, the head of the ministry’s bureau of exit and entry administration, was direct in the visa’s intention.

He said the policy aimed to encourage more Overseas Chinese to “participate in China’s economic development”.

Authorities hope the new visa will encourage more Chinese people overseas to do business and live in China.
