China's political advisers have called for more support to attract foreign experts to work in the nation.

"Foreign experts have played a very important role in the transformation of China's economic growth pattern," said Zhang Endi, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and a senior official of the China Zhi Gong Dang.

The party is composed of returned overseas Chinese, relatives of overseas Chinese and noted figures and scholars with overseas ties.
