It says the Russian St. Petersburg Municipal Government Information and Consulting Center in Changsha will be settled at Changsha National Hi-Tech Industrial Development Zone in the second half of this year. 

The center started preparations in last October, during which a series of exchange activities was held.

After establishment, the center will have three divisions, two sections, and one office: the divisions of economy, trade, and investment; culture, tourism, and education; and general affairs; the sections of liaison and organization; and the office. 

The center is a foreign resident agency of St. Petersburg City, under the jurisdiction of the St. Petersburg Liaison Committee. It aims to introduce the City to China, so as to promote Sino-Russian pragmatic cooperation in economic and trade, science and technology, society, and civilization.
