China will further expand its market access in manufacturing and financial and other services to worldwide investors to continue its opening-up, Premier Li Keqiang said on Monday.

Li made the remark when he jointly met the media with Mark Rutte, prime minister of the Netherlands, in The Hague.

Li said agreements worthy of close to $10 billion dollars are expected to be reached between businesses of both sides during his visit.

"This shows that China is opening its market wider to the Netherlands. It also demonstrates that we have big potential for cooperation," Li said.

Li told reporters that some European companies have already benefited from China's new opening-up efforts in easing equity share limits in basic manufacturing industries.

The country's opening-up policy provides a level playing field for businesses from all countries, he said. Businesses worldwide are expected to take advantage of the possibilities created by China's new round of reform and opening-up, enabling mutual benefit and common development, he said.
