Brazil Lobbies China to Help Build Railways, Spur Exports March 23 (Bloomberg) -- Brazil is lobbying China to help finance improvements of railroads, roads and farms in South America's largest economy and better enable the nation to meet surging Chinese demand for its exports. Brazil's Foreign Minister Celso Amorim, on a three-day visit to Beijing, is promoting projects to speed the flow of Brazilian goods such as soybeans and meat to China. Amorim, whose visit ends Wednesday, also proposed jointly searching for uranium in Brazil during meetings with Ma Kai, China's top planning official, Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing and Premier Wen Jiabao, Brazilian embassy officials in Beijing including Paulo Joppert, first secretary in charge of political affairs, said. Sales to China are fueling record exports for Brazil, whose president, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, is targeting trade with the Asian country to revive his nation's economy. Lula is seeking financing for infrastructure as bottlenecks on roads, railways and ports make it difficult to ship more goods abroad. quote.bloomberg.com
