China Reform Holdings Corporation and China Tourism Group, both state-owned entities, will inject 5 billion yuan each.
The move is part of long-standing China’s efforts to diversify ownership structures among its state-owned enterprises and comes at a critical time after China Eastern posted a net loss of 8.5 billion yuan in the first half due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
China Southern Airlines (SS:600029) also announced last year that it would receive a capital injection of 30 billion yuan from three investors.
