Chinese Embassy welcomes Pakistanis from different walks of life at Sangam Club Gala 2019

ISLAMABAD: Chinese Ambassador to Pakistan Yao Jing said he was looking forward much better Sino-Pak ties in the year 2020, particularly in social sector, and pushing forward industrialization in Pakistan. With the smooth implementation of the first phase of CPEC, their bilateral friendship has entered a new stage of enhanced cooperation.

The two sides will undertake joint ventures for development of free trade industrial zones, the Ambassador said while addressing a gathering of students, academia, diplomats and journalists gathered at the Annual Sangam Club Gala 2019 held here on Monday at the Chinese Embassy.

Yao Jing said that peace and prosperity will be the hallmark of the New Year, and the two countries would be making joint efforts to achieve this cherished goal and to further improve the living conditions of their people for a better life.

The two countries, he added, are struggling to meet the common aspirations of their people, particularly the youth, who are their future hopes to carry forward their decades’ old deep-rooted friendship.

The ambassador told the attendees of the event that Sangam Club is a new leaf added to the tree of Pakistan-China friendship and it would go a long way in further cementing people-to-people contacts between the two iron-brother nations.

The ambassador assured that their growing mutual exchanges, particularly at the young generation’s level, will keep growing in the years to come. The Embassy organized a ‘Sangam Club Gala’ in which it has invited people from all walks of life who have visited China on the invitation of the Chinese Embassy in recent year.

The purpose of the gala was to get these people together under one roof to share their diverse experiences in China, exchange notes, and provide suggestions for further promoting people-to-people exchanges between Pakistani and Chinese people.
