The visit will provide an opportunity for the leaders of our two countries to open a new chapter of bilateral relations under new circumstances, said Kang.
PM Imran will hold meetings with the Chinese President Xi Jinping and Prime Minister Li Kiqiang to exchange views on cooperation and issues of common interest.
The premier will also attend China International Import Expo in Shanghai from November 5 on the invitation of the Chinese president. Pakistan will participate in the expo as a guest of honour while PM Imran is expected to deliver a keynote address.
