Chinese Ambassador to Pakistan Jiang Zaidong Monday said that it is a high time to take profound and substantial steps to further strengthen China-Pakistan all-weather strategic cooperative partnership.
"We are ready to expand cooperation with Pakistan in education, media, think tanks, youth exchanges, and the film and television industries, to foster mutual learning between civilizations and strengthen cultural and people-to-people ties," the ambassador said talking to media after addressing a ceremony.
"We will help Pakistan in developing human resources, increasing training opportunities, and implement the bilateral initiative of sending 1,000 Pakistanis to China for modern agricultural training."
He said that at the invitation of President Xi Jinping, President of Pakistan Asif Ali Zardari paid a successful state visit to China earlier this month. "We are pleased to see that since the establishment of the new Pakistani government last year, China and Pakistan have maintained close high-level exchanges."
He said, "We are ready to work with Pakistani side for the implementation, and turn the important consensus into tangible practices and fruitful outcomes of our bilateral cooperation."
The ambassador said, "We must aim high to deepen high-level strategic cooperation." He added the development of China-Pakistan relations over the past year further indicates that high-level strategic guidance is the fundamental guarantee for the steady and long-term development of our bilateral relations."
