IN the early summer, with beautiful sunny days, the 47th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Malaysia is approaching. This is my first time celebrating the anniversary since my assumption of office as the Chinese Ambassador to Malaysia.
At this moment, my mind is filled with a myriad feelings, reflecting about my responsibilities and wishes. In the past few months, I have engaged extensively with Malaysian friends from government, Parliament, political parties, media, think tanks and local communities. I was deeply impressed by their passion and aspiration to promote China-Malaysia relations. The Malay proverb “Air dicincang tiada putus” vividly reflects the millennial friendship between China and Malaysia.
