Hundreds of people were part of the 75th anniversary of China Day at the Grand Pacific Hotel last night to witness the good relationship that Fiji has with China in building a better Fiji.

While speaking at the event, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance, Professor Biman Prasad says Fiji has had a good relationship with China since 1970 and with good cooperation resulting in China being at the forefront of providing help to our country.

Chinese Ambassador to Fiji, Zhou Jian says China and Fiji have a good relationship so far and are focusing on creating innovative strategies for the development of our country.

Jian says it is also important to enhance political trust not only in Fiji but in the Pacific as well.

He also says cultural exchange in the Pacific will promote good relationships.

He adds we need to work together to make the Pacific a core of peace.
