An event titled ‘China Festival on the TV Screen’ on the China-related programs in the mass media of Bangladesh was held in Dhaka on Tuesday (September 5) afternoon.

Expressing his fascination with China’s socio-economic development, the state minister said the once unknown and mysterious China has now become one of top development partners of Bangladesh.

He said, “I’ve visited many countries of the world.

A few days ago I went to China on an official tour.

But I was truly impressed and overwhelmed by the beauty of China.

They have decorated the country like a dream.

Apart from the natural beauty, the law and order situation and the manners, etiquette and punctuality of the people impressed me.”

The state minister said more programs like the ones organized by CMG would create more interest in cultural exchange between the two countries.

Charge the Affairs Yan Hualong in his speech encouraged the youth of Bangladesh to go to China to learn Chinese language, study or work.

He said culture and education can bring the hearts of the peoples of two countries together and their friendship can foster closer relations between the two countries.
