AS a Chinese diplomat who has been working and living in the Kingdom for nearly three years, I am honored to share the great joy with the Saudi people.

I’m especially happy to witness the prosperity and progress the Kingdom has achieved, and I wish the Saudi people further progress in various fields under the wise leadership of King Abdullah. China is willing to work together with Saudi Arabia to further deepen bilateral strategic friendly relations, to promote common economic and social development of both sides, and to jointly build a bright future of China-Saudi relationship.
