This year’s anniversary marks China’s victory over Covid-19 and its effects, with normalcy largely restored. China will continue to develop despite Covid-19 and global unrest. Han: “We’ve created a civilization where everyone lives and eats well, erased poverty, and modernized completely.” China, with 1.4 billion people, has one of the lowest Covid infection and fatality rates in the world. Meanwhile, its economic growth exceeded the prediction of 2.3% in 2020 and jumped to 8.1% in 2021, he said.
Politicians and business magnates from Thailand attended. House Speaker Chuan Leekpai, Charoen Pokphand Group Chairman Dhanin Chearavanont, and other lawmakers attended. Chuan Leekpai wished China a happy 73rd birthday. Chuan, who apologized for his poor Chinese, said Covid-19 showed the “strong and beautiful” bond between the two nations. According to him, China’s vaccination donation to Thailand was a “true friend in need” that was appreciated by all Thais. Chuan told reporters after the event that the international community looks to Xi Jinping to help resolve global crises like the Russia-Ukraine war. Han Zhiqiang, China’s ambassador to Thailand, emphasized bilateral cooperation between China and Thailand and China’s contribution to maintaining peace and order amid geopolitical tensions. He also pledged to help boost cooperation in the Asia Pacific region at the upcoming APEC Summit in Bangkok in November.
