Ghana’s Vice President Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang has acknowledged the invaluable contribution of China to the country’s socio-economic advancement, urging the authorities to continue to work together for the good of the people.
She said it was imperative to deepen collaboration in new areas, citing energy, renewable power, digital technology, and trade facilitation, in order to address emerging development challenges.
Addressing the 65th Anniversary of China-Ghana Diplomatic Relations, in Accra on Friday night [Sept 27], the Vice President stressed the need to continuously maintain the foundation and principles underpinning the two countries’ long-standing ties.
The ceremony, coinciding with the commemoration of the 76th Anniversary of the Founding of the People’s Republic of China, treated the participants to a splendid cultural art display led by the Anhui Performance and Arts Group.
They were supported by the Confucius Institute at the University of Ghana, Legon.
Ghana and China established diplomatic relations on July 05, 1960, making the West African country one of the first countries on the continent to recognise the People’s Republic of China.
