Congratulatory Message from Prime Minister to Chinese Premier on China’s National Day

🇵🇰🇨🇳🇵🇰🇨🇳🇵🇰🇨🇳🇵🇰🇨🇳🇵🇰🇨🇳🇵🇰🇨🇳🇵🇰🇨🇳

Excellency,

On behalf of the Government and people of Pakistan, and on my own behalf, I would like to extend my heart-felt felicitations on the 71st anniversary of the establishment of the People’s Republic of China.
The birth of New China on 1st October 1949 was a momentous occasion in the annals of history. Under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, the Chinese people are set to achieve the centennial goals of building Moderately Prosperous Society and Great Modern Socialist Country.

It is a matter of immense satisfaction that Pakistan’s bilateral relationship with China has maintained its characteristic momentum, unaffected by the vicissitudes of times. Our All-weather Strategic Cooperative Partnership continues to grow from strength-to-strength. Pakistan would continue to support China in pursuit of its core national interests.
CPEC is a transformational project and my government has whole-hearted commitment to making it a High-Quality Demonstration Project of BRI.
It is heartening to know that China has successfully won the ‘People’s War’ against COVID-19. Our mutual cooperation and joint efforts in the fight against COVID-19 remained exemplary and delivered promising results.
I take this opportunity to extend my best wishes for Your Excellency’s health and happiness and for the continued progress and prosperity of the people of China.
Please accept, Excellency, the assurances of my highest consideration.

PM Imran Khan
