Dragon Boat Races Carry Cultural Heritage, Cultural Integration Bonds People’s Hearts
UNI International Participates in Dragon Boat Festival Event in Pakistan
On June 14, 2026, a series of activities for the Dragon Boat Festival, one of the supporting events celebrating the 75th anniversary of the establishment of China-Pakistan diplomatic relations, was held along the Kabul River in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province, Pakistan. Co-hosted by the local Culture and Tourism Department and Peshawar China Window, the event invited UNI International to attend and conduct exchanges.
The event was attended by numerous provincial ministers, political representatives. The team of UNI International elaborated on the cultural connotations of the Dragon Boat Festival to Pakistani dignitaries. Dragon boat racing symbolizes solidarity and teamwork, Chinese Zongzi (Rice Dumpling) stands for family reunion and a bumper harvest, and Qingyang sachets, a national intangible cultural heritage, carry people’s prayers for peace and blessings. The vivid explanation was well received and highly recognized by the guests.
Traditional Chinese intangible cultural heritage handicrafts including Qingyang sachets and the Zhenyuan paper-cut Two Dragons Playing with a Pearl were on display. The distinctive oriental folk art attracted many guests to stop and appreciate the works. Martial arts performances by kids from Islamabad Star Village ignited the whole venue. Handmade Zongzi were served for guests to taste. This immersive cultural experience further narrowed the distance between the peoples of China and Pakistan.
Max Ma Founder and CEO of UNI International said that cultural connectivity serves as a solid foundation for China-Pakistan vocational education cooperation. This cultural exhibition has built a bridge of mutual trust between enterprises and government departments, paving the way for the launch of projects including China-Pakistan Industrial Colleges, overseas vocational training workshops and cross-border talent training.
This Dragon Boat Festival exchange activity is a vivid practice of the "small yet beautiful" people-to-people friendship projects developed by UNI International. Moving forward, the team will continue to organize regular cultural exchanges, deepen cooperation in cross-border vocational education, and make sustained efforts to consolidate the all-weather China-Pakistan friendship and jointly build a closer China-Pakistan community with a shared future.
