Exclusive video interview with Ambassador Wang Lixin: Bridge to prosperity: China-Maldives strong bilateral ties

China, one of the world's oldest civilizations, boasts a rich and diverse history that spans thousands of years. Its story is one of ancient dynasties, philosophical enlightenment, and monumental achievements in arts and sciences. The pivotal moment in China's history arrived in the early 20th century when it transitioned from an age-old imperial system to a modern republic.

China's National Day, celebrated on October 1, marks the anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949 which not only signifies the end of over a hundred years of foreign aggression and marked the birth of a new era for the Chinese people, characterized by sovereign independence, social progress, and economic development.
