Mohammad Masood Khan, ambassador of Pakistan to China, talks to chinadaily.com.cn, giving his comment of China's great achievements during the past decades and expectation of the country's new leadership and future after the 18th CPC National Congress.
New leaders will aggregate the interests and the aspirations of the people of China, primarily. And we are supportive. Whatever is good for the people of China is good for Pakistan.
In the past 10 years, the Chinese people have demonstrated their achievements. They've gone to space. They have conquered, crossed new frontiers. The skyline all over China has changed. You have organized these very impressive mega events with splendor. Some of your progress is cited as unprecedented in the history of the world. So I think that this rhythm of going into the future is strong, and the new leadership will inherit this mentality of fast development, this mentality of working towards cooperative foreign policy – see this world as a cooperative world. So we are supportive.
We, the people of Pakistan, are supportive. And I wish, personally, the people and the state of China well in this transition. I will be watching this transition from afar, but I think that my best wishes can be conveyed across the continents to China, to the people of China.
