"The
Cuban people feel a deep respect for the Chinese people,
their struggles, for their rich history full of heroism and
sacrifice, for their resistance against invaders, for their
love of freedom and revolution", said Vice Minister of the
Informatics and Communications Alberto Rodriguez Arufe, for
the cancellation of a postage stamp to mark the 60th
anniversary of the founding of the PRC.
That was occasion to celebrate the historic relations between both nations, which met yesterday, completing 49 years, and to convey the fraternal greetings for the sixtieth birthday. Meanwhile, Zhao Ronxiang, the Asian giant's ambassador, expressed fratitude for the greetings, and recalled the roots of the ties that bind us and said that relations between our countries are making progress and are characterized by an important and efficient cooperation. The commemorative stamp was designed by José Antonio Medina from Chinese platanized work of the prominent artist Flora Fong, and part of his personal exhibition of China to the Caribbean. A postal issue was attended Caridad Diego, chairwoman of the Parliamentary Group of Friendship with China, Hilda Vasallo, coordinator for Asia and Pacific Department of International Relations of the Party Central Committee and members of the Friendship Association and the Chinese colony in Cuba, among others. http://www.juventudrebelde.cu/internacionales/2009-09-29/un-sello-de-amistad-entre-cuba-y-china/ |
