According to the Chinese Ambassador, Guangxi is a land that not only stands out for its beautiful natural landscapes and rich folk culture, but is also a "red address" bearing many imprints of President Ho Chi Minh's revolutionary activities.
The Ambassador said that the Chinese people sincerely welcome the Vietnamese people to Guangxi to enjoy the beauty of the mountains and rivers, experience the depth of culture and reminisce about the historical journey following in Uncle Ho's footsteps. He hoped that Guangxi and the ministries, sectors and localities of Vietnam would continue to develop their potential and promote deeper and broader cooperation.
