On April 29, Ambassador Zhou Jian attended the handover ceremony for 800 school chairs donated by Guangzhou City to Fiji’s Marist Brothers High School. The event was attended by over 200 participants, including Principal Asish Dayal, faculty members, students, and media representatives.

In his speech, Ambassador Zhou emphasized that the donation would help Fijian students pursue their dreams, adding a heartwarming chapter to China-Fiji educational cooperation and sowing more seeds of hope for bilateral friendship. He encouraged the students not only to witness the China-Fiji friendship, but also to carry forward its torch by becoming promoters of practical cooperation and people-to-people exchanges, contributing to the next "Golden 50 Years" of China-Fiji relations.

He looked forward to strengthening cooperation with China in infrastructure, cultural exchanges, and Chinese language education to benefit more Fijian students.
