China pledges N$1b boost for women's ties

Trade between Namibia and China expanded more than 25 percent as Beijing pledged enhanced cooperation and training programs for women. Ambassador Zhao Weiping outlined development plans at a press briefing held at the Chinese embassy in Windhoek on Wednesday.

China will invite 50,000 women for exchanges and establish training centers while contributing 172 million dollars to the United Nations women's organizations. Beijing allocated 1 billion dollars from its global development fund for projects supporting women and girls across developing nations.

Weiping emphasized China's support for African demands regarding historical injustices from the slave trade. He described the next five years as crucial for China to achieve socialist modernization by 2027, while acknowledging the strong political ties between the two countries, which are sustained through official exchanges.
