'Happy Chinese New Year' gala held in Tanzania

Mwansasu, who spoke on behalf of the Tanzanian government, wished Chinese people a happy new year. She said Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit in 2013 has accelerated cultural exchanges and investment between the two countries. Since then, there has been an upswing in infrastructure development and foreign direct investment.

At the event, Wang handed over donations from local Chinese businesses and communities to boost projects by two local institutions, a primary school for the deaf in Buguruni and The Voice of Disabled Women in Tanzania.
