Egypt's Chinese Cultural Center organizes symposium on Chinese tourism

"The salon is a new window for Egyptian officials and the public to learn about China clearly and is a tool for opening doors for dialogue to push forward cooperation between the two countries in various fields," said Chinese Cultural Counselor to Egypt Shi Yuewen.

It will also highlight strength and weakness in the Chinese-Egyptian cultural ties to improve mutual relations, Shi added.

He explained that all the lecturers in the salon are Egyptian experts, thinkers, diplomats and businessmen who have seen the reality of China.

Dozens of Egyptians, lovers of Chinese culture, attended the seminar, led by former foreign minister Mohammed al-Orabi and former minister of culture Shaker Abdul Hamid.
