BEIJING - China and Senegal on Friday agreed to increase media cooperation to promote understanding and bilateral ties in a meeting between seniors officials of the two countries.

Li Changchun, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, expressed the hope to promote media cooperation between the two countries during a meeting with Moustapha Guirassy, Senegalese minister of communication and government spokesman, in the Great Hall of the People.

Li hailed the development of China-Senegal relations since the two states resumed official diplomatic ties in 2005.

Guirassy said he was impressed by China's economic achievements and his country will learn from China's experience in economic sectors. He expected his current China visit would help push for exchange and cooperation between media circles of the two countries.
