SHIJIAZHUANG: A top foreign affairs official from the PLA yesterday praised China's neighbors for the timely and effective manner in which they provided aid to areas affected by last month's earthquake.
"There are many shining examples of how they sent disaster relief materials. I value it highly," Qian Lihua, director of the foreign affairs office of the Ministry of National Defense, said.
He was speaking on the sidelines of the 10+3 Workshop on the Participation in International Disaster Relief by Armed Forces, which opened yesterday at the Shijiazhuang Army Command College, one of the PLA's top two colleges, here in the provincial capital of Hebei.
