The CPC is ready to join hands with the ANC, the SACP and other parties to explore development paths that are in line with our respective national conditions, and to usher in a new era of China-South Africa cooperation and friendship,” China’s Ambassador to the country, Xiadong said.
“Accordingly, we have no doubt that at the end of our conference, we will emerge with renewed hope for the future of our movement and our country. Like the CPC, we too hope to emerge from our conference with an ANC that will continue to stay true to its fundamental purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly.
