KOTA KINABALU: China’s Guangdong province is keen to establish future
cooperation in tourism, education and human resource development as
well as sister relations with Sabah.
Chairman of Guangdong
Provincial Committee of Chinese People’s Political Consultative
Conference, Guangzhou, Mr Huang Longyun, disclosed this during a
courtesy call on Chief Minister Datuk Seri Panglima Musa Haji Aman at
his official residence in Sri Gaya yesterday.
“Sabah and Guangdong
are compatible in terms of lifestyle and culture. We hope to establish
relations so that we can carry out long-term cooperation with Sabah,”
Huang said.
Musa said there has been much interest in Sabah from China as of late.
“Both
the governments of China and Malaysia have cordial and excellent
relations, contributed mainly by past and present leaders of both
countries.
“This good relations has paved the way for trade and economic cooperation between the two countries,” he said.
The
Chief Minister added Guangdong was welcome to invest in the tourism,
agriculture and manufacturing sectors, including downstream processing
of oil palm via the Palm Oil Industrial Cluster (POIC) set up in the
east coast of Sabah.
“People from China will find Sabah familiar
because we have a sizeable community of Malaysian Chinese here. Despite
of our ethnic diversity, we are able to live in peace and harmony,” he
pointed out.
