In a heartfelt display of international collaboration, Chinese Premier Li Qiang announced on Sunday that the partnership between China and Australia is set to achieve remarkable win-win results. Premier Li made these remarks during his visit to the renowned Adelaide Zoo, where he highlighted the ongoing cooperation in panda protection and research.
At the heart of this collaboration are Wang Wang and Fu Ni, the Southern Hemisphere's only pair of giant pandas. Since 2009, these beloved animals have been on loan from China, becoming top attractions at the Adelaide Zoo. Premier Li praised the exceptional care they receive, noting that despite being far from their homeland, Wang Wang and Fu Ni have gracefully settled into their new environment and are thriving.
Premier Li emphasized that the pandas serve as ambassadors of China-Australia relations, embodying the profound friendship and mutual respect between the two nations. He also revealed that Wang Wang and Fu Ni are scheduled to return to China later this year, as previously agreed upon by both parties.
Looking ahead, China is committed to continuing its cooperation with Australia in areas of panda protection and research. Premier Li expressed hope that Australia will remain a welcoming home for giant pandas, reinforcing the collaborative spirit that has defined their relationship.
Furthermore, Premier Li highlighted China's significant achievements in giant panda conservation, showcasing the country's positive contributions to global biodiversity and the preservation of endangered species.
