This year marks a golden milestone as China and The Gambia celebrate 50 years of diplomatic relations. The enduring friendship and fruitful cooperation between the two nations have been highlighted through strong partnerships in tourism, trade, and cultural exchange.
Amid the 2024 Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) in Beijing, the spotlight shines on the youth forging these lasting bonds. In a special episode, CGTN's Merna engages with Fatima Sillah, a Gambian reporter with Kerr Fatou Media, and Kanni Touray, a student at the University of International Business and Economics. Their stories reflect the deep mutual respect and support that have nurtured China-Gambia relations over the decades.
As both nations look to the future, the collaboration between young global citizens continues to drive innovation and strengthen the ties that have been built over half a century.
