Pakistan-China youth exchanges important for shared future

ISLAMABAD: “The 70th diplomatic anniversary of Pakistan and China is not just a state-to-state anniversary, but a celebration between the people of both countries.

Pakistan is now in a period of youth bulge, with over 60% of its population under the age of 35. So, when we talk about Pakistan-China friendship, we have to think about the next 70 years, the young generations, because we enjoy a shared future,” said Mustafa Hyder Sayed, Executive Director of Pakistan-China Institute, according to China Economic Net.

He added, “although we have the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, a lot of Pakistani youth don’t have the institutional memory of our friendship with China.
