\nChina will strengthen its monitoring and regulation of artificial intelligence security risks by amending the Cybersecurity Law, an official said on Thursday, in an effort to ensure the technology develops in a healthy, orderly manner that is beneficial, safe and fair.
\nThe law, which took effect in June 2017, serves as a foundational legal framework in this field.
\n"Since its implementation, China has seen continuous progress in building a strong cyber power, with advancements in strategic technologies such as AI and further integration of the digital and real economies," noted Wang Xiang, spokesman for the Legislative Affairs Commission with the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, the country's top legislature.
\nWang praised the rapid development of AI, noting that the technology is spearheading a new wave of technological revolution and industrial transformation, profoundly changing the way people live and work.
\n"Integrating AI deeply into socioeconomic development will inject new momentum into advancing Chinese-style modernization," he said.
\nHowever, he added that the development of new technologies like AI has introduced new challenges to cybersecurity, with cybercrimes occurring frequently.
\nTo address the needs of AI governance, he revealed that an AI-related provision has been included in the draft amendment to the Cybersecurity Law, which is scheduled for review by the NPC Standing Committee in its upcoming session, in a move to help strike a balance between technological development and security.
\nCiting the draft amendment law, he said that foundational research in AI theory and the development of key technologies such as algorithms will receive strong support, while AI infrastructure and ethical standards will also be improved. Additionally, the monitoring, assessment and regulation of safety risks associated with the technology will be intensified.
\nMoreover, the draft amendment will also further align with the Civil Code and the Personal Information Protection Law, he added.
\nAccording to a previous decision, the NPC Standing Committee is scheduled to hold a new session in Beijing from Friday to Tuesday. Aside from reviewing the draft amendment to the Cybersecurity Law, Chinese lawmakers will also discuss draft revisions to the Organic Law of the Villagers' Committees and the Organic Law of the Urban Residents' Committees.
\nWang said that the amendments of the organic laws aim to enhance the responsibilities of village and urban community committees, and that the draft amendments have proposed the establishment of committees for providing strong care for the elderly, women and left-behind children — whose parents work far from home.
\n"The revisions will improve the ability of village and neighborhood committees to help mediate disputes involving property management," he added.
\nAccording to the proposed agenda for the session, lawmakers will also review a draft amendment to the Environmental Protection Tax Law and a draft law on procuratorial public-interest litigation.

\nUnder the crisp autumn sky of Lhasa, Xizang autonomous region, hundreds of residents have once again gathered at the foot of the Potala Palace — brushes, buckets and spray tools in hand — to give the centuries-old landmark its traditional red, white and yellow makeover.
\nAmong them was Pema Wangyal, a Lhasa resident taking part for the second time.
\n"The Potala Palace is sacred to us," he said. "It's a great honor to help refresh its walls. Many people line up early to join. It's so crowded on the first day because everyone wants to make their own contribution."
\nThe annual repainting, which began this year on Wednesday to correspond with the start of the ninth month in the Tibetan calendar, is both a communal celebration and an act of preservation. The tradition dates back generations and usually lasts about a week, marking one of Lhasa's most distinctive seasonal rituals.
\nEach morning, volunteers queue up at paint-mixing stations to prepare and transport the pigment. The special paints — made from lime, milk, honey, sugar, saffron and natural minerals — are splashed or sprayed onto the Potala's massive outer walls. Some volunteers use basins to throw the paint, while others, nicknamed "spider-men", work high up on ropes to reach difficult spots.
\nBehind the palace in a shaded area, Ngakwang, a longtime participant, directed teams through a walkie-talkie.
\n"I come every year," he said. "It used to take about half a month to finish the job. Now, with better mixing and spraying equipment and more organized teamwork, it only takes around a week," Ngakwang was quoted as saying by local media.
\nThe project is led by staff from the Potala Palace Management Office, joined by residents from all walks of life who volunteer their time. The repainting not only refreshes the palace's appearance but also protects its ancient walls from weathering and erosion.
\n"The facelift is more than cosmetic," said Pema Wangyal. "It helps preserve this thousand-year-old structure and the spirit it carries."
\nFirst built in the 7th century under Tubo ruler Songtsen Gampo, and largely reconstructed in the 17th century, the Potala Palace remains Xizang's largest and best-preserved palace complex. The palace was listed among the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units in 1961, and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1994.

\nEditor's note: China's 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-30) will soon be unveiled. Guo Liyan, deputy director of the Chinese Academy of Macroeconomic Research's Economic Research Institute, spoke to China National Radio about the country's economic growth prospects, development advantages, innovation trends and future trajectory. Below are excerpts from the interview. The views don't necessarily represent those of China Daily.
\nChina has distinctive institutional strengths and many advantages, including an enormous market, a complete industrial system and a wealth of talent. These four factors have provided strong support for China's steady and sustained economic progress during the 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25) period and guaranteed the resilience of the country's economy.
\nInstitutional strength, with the powerful capacity for organization, mobilization and long-term strategic planning, serves as a cornerstone for ensuring economic stability and improving the quality and efficiency of development. It guides resources and factors of production to key areas, providing solid institutional support for leveraging the super large Chinese market, strengthening industrial dynamism and unleashing the vitality of human resources.
\nWhen it comes to the market size, China's population of over 1.4 billion and the expanding middle-income group constitute an enormous source of demand. The key now is to accelerate the transformation of this massive market advantage into industrial competitiveness, creating application scenarios for new technologies and products.
\nIt has been proved that market advantage can empower emerging industries and provide strong support for them to thrive in new arenas.
\nChina's advantage in the industrial system is reflected in the spread of new technologies in emerging industries as well as the transformation and upgrading of traditional sectors. The textile industry is a good example of this transformation. There has been a continuous improvement in the quality of high-performance fibers produced by the industry. They are now being used in sophisticated high-speed trains and ships.
\nTalent is also a crucial production factor. Scientists and engineers, as well as other highly skilled workers, are vital to building and maintaining a modern industrial system.
\nThe unilateral trade protectionism of certain countries has changed the demand environment for exports significantly. However, many export-oriented Chinese enterprises have turned this challenge into an opportunity. They have used new growth drivers to transform. With strong policy support, they are now moving toward innovation and higher value. Many firms are now placing greater emphasis on developing their own intellectual property and brands, diversifying into other overseas markets and moving from simple suppliers of goods to providers of full lifecycle services. This shows that Chinese companies and the country's economy have the strength and resilience to turn adversity into opportunity.
\nThe new wave of technological revolution is reshaping global production and supply systems, bringing both opportunities and uncertainties. Against this backdrop, it is vital to promote growth from both the supply and demand sides. On the supply side, efforts should focus on improving the capacity for independent breakthroughs and on scaling up new technologies and products beyond the experimental stage. At the same time, enterprises should enhance their awareness of quality and branding.
\nOn the demand side, China must further unlock the potential of its massive domestic market through reform and policy measures. It is important to expand the supply of new consumer goods and services and create more consumption scenarios. This will allow new technologies and products to be more widely used and meet people's demand for services.
\nIn short, efforts should be made on both the supply and demand sides, guided by the needs and aspirations of the people. By continuously optimizing and coordinating policies, China can better safeguard people's livelihoods, identify new growth drivers, and foster new engines of development.

Workers load durians for export at a transport center in Chanthaburi, Thailand, in June.
\n![](\"https://mobile.chinadaily.com.cn/cn/resfile/2025-10-24/010/20251024_010_04_20041.png\")
\nBefore moving to Thailand two years ago, I had never tried durian — the spiky fruit that has become so popular among adventurous Chinese eaters. Its stinky odor alone was enough to knock me down before I could muster the courage for a bite.
\nI had always thought I wasn't "the durian type". Yet, I could not help but appreciate the miracle of this fresh fruit.
\nMy first encounter came during an interview at a durian orchard, where I could hardly say no to the worker who had picked a fresh durian from a tree and put a golden, chubby piece in my hand with a smile full of hope.
\n"When in Rome ... I can do this," I told myself, forcing a calm demeanor. The taste was beyond my expectations. The offensive smell faded as the fresh pulp melted in my mouth, its texture as soft as whipped cream. The complex and rich flavor opened the door to durian paradise, as many of its fans might describe it.
\nAt that moment, I finally understood why many people love that fruit so much.
\nSince then, I've visited durian farms, markets and processing factories across Thailand. The rich diversity of Thai durian has been an eye-opening experience.
\nApart from Monthong, or Golden Pillow — the dominant variety in the Chinese market — I came to recognize many other names: Kradoom, Puangmanee, Lueangthong, Daokrajai, Sithong and Sai Khao.
\nExperts say Thailand boasts more than 200 durian species, distinguished by shape, size of thorns, texture of pulps, and a great variety of tastes — from sweet, bitter and honey-like to those with notes of caramel, nuts and sometimes a subtle hint of savory or almond.
\nOver the past decade, durian has become a link between the taste buds of Chinese and Thai people. The fruit's export boom shows no signs of slowing: Last year alone, Thailand shipped 833,000 metric tons of durian to China, worth $3.7 billion, accounting for 97.4 percent of China's durian market.
\nOnline sales have soared, with vendors leveraging platforms such as Douyin and Taobao to launch "Thai Durian Day" campaigns, while partnering with key influencers to sell directly to consumers via livestreams.
\nThe lucrative durian trade has drawn numerous Chinese investors to Thailand, where they run orchards or provide logistics services. What began as a shared love for the fruit is evolving into a mutually beneficial partnership through joint ventures that strengthen bilateral ties.
\nFor years, Chinese enthusiasm for Thai durian has been well-known among local people. During my visits to orchards across eastern and southern Thailand, many farmers told me, "Great minds think alike."
\nThai farmers continue to win over Chinese fans with deliciousness, or haochi in Mandarin. However, many were barely aware that most Chinese consumers lacked the knowledge to recognize high-quality durians — until the BY2 contamination issue surfaced early this year, severely affecting Thai durian exports to China.
\nIn January, Chinese customs tightened inspections after detecting Basic Yellow 2, a commercial dye unsafe for food. This triggered rejected shipments, returned cargos, investigations into packing processes, temporary suspensions of some exporters and packing houses, and a push by Thailand to set up approved laboratories for BY2 testing.
\nThe safety crisis led to misunderstandings among Chinese consumers concerned about Thai durian safety, while Thai farmers suffered great losses because of the chemical added during packing.
\nDuring my interviews with durian farms and local agricultural testing centers earlier this year, industry insiders revealed that the BY2 use was actually a new trend driven by wrong knowledge of durians among consumers, as many believed that durians with bright yellow shells were ripe ones.
\n"People who suffered most are innocent farmers who have followed the traditional way of plantation for generations and have no idea about the dyeing procedure after harvest," Duanrung Benjamas, manager of the Eastern Agricultural and Food Product Research and Innovation Development Center at Rambhai Barni Rajabhat University in Chanthaburi Province, told me.
\nThe issue served as a good lesson for Thailand, Duanrung said. "As the country aims to be a global fruit exporter, we need to upgrade the fresh fruit industry with full traceability, from orchard to market, to meet high international standards," she said, while also calling for consumer education on fruits.
\nGrowing up in China, I've witnessed how public awareness of food safety has changed dramatically over the years, as scandals — from dyed goji berries to infant formula tainted with chemical melamine — received more media exposure.
\nThese crises resulted in stricter standards and supervision by regulatory authorities, while also improving public perception, from whether they can eat enough to whether they can eat well.
\nAs Duanrung mentioned, the food safety scandal offered a good lesson — not only for Thai producers but also for Chinese consumers. Our habit of judging fruit quality by appearance needs to change, and our knowledge of food, especially new kinds of food, should always be updated.
\nAgriculture plays an important role in Thailand's economy, and Thais are very proud of their agricultural products. Farmers in Thailand respect both nature and traditional farming wisdom — a value system that resonates strongly with the Chinese.
\nThe BY2 scandal helped the Thai fruit industry upgrade, with more investment from the government in testing and scientific farming. It also raised the safety standards of fruits imported into China and increased Chinese consumers' knowledge of this "king of fruits" — a positive change that will foster closer partnerships in the future.

\nThe "Beijing Declaration on Wind Energy 2.0", unveiled recently at China Wind Power 2025, sets a goal for China's cumulative wind power installed capacity to reach 1.3 TW by 2030, at least 2 TW by 2035 and a staggering 5 TW by 2060.
\nChina's ambitious targets instill optimism that the world can meet its broader climate goals, said Ben Backwell, CEO of the GWEC.
\nThe new goals mark a substantial increase from the initial Beijing declaration in 2020, which had projected at least 800 gigawatts by 2030 and 3 TW by 2060, he added.
\nThe updated timeline is driven by China's rapid wind power development, which has consistently surpassed previous expectations, he said.
\nBy 2024, China's cumulative wind power capacity reached 520 GW, a 147.62 percent increase from 2019, with annual new installations consistently exceeding 60 GW since 2020, according to statistics from the National Energy Administration.
\nBackwell said he was confident about China's ability to exceed its new targets, noting a historical trend of outperformance, lauding China's "incredible supply chain", which he attributed to consistent policy and market volumes that have fostered a robust "industrial ecosystem".
\n"One thing that I find exciting about China is that every time we set a target, we actually go beyond the target. China always outperforms its targets, and that gives us confidence that we can reach the bigger global target," he said.
\n"China's supply chain is extremely important, both in terms of components for the global wind energy and solar photovoltaic sectors."
\n"We're expecting to see diversification of the supply chain as production moves locally into those regions," Backwell said, envisioning a future where Chinese, European and other companies collectively contribute to globalizing industrial presence, creating jobs and enhancing energy security worldwide.
\nGWEC said that China's success demonstrates that renewables can win without subsidies against fossil fuels, with clean energy now directly competing with coal, leading to the peaking and anticipated reduction of emissions in the country.
\n"China is this kind of vast market where it was mainly coal, and we're now going to see coal replaced by renewables. That's going to show the rest of the world that this is possible," Backwell said.
\nQin Haiyan, secretary-general of the Chinese Wind Energy Association, said China possesses vast wind energy resources with significant potential for development.
\nAccording to the association, Chinese wind turbine manufacturers have been accelerating their international expansion in recent years, having already exported equipment to 57 countries across six continents.
\nSeven of these manufacturers have either established overseas production facilities or are in the process of doing so, it said.
\nIn recent years, wind power equipment manufacturers have also been stepping up efforts to introduce innovative AI-integrated solutions. These systems intelligently adjust power generation — producing more when electricity prices are high and less when low — which not only extends their design life span by five years but also boosts profitability.
\nEnvision Energy, for example, has come up with the first global AI wind-storage integrated machine recently, which combines wind power generation and energy storage, functioning like a "smart electricity trader" and capable of increasing wind farm revenues by over 20 percent.
\nReflecting on 2024, Backwell described it as a "massive year for China" where the country completely removed wind power subsidies and transitioned to a market-based system.
\n"The transition is a real success, proving the industry's resilience and competitive strength."
\nBackwell stressed the need to "globalize that story", accelerating renewable energy development in regions such as the Middle East, Africa and Latin America, alongside continued acceleration in Europe and other advanced economies.
\nGWEC Deputy CEO Rebecca Williams said that China's "learnings "from deploying wind at scale and driving technological advancements were crucial to "transfer them to other countries that also want and need wind power".
\n"China has deployed wind at scale, driven a lot of technological advancements," she said.
\n"It's been one of the countries that has really pushed forward wind power from its early history to the present day. What is really important now is that China can use these learnings and transfer them to other countries that also want and need wind power."

Models walk the runway in creations by Pakistani fashion designers at Wangjing Square near the Badaling Great Wall last Sunday.
\nUnder the autumn sunlight at the Great Wall, China and Pakistan engaged in a fashion dialogue that reflected the enduring vitality of their cultures.
\nThe maiden China-Pakistan Fashion Show, organized by the embassy of Pakistan in Beijing in collaboration with the China International Cultural Communication Center, was held last Sunday at the Badaling section of the Great Wall.
\nPakistan's ambassador to China, Khalil Hashmi, highlighted the significance of the venue, saying the Great Wall "provides a fitting platform to celebrate the living spirit of the Silk Road, now expressed as a modern bridge of fabric, art and friendship".He noted that the event coincides with the 60th anniversary of the first visit by a Pakistani dignitary, former Pakistani President Ayub Khan, to the Great Wall, a historic landmark that has long stood as a witness to the enduring friendship between the two countries.
\nThe show put Pakistani artistry to the forefront, with emerging designers presenting innovative fashion creations inspired by Pakistani truck art, textile printing and eco-conscious concepts, while blending elements of both Pakistani and Chinese culture. The event also featured works by a China-based Pakistani jewelry designer and a Chinese fashion brand.
\n"I wanted to show that young people in Pakistan are also creative," says Adnan Ansari, the producer responsible for executing the show. He explains that the event did not feature traditional Pakistani brands. "Beyond traditional embroidery, Pakistani fashion is diverse — all different kinds keeping the art alive."
\nFor Ansari, blending Chinese and Pakistani cultures in fashion was not a difficult task. Even before this fashion show, Chinese colors, cuts and styles had already been incorporated into Pakistani fashion. What fascinated him most was the richness and complexity of Chinese culture.
\nPakistani designer Rizwanullah, known for his focus on sustainable fashion using repurposed fabrics, explored Chinese traditional clothing, including qipao (long, tight-fitting dresses) and hanfu (traditional clothing of the Han ethnic group).During his stay in China, he was impressed by the quality of local fabrics. "China has the best fabrics, "Rizwanullah says. He hopes to create more fusion designs that incorporate Chinese culture, adding that "fashion is a universal language".
\n"At traditional weddings, brides in both Pakistan and China wear red," says China-based jewelry designer Aqeel Chaudhary. He believes that the cultures of the two countries share connections that go beyond borders, because "everyone feels happy when they have beautiful things".
\nAs Long Yuxiang, chairman of the China International Cultural Communication Center, explains, "people-to-people exchanges" are the purpose of the show. He emphasizes that China and Pakistan share a profound historical heritage and a common pursuit of better lives through fashion aesthetics.
\nAlthough China and Pakistan have established an all-weather partnership, many Pakistani artists traditionally look to the West for inspiration, says Ambassador Hashmi. "I hope they will also explore countries in the East. China is the best place," he adds, holding that the strong friendship between the two nations provides a solid foundation, which can be further strengthened through people-to-people exchanges.
\n"Fashion is a medium, a door that opens possibilities," he says, expressing hope for expanded artistic, musical and exhibition exchanges between the two countries in the future.

\nAlthough China and Pakistan have established an all-weather partnership, many Pakistani artists traditionally look to the West for inspiration, says Ambassador Hashmi. "I hope they will also explore countries in the East. China is the best place," he adds, holding that the strong friendship between the two nations provides a solid foundation, which can be further strengthened through people-to-people exchanges.
\n"Fashion is a medium, a door that opens possibilities," he says, expressing hope for expanded artistic, musical and exhibition exchanges between the two countries in the future.

Giraffes wander in the Ngorongoro-Lengai Global Geopark.
\nOne day at 3 am in September 2023, over 50 people, out of breath, gathered at the Ol Doinyo Lengai volcano in the northern part of the Ngorongoro-Lengai Global Geopark in Arusha, Tanzania, to witness a marvel — molten lava, as clear as melted gold, flowing through cracks in the crater. Steam mixed with the orange-red lava and the black volcanic ash, creating a thick "river of fire".
\nThese Chinese and Tanzanian nationals, feeling the scorching heat and smelling the strong sulfur in the air, had been climbing for more than seven hours. The climb, with an altitude gain of nearly 3,000 meters and a 45-degree incline, had pushed them to their physical limits.
\nTheir work, the geoheritage survey of the volcano crater, as part of the reconstruction project undertaken by the Chinese government to assist in the development of Tanzania's first and only global geopark, had to be done before dawn. Once sunlight hits, the lava in the crater gradually turns gray, resembling an ordinary muddy river.
\nAnd for this route alone, the geological workers had climbed four times to obtain data on the geological heritage sites and plan sightseeing and scientific expedition routes for the area.
\nFrom nearly being excluded from the UNESCO Global Geoparks Network to having its construction progress fully recognized, the revival of the Ngorongoro-Lengai Global Geopark — the first geopark built with China's foreign aid — has fully demonstrated China's wisdom of empowerment through green development and technology, as well as its philosophy of harmony between humans and nature.
\nLocated in northeastern Tanzania, it is the only global geopark in Sub-Saharan Africa with internationally significant geological features. It is renowned for the Ngorongoro Crater, the active Ol Doinyo Lengai volcano and the paleontological sites of the Olduvai Gorge, opening the doors to tourism, conservation, education and research.
\nIn 2018, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization endorsed it as a global geopark, covering around 12,000 square kilometers across the Arusha districts of Ngorongoro, Karatu and Monduli. However, due to problems such as poor fundamental infrastructure, inadequate visitor information and insufficient scientific interpretation content, the geopark received a yellow warning from UNESCO in 2022 and was given a two-year period for corrections and reevaluation.
\nChina stepped in to assist at that critical moment. During Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu Hassan's visit to China in November that same year, she and Chinese President Xi Jinping attended the signing ceremony for a China-aided project aimed at addressing the challenges faced by the geopark. Supported by the Agency for International Economic Cooperation of the Ministry of Commerce, the Chinese Embassy in Tanzania and the China Geological Survey, the project has included both technical assistance from the Tianjin Center of the China Geological Survey and physical infrastructure handled by the China Railway 25th Bureau Group.
\n"As the inaugural China aid geopark project, all the people are 'crossing the river by feeling the stones'," said Ren Junping, director of the Southern Africa Geological Survey Cooperation Center of Tianjin Center, who led the project.
\n"We are responsible for the entire workflow, from planning and implementation to construction," Ren said, adding that there were challenges in balancing the local needs with respect for nature in the planning process, as well as the necessity to work together to address logistical problems and deal with the frequent downpours.
\nRen considered the investigation of geological heritage resources as the foundation of the project, with the purpose of determining the distribution and availability of resources within the area. This could provide essential data for spatial planning, scientific expedition route design, and the establishment of a database encompassing geological heritage as well as natural and cultural resources.
\nOver a period of more than a year, the team completed a thorough investigation of the geopark, which included examining geological heritage sites, shallow groundwater sources and volcanic structure rock strata characteristics, as well as the interpretation of remote sensing geological data.
\nSun Kai, a project member from the Tianjin Center, also emphasized the complexity of the project.
\n"This project demands more comprehensive capabilities than conducting domestic geological heritage work," Sun said. "It involves not only geological surveys but also visitor information for public outreach and digitalization."
\nIn addition to essential tools like geological hammers, team members need to carry photographic equipment such as cameras and drones when conducting geological surveys to help produce scientific materials and exhibit designs, he said.
\nLi Lei, a project member from the Tianjin Center, said that China's information technology has been exported to develop a tourist-oriented service platform centered around the geopark's resource data, supported by interpretation and information systems.
\nCurrently, nearly 300 signs, including interpretive, directional and safety warning ones, have been erected in the geopark — all in English, Swahili and Chinese. A field interpretation system is also in place, offering interpretive scripts for key locations in seven languages of English, Swahili, Chinese, French, German, Spanish and Arabic.
\nWhile designing the landmark building of the new geological museum — a requisite for a global geopark — the team chose not to employ complex artificial intelligence technologies considering the frequent power outages in the local area. Instead, they installed solar panels on the exterior walls and used simple electrical systems to power interactive exhibits, such as animal racing and volcanic eruption simulations.
\nThe museum's design draws inspiration from the style of Tanzanian thatched huts, conveying to visitors the story of volcanic activities in the East African Highlands and human evolution, while promoting the ideals of respecting, conforming to and protecting nature.
\n"It was a novel experience for everyone," said Wu Xingyuan, a project member from the Tianjin Center.
\nThe geopark provides a lush habitat with abundant water and grass for 300,000 wild animals, including wildebeest, zebras, lions, rhinoceroses and elephants, creating a self-sustaining tropical savanna ecosystem.
\n"Once, while sitting in the vehicle, we saw a lion lying right by the car window," Wu recalled. "Thus, we have to hire armed security personnel to manage the dangers posed by wildlife."
\nTo protect these animals, primitive dirt paths are maintained to prevent damage to their hooves. Additionally, work must cease, and everyone must leave by 5 pm, returning the area to the wildlife, Wu said.
\n"Another distinctive feature of the geopark is that it is home to nearly 400,000 residents, with the vast majority being Maasai," Wu added.
\nTo honor these indigenous people who have lived here for generations, the team has organized tours where visitors can immerse themselves in the Maasai way of life, sample their traditional food and dance alongside them.
\nAdditionally, the team has implemented a one-month talent training program for local residents, providing them with comprehensive knowledge about the geopark. This includes basic geological knowledge, the formation mechanisms of significant geological heritage sites, as well as training in the use of geological disaster monitor equipment.
\nThe hard work bore fruit when UNESCO successfully revalidated the geopark in December last year, and the project is on track for completion by November.
\nZhang Jianping, vice-president of the Global Geoparks Network and a professor at China University of Geosciences (Beijing), emphasized the "extreme importance" of China's foreign-aid project for the geopark. He noted that it has enhanced local infrastructure and economic opportunities while boosting cultural exchanges and ecological protection.
\n"As one of the only two global geoparks in Africa — the other is in Morocco — the Ngorongoro-Lengai Global Geopark is rich in geological, biological and cultural resources. Its conservation is quite good, but the geopark management is relatively weak," Zhang said.
\n"The authorities and staff members need to fully understand the philosophy of UNESCO Global Geoparks. Therefore, capacity building is very important for them, as it can lead them to pay more attention to considering local residents' needs and aspirations. It is greatly appreciated that this project included the training courses," he added.
\nZhang Zhonghui, a senior engineer and a member of the Geological Society of China, described the foreign-aid project as "a paragon of international cooperation".
\n"The project has not only helped Tanzania create a batch of distinctive cultural and tourism products and activities but also achieved long-term empowerment through personnel training and improvements in local livelihoods," Zhang Zhonghui said.
