JOHANNESBURG, Dec. 24, (Xinhua) -- Legal ties between China and Africa have taken a major step forward with the conclusion of the First Forum on China-Africa Legal Co-operation in Cairo, Egypt on Monday. Under the theme "Strengthen China-Africa Legal Exchange and Promote All Round Development of China-Africa Relationship", this forum was the first time lawyers from the China and Africa had met in such circumstances. Greg Nott, who led the South African delegation, said on his return to Johannesburg on Thursday that he was "terribly excited by this forum and look forward to the implementation of a number of proposals tabled." These included an exchange and cooperation between Chinese and African legal circles and a legal "think tank" to promote a universal and sustainable development of the China-Africa relationship. Nott, who is the legal representative of the China-Africa Development Fund as well other China investor clients, said there were a number of other "ambitious and exciting proposals". These include "the establishment of training and consulting centres as well as training projects for young African lawyers. This goes all hand-in-hand with private sector lawyers driving intellectual and legal support for business activity on both continents." The forum was convened as the first step towards pragmatic cooperation between Chinese and African legal circles. It was attended by delegates from Botswana, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia, as well as a strong delegation from the China Law Society. The agenda included the important role of law in China-Africa cooperation, an introduction to the legal systems of China and African countries and their impact on trade and investment relations. A number of prominent Egyptian and Chinese lawyers presided over the panels. The lawyers have much work to do because while China has one legal system, the 53 nations which make up Africa each have their own systems. Most are based on either the British legal system, with elements of Roman/Dutch law, or the French legal system. There is also a strong legacy of Portuguese influence in former colonies. China's civil law system is based on traditional customs and practices, with Soviet and German influence. Held on Dec. 20 and 21, the forum was hosted at the Cairo Regional Centre for International Commercial Arbitration. The South African delegation included Rajen Ranchhoojee and Sheng Wu of the Johannesburg legal firm Dewey & LeBoeuf, where Nott is the managing partner. The legal forum followed shortly after the meeting of foreign ministers at the fourth Forum on Africa China Cooperation, which was held in for Sharm-El-Sheikh, Egypt from Nov. 8 to 9. At that meeting South African International Relations and Cooperation Minister Maite Nkoana Mashabane said China had played an important role in Africa's renewal. "For instance it has had significant role in peacekeeping in Africa." She said a major strength of Chinese aid was its orientation to recipient priorities such as infrastructure (telecommunications, energy, roads) and productive sector investments (agriculture). "Furthermore, Chinese assistance is considered to be relatively predictable assistance because it is disbursed on schedule within the intended financial year." At that point she said development cooperation between South Africa and China is was regulated by two Agreements, "namely an agreement on Human Resource Development that was signed in 2004 and a February 2007 Agreement on Technical and Economic Cooperation".
BEIJING, Nov. 20 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao on Friday congratulated EU's top leaders elected on Thursday, vowing to further boost China-EU all-round strategic partnership. Wen made the remarks in his meeting with a group of EU diplomats including former French Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin and Hungary's ex-Prime Minister Peter Medgyessy, who were here to attend a China-EU forum. The Belgian prime minister was unanimously elected on Thursday as the first full-time EU president and Britain's EU Trade Commissioner Catherine Ashton as EU foreign policy chief. "As a strategic partner of the EU, China congratulates the leaders elected and feels glad for that," Wen said. Calling EU as an important pole of the world, Wen said the EU integration would help the 27-nation bloc to play greater role in international affairs. He called for courage and insight of political figures of both sides, as well as support from various circles of the society to deepen China-EU relations. "The Chinese government is ready to cement trust and deepen cooperation with EU to promote bilateral all-round strategic partnership," he added. Some of the EU representatives told Wen both the EU and China shoulder great responsibilities in the world globalization. The two sides should not only properly settle issues in bilateral ties but also jointly respond to major global challenges such as climate change.

During his visit to Papua New Guinea, Li held talks with Governor General Paulias Matane, Prime Minister Michael Thomas Somare and Deputy Prime Minister Puka Temu. They pledged to consolidate the traditional friendship between the two countries, promote bilateral cooperation and support each other to advance their relationship. The leaders of Papua New Guinea reiterated their staunch adherence to the one-China policy. PROMOTING MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL TRADE & ECONOMIC COOPERATION Li and leaders of the three nations stressed that their economies were highly complementary, and deepening mutually beneficial trade and economic cooperation was in line with the fundamental interests of both sides. They agreed to adopt a strategic approach in their trade and economic cooperation, pledging to actively expand cooperation in technology, new energy, bio-medicine, and environmental protection while promoting cooperation in traditional areas such as energy, mineral resources and agriculture. Australia expressed willingness to become China's strategic partner in the areas of resources and energy. Both sides agreed to promote the negotiation process of the Free Trade Agreement based upon the principle of positive cooperation, pragmatism, balance and mutual benefits.

Australia also approved China's Baosteel Group's second-version application for investing 285 million Australian dollars to acquire a 15-percent stake in Aquila Resources, an Australian coal and iron ore producer. During his visit, Li and New Zealand leaders agreed to continue to implement the free trade pact between the two countries, and to expand the scale of cooperation in trade and economy. The two countries signed a series of cooperation agreements on food security, inspection and quarantine and Chinese workers seeking temporary jobs in the island nation. The leaders of Papua New Guinea said they were willing to advance cooperation with China in some traditional areas such as agriculture, forestry and fishery as well as in energy and resources. During Li's visit, the two countries signed agreements on economic and technological cooperation as well as on preferential loans. ENHANCING CULTURAL EXCHANGES Li also reached consensus with leaders from the three nations on further enhancing friendly cultural exchanges and cooperation and promoting people-to-people links in such fields as education, culture and tourism. The Chinese delegation endorsed plans with the Australian side for the Year of Australian culture in China in 2010-2011 and the Year of Chinese Culture in Australia in 2011-2012. Li also said that China would provide a pair of giant pandas to Australia within the year for research purposes. China signed MOUs with Australia and New Zealand on education and cooperative training programs during Li's visits, and also established a Confucius Institute with Canterbury University in New Zealand. The Chinese leader also pledged assistance to the three nations in their participation in Shanghai World Expo in 2010. PROMOTING MULTILATERAL COOPERATION All three nations spoke highly of China's positive efforts and constructive role in dealing with major issues such as the global financial crisis and climate change. Li agreed with the leaders from Australia, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea to further promote negotiation, coordination and cooperation in coping with major issues and in multilateral organizations such as the United Nations and the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation. DEEPENING UNDERSTANDING OF CHINA In his speech to Australian industrial and business leaders, Li made a comprehensive introduction of China's stand and achievement in countering the global financial crisis. He made clear China's sticking to a path of peaceful development and its adherence to a strategy of opening up that is mutually beneficial. Li also advanced a three-point proposal on consolidating the China-Australia relationship, which included observing China-Australia relations from a strategic perspective, promoting pragmatic bilateral cooperation in trade and the economy based upon the two countries' complementary strengths, and advancing cultural exchanges in a harmonious and friendly fashion. The Chinese leader also conducted extensive exchanges with government leaders, managers from enterprises, institutions of higher education, research bodies and media during his visit. According to He, Li's visit to Papua New Guinea was a show of China's positive attitude toward strengthening relations with Pacific island nations. China and the Pacific island nations share many common interests and are firm supporters of each other in various major global and regional issues and in international organizations such as the U.N., He said. China's relations with the Pacific island nations have developed rapidly in recent years, and constitute an important part of China's relationship with other developing countries, He said, adding that two-way trade volume reached 1.76 billion U.S. dollars in 2008. He said China has been providing a series of economic and technical assistance to countries having established diplomatic relations with China in the region. China has helped them in infrastructure construction, sent professionals to the region to help develop their economy and carried out numerous training programs, He said. All those efforts are strong proof that the development of the relationship between China and the Pacific island nations is beneficial to all and has a promising future, He said.
