For the Solomon Islands, the first ambassador to China, John Mofat Fu Gui, "Xi Jinping Talking about the Governance of the country" opened the "window of thought" for him to know China.

"I have read the first three volumes of" Xi Jinping Talking about the Governance of the country ", and I am reading the fourth volume." Fu Gui took the initiative to share his reading experience in an interview with this newspaper. He reads the reasons why China has achieved extraordinary achievements in the new era. With understanding China in depth, Fu Gui firmly said: "Establishing diplomatic relations with China is a great decision in my country's diplomatic history."

"China Respects us"

On September 21, 2019, China and Solomon Islands formally established diplomatic relations. The establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries is the general trend, and Fu Gui has a deep understanding of this.

Before the establishment of diplomatic relations in China, Fu Gui led a group to China and visited Beijing, Guangzhou and other places. "What we see in China impressed us." Fu Gui said, "First of all, China respects us. The Solomon Islands used to be a colony, and the status of the country and the country under the colonial system was unequal. In China, we got respect and were regarded by China as an important friend and noble guest. "Not only that, the prosperity of China also surprised Fu Gui and his party. In just a few decades, China has gone through the development of developed countries for hundreds of years. For the long -heard Chinese miracle, Fu Gui lamented: "Seeing it with your own eyes is shocking."

At the end of the journey to China, Fu Gui and his party had a bottom. "The background of our members of the China group is different. Everyone has different views on many issues, but they all think that it should be established with China." Fu Gui said, "The establishment of diplomatic relations with China is the correct historical decision in my country."

Talking about the mood of serving as the first ambassador to China in the Solomon Islands, Fu Guilian said "I feel excited." He said: "The Solomon Islands is a small island country on the Pacific Ocean, and the establishment of diplomatic relations with China has allowed us to go to a larger world. Our primary work is to open embassies in Beijing. Now we can represent the Solomon Islands on the large platform in China to promote exchanges. Share the huge influence of China. "

"China is a great friend"

In 2023, the Solomon Islands will hold the Pacific Games. This is the first time that the Solomon Islands has hosted a large -scale international sports event. The country's sports athletes will have the opportunity to compete with many athletes with many countries on their own land. The Pacific Games stadium project built by China has inserted wings to the people's circular dreams of the Solomon Islands. Since the start of the project in May 2021, Chinese builders and institutes have overcome various unfavorable factors such as epidemic conditions and continuously promote the project progress. In April of this year, the stadium project practice runway and football field officially completed and delivered; in June, the dormitory project of the State University University of the State will be used as a Pacific Games athlete village after completion; Gui believes: "China so strongly helps in the history of the Solomon Islands unprecedented."

China has provided great help for the economic and social development of the Solomon Islands: China has given 98%of the tax -oriented China -China zero tariff treatment, expanded the export of the superior products of the items; The superb medical skills and medical people have won praise from all walks of life; China helps build small people's livelihood projects such as water, hygiene, housing, and coconut processing plants to benefit the majority of people and villages; Stability ... Fu Gui said, "To build diplomatic relations with China, we are like taking high -speed trains and feels flying. The people of our country are talking about the great changes brought by my country every day. China is not only good friends, but also great friends. "

For some Western media discredited the acts of slander and slander, Fu Gui believes that some Western countries adhere to Western centralism and try to satisfy private interest by suppressing and demonized other countries. This thinking mode is very one -sided, and the world's interdependence in the world is not available. Fu Gui appreciates China's world view, cooperation, and development concept. "If you have read the history of China's foreign exchange, you will find that China is centered on development. For example, China proposed the 'Belt and Road' initiative to better promote development. Many Pacific island countries participated in it." The culture and tradition of marine life tell us that only when we are constantly striving forward, the boat will not be swallowed by the sea.

"I hope my child can study more and learn more in China"

Fu Gui's life in China is very busy. Discuss the direct flights from Honeyla, the capital of the Solomon Islands to Chinese cities, promote the export of golden tuna, wood and other products, expand tourism cooperation, tap the space for cooperation between solar projects, and find opportunities for cooperation with various Chinese companies ... in Fu On the list of Gui Plan, there are many goals and tasks.

In Fu Gui's work, "exploring China and reading China" is always in an important position. "I have been to Pingtan in Fujian, Changsha, Hunan, and Guangzhou, Guangdong. I like each city very much. I want to go to Hong Kong to see it in the future." Fu Gui hoped that his understanding of China can be more detailed and deeper. This is not only Fu Gui's self -requirement, but also his expectations for 4 children. He said: "One day when we returned to China, I didn't want people to say that you have been to China, but there is no shadow of China. I hope my children should not only eat Beijing roast duck in China, but also learn more." In the process of trying to understand China, Fu Gui pays special attention to China's development experience. He said that in the past three years with China, China's institutional superiority and efficient execution have left an extremely impressive impression on the people. "In the past few decades, we have mainly dealt with Western countries, but our development has not achieved much results. The establishment of diplomatic relations with China has brought great changes, including the style of action. We must learn Chinese wisdom and learn from Chinese experience. We Doing planning now is expected to learn from China, "he said.

Fu Gui specially talked about the inspiration of Chinese -style democracy, "A country must not copy democracy." He believes that democracy is diverse, and different countries have different forms of democracy. China has embarked on the path of democratic development in line with national conditions. "China’ s democracy avoids involving the maximum extent, prevents the phenomenon of mutual constraints and serious internal consumption, can form a combination of unity, and produces the results that are conducive to all parties. "Fu Gui said. (Overseas Net Mao Li He 毛)
