The Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Mr Thomas Tayebwa, has commended the government of China for contributing to the development of Uganda.

Mr Tayebwa said the two countries have continued to enjoy and consolidate the good relations in diverse fields, including political, technical, investment, security, trade, tourism, social, cultural and scientific disciplines.

“Uganda and China enjoy strong, historical and excellent bilateral relations that have been upgraded to a comprehensive cooperative partnership. We should seek to optimise benefits from this mutual cooperation and partnership, including effective execution of projects that enhance Uganda’s economic transformation, development and prosperity,” Mr Tayebwa said.

He added: “China has been one of the leading countries offering technical assistance to Uganda. Uganda and China have in the past signed a number of Agreements in Economic and Technical Cooperation, in the areas of trade, health, industry, production.”
