FUZHOU,
China, July 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- A
news report from chinadaily.com.cn:
The summary meeting of the "Bond with Kuliang: 2024 China-U.S.
Youth Festival" was held last week in Fuzhou, southeast China's Fujian province. During the meeting, the
"Kuliang Proposal" was officially released.
In recent days, over 500 youths from various sectors in
China and the United States gathered in Fuzhou to
exchange ideas, visit exhibitions, performances and
planted friendship trees. They celebrated the bond with
Kuliang, deepened friendly ties, and continued to write the story
of Kuliang together in the new era.
At the summary meeting held
on Friday, American youth representative Harriet Anne Hales Parkinson from Brigham Young University, and Chinese youth
representative Ruan Yangyang from the Curtis
Institute of Music, read the "Kuliang Proposal" in English
and Chinese respectively.
"We all believe that the story of Kuliang stands as a testimony
to China-U.S. friendship", the "Kuliang Proposal" stated. It
emphasized that the people of China and the United
States can overcome their differences and establish deep
friendships. The youths of both countries are a
testament of the development of China-U.S. relations for the
past 45 years and they should be the protectors and promoters
of healthy and stable China-U.S. relations in the next 45
years.
The "Kuliang Proposal" calls for the continuation of the
"Bond with Kuliang: China-U.S. Youth Festival" and the organization
of regular events of various specialties and scales. These events
should facilitate exchanges between American and Chinese youths,
fostering a platform for young people from both countries to engage
in dialogue, enhance mutual understanding, build friendships, and
explore cooperation in an open, inclusive, relaxed and
friendly atmosphere.
Additionally, the proposal advocates for promoting the story of
Kuliang and continuing the bond with Kuliang so that more people
from both countries will learn about the story and together
strengthen China-U.S. friendship based on mutual respect, peaceful
coexistence, and win-win cooperation.
The "Kuliang Proposal" encourages Chinese and American youths to
engage in exchanges and cooperation between the two countries in
various fields and become envoys who will promote mutual
understanding and friendship between the peoples of China and the United
States so that the friendship will grow and thrive like the
millennia-old cedar trees in Kuliang.
