China has described the ongoing development progress in Bangladesh as a surprise and a model for the world to follow, such as gaining independence through the war of liberation. At the same time, the country has highly praised the father of the nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. These issues have been highlighted in a video message posted on the Facebook page of the Chinese Embassy in Dhaka on Wednesday on the occasion of the Great Victory Day. The message was delivered by the Chinese ambassador in Dhaka Li Jiming.
Congratulating Bangladeshis on behalf of the Chinese people and government on the Victory Day, Li Jimming said: “There can be no greater pride and honor than being able to join in the celebration of Victory Day in Bangladesh. Bangladesh gained its independence through the liberation war in 1971. And this was possible only thanks to the brilliant leadership of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the greatest Bengali of all time and the father of the nation. That is why, together with you, I pay tribute to the departed souls of Bangabandhu, the four national leaders, the freedom fighters and all the martyrs of 1971 ‘.
The Chinese ambassador further said: “Bangladesh is now a role model and a marvel of development under the great leadership of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. He, like his father, is wowing the world with one national achievement after another. To many it seemed impossible. Above all, your (Sheikh Hasina’s) leadership in addressing and tackling the unprecedented Kavid-19 epidemic is truly remarkable. The impact of their initiatives on the rapid economic recovery has begun to be felt in the achievement of the country’s development goals.
“As Bangladesh moves towards Sonar Bangla implementation, China has always held Bangladesh’s hand as a strategic partner and loyal friend and will definitely continue to do so in all future initiatives,” Li said.
At the end of his message, the Chinese ambassador said: ‘Joy Bangla! Joy Bangabandhu! May the China-Bangladesh friendship be immortal.
The majority of fans welcomed the Chinese ambassador’s message on Facebook. But there has been a slightly different reaction. BNP President Khaleda Zia’s press secretary Kamal Khan wrote in response to the Chinese ambassador’s message on the Chinese embassy’s Facebook page: “Most of the people of Bangladesh want to see China as a friend of the oppressed and marginalized. They still want what they wanted in 1971. I hope that China respects the expectations and aspirations of the majority of the people of this country.
