Excellency,

On behalf of the people and government of Pakistan, and on my own behalf, it is my profound pleasure to congratulate your Excellency on re-election as General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.

Under the paramount banner of the Communist Party of China, the brave and resilient people of China have travelled a long journey of historic transformation. At a time when the world is mired in chaos and disorder, with unity of purpose and sense of commitment, the CPC has opened new horizons in the realms of national and global governance. Today, the CPC stands high as the torchbearer of stability, order and endurance.

Under the visionary leadership of your Excellency, China has regained its place as global economic and military power. During the last five years, China has made great strides in all spheres of human endeavor. The achievements of the Chinese people are a source of inspiration and guidance for the developing countries.

Your vision of “the Belt and Road initiative” presents a practical solution to the uncertain global economic and political landscape, of which China-Pakistan Economic Corridor is a flagship project. We, the government and people of Pakistan, stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Chinese people to implement the vision of “building a community of shared destiny”, and to utilize all our resources and efforts to implement the consensus reached between the two brotherly countries.

I am confident that under Your Excellency’s able leadership, the Chinese people will realize the dream of national rejuvenation, and a prosperous and well-off society.

Please accept, Excellency, the assurances of my highest consideration.

Yours Sincerely,

Mamnoon Hussain
