The Chinese Embassy in South Sudan organized the Chinese Cultural Festival on Monday, November 4, alongside the screening of the popular film “Nezha: Birth of the Demon Child.” The event was attended by the Chinese Ambassador to South Sudan, H.E. Ma Qiang, who delivered a welcoming speech, as well as more than 80 secondary school students, including those from the Chinese Friendship Secondary School.
In his remarks, Ambassador Ma emphasized that culture serves as a bridge connecting the peoples of China and South Sudan, despite the geographical distance between the two nations. He expressed hope that such activities would help South Sudanese youth learn more about Chinese culture, promote mutual understanding, and plant the seeds of friendship between the two peoples in the hearts of the younger generation.
The festival featured various cultural and artistic activities, including a demonstration of traditional Chinese calligraphy by embassy staff. Children had the opportunity to try writing with ink and brush, creating Chinese characters that represented values such as peace, security, and blessing.
The event was filled with joyful and engaging moments, as participants expressed admiration for Chinese art and culture, reflecting the growing cultural ties between China and South Sudan.
