Hi there! Did you know that pandas and alpacas are great friends? 🐼❤️🦙 Well, maybe not in the animal world, but they are symbols of China and Latin America, two places that have been working together for a whole decade!
What’s the China-CELAC Forum?
Ten years ago, in 2013, China and the countries in Latin America and the Caribbean decided to create a special group called the China-CELAC Forum. Think of it like a big club where they meet to talk about how to help each other and be good friends.
Building Big Things Together 🏗️
They have worked on awesome projects! For example, in Ecuador, they built a big power plant that brings electricity to many homes. In Argentina, they are helping to make trains that can go really fast!
Trading Cool Stuff 🚢
Trade between China and Latin America has grown a lot. They buy and sell all sorts of things from each other. China buys yummy fruits and meats from Latin America, and Latin America gets cool gadgets and clothes from China. Maybe your favorite fruit or toy is part of this trade!
A Friendship Across the Ocean 🌊
This special friendship is all about helping each other grow and succeed. By sharing ideas, working together on big projects, and trading goods, China and Latin America are showing how countries can be good pals!
