BEIJING- China International Press Communication Center (CIPCC) celebrated Nations Day for a number of foreign journalists from different countries on Tuesday (May 7).

In that ceremony, some of the journalists briefed the attendees on their countries through some photos and video clips, some others had cooked their national foods and presented them during the event.

Most of the journalist were in their national clothes, and some of them performed their national dances.

African journalists were the most active ones in that ceremony. The unity between them and their happiness in this way was really admirable.

All those people in colorful and eye-catching clothes had made the place really astonishing.

To me, it was not only a celebration on the Nations Day, but also celebrating friendship and unity.

At the end of the ceremony, some Chinese foods were served, besides those national foods presented by some journalists.

Thanks to the CIPCC for holding such a nice ceremony.

CIPCC, under the China Public Diplomacy Association (CPDA), has initiated a program to build a platform for the media from countries around the world, especially developing countries, to observe China and study development in this country.

The program aimed at media exchange was halted in 2020 and 2021 due to the Covid-19 epidemic.

In each edition of the program, journalists from all around the world gather together to get familiar with the modern China and exchange their experiences in the field of journalism.

In 2024 edition of the program, scheduled to be held from late February until late June, over 100 journalists from more than 90 countries are participating.
