On July 21, Uganda’s leading newspaper New Vision published a special interview with Richard Todwong, Secretary General of Uganda’s ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM). Todwong warmly congratulated the Communist Party of China (CPC) on its 105th anniversary and spoke highly of the CPC’s governance experience and China’s development achievements.

Todwong said that the achievements of Chinese modernization are remarkable and provide important inspiration for developing countries. He noted that the NRM values its friendly exchanges with the CPC and is ready to continue learning from China’s experience in organizational and institutional development, anti-corruption, long-term planning, and public resource management.

Todwong stressed that Uganda will continue to be a reliable and trustworthy partner of China. He welcomed more Chinese investors to invest and do business in Uganda, and expressed the hope that the friendship between the two parties will be further translated into practical cooperation outcomes between the two countries.
