The Chinese Ambassador to Ghana, Sun Baohong, on Tuesday called on young Ghanaian graduates to help strengthen the already existing friendship between Ghana and China.

She said Ghanaian graduates who studied in China were a group of elites in the country who have wide knowledge and deep understanding of China and must shoulder the responsibility to let Ghanaians understand the real China.

The ambassador was speaking to young Ghanaians at a ceremony to officially inaugurate the China-Ghana Graduates Association (CGGA) in Accra.

The CGGA is a society of dynamic and forward-thinking Ghanaians who have had the opportunity to study in China or are planning to pursue an education in China or interested in learning and gaining insights into the Chinese society, culture and socio-economic development.

"CGGA is a fledgling now, but looking into the future, it will become a mainstay of advancing the traditional friendship and cooperation in various fields between China and Ghana," Sun said, while stressing on the need for both governments to support the group.

The Minister of Youth and Sports, Edwin Nii Lantey Vanderpuye, said it was incumbent on the current generation to build on the relationship between Ghana and China.

"And I am happy that today we have a wonderful young men and women deciding to even bridge the gap further, make it closer, tighter and stronger than before," he said.

The president of the association, Charles Mawuenyega, said the group's vision "is to create, connect and promote a network of Ghanaian and Chinese graduates who are committed to promoting a mutually beneficial relationship between both countries and Africa in general".
