Both sides have been cooperating well in the past 10 years and made remarkable progress in giant panda protection and breeding, scientific research, technical exchanges, public education, and people-to-people exchange.
The extended agreement will continue to focus on bilateral cooperation on forestry and biodiversity, the economy, society, culture and other fields.
