　　From June 3 to 4, Wang Dunyan, Director of Zhanjiang Foreign Affairs Office, visited the Consulates General of Australia in Guangzhou and the Consulate General of the Federal Republic of Germany in Guangzhou for investment promotion, which deepened Zhanjiang's international exchanges and cooperation and continuously empowered its high-level opening-up and international development.

　　At the Consulate General of Australia in Guangzhou, Wang Dunyan introduced to Consul General Maree Ringland  Zhanjiang’s economic and social development, as well as its key industrial layout. She also reviewed the history of friendly exchanges between Zhanjiang and Cairns Region of North Queensland, as well as Geraldton of Western Australia, noting that the 22nd anniversary of the sister-city relationship between Zhanjiang and Cairns stands as a model of pragmatic local cooperation between China and Australia. With a solid foundation and broad prospects for cooperation, Zhanjiang expects to deepen collaboration in trade, education, culture and tourism, ecological environment, and youth exchanges, on the basis of existing sister-city interactions and cultural exchanges, achieving mutual benefit and win-win outcomes.

　　林漠怡对湛江与澳大利亚交流合作尤其是友城合作取得的成果表示高度赞赏。她表示，凯恩斯市与湛江市传统友谊深厚，双方在经贸、教育、人文领域合作根基扎实、潜力巨大。总领事馆愿与湛江市保持密切联系，并适时率队访问湛江，寻求澳大利亚与湛江市在矿产贸易、农渔业、文旅、人文等领域更多合作机遇。

　　Consul General Maree Ringland highly praised the achievements made in exchanges and cooperation between Zhanjiang and Australia, particularly in sister-city cooperation. She said that Cairns and Zhanjiang share a profound traditional friendship, with a solid foundation and immense potential for cooperation in trade, education, and people-to-people exchanges.
