Chinese Ambassador in Dhaka Li Jiming on Wednesday conveying victory day greetings to all Bangladeshis said that Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has been ‘surprising’ the world through national achievements one after another.

He said those achievements were deemed by many as ‘impossible’.

“Bangladesh still stands a wonder by becoming a role model of development under the great leadership of Honorable Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who like her father has been surprising the world through one after another national achievements that many deemed impossible,” he said in a video message.

“Bangladesh stood a wonder in 1971 by achieving independence in the Liberation War, which was only made possible by the charismatic leadership of the Greatest Bengali of all time and the Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.

“Therefore, I join you today to pay my tribute to the sacred soul of Bangabandhu, the 4 national leaders, freedom fighters, and all martyrs of 1971,” he said.

He also lauded the prime minister’s leadership in Covid-19 management and said her leadership in combating and tackling the unprecedented pandemic has been “so phenomenal, and the timely steps for quick economic recovery to march ahead towards the country’s development goals have already started paying off”.

“While Bangladesh is heading towards the realization of Sonar Bangla, China, as a strategic partner as well as a trusted friend, has always joined in hand with Bangladesh and will certainly continue to do so in its every future endeavor,” he said.

He started his message saying that “I could not feel prouder and more honored to have the opportunity to join you in the celebration of the Victory Day of Bangladesh. On this glorious day of the Bengali nation, I’d like to extend my warmest greetings to you all, on behalf of the government and the people of China. Shuvo Bijoy Dibosh!”
