BEIJING, Nov. 13 -- Chinese President Xi Jinping's visits to Papua New Guinea, Brunei, and the Philippines from Nov. 15 to 21 will facilitate Asia-Pacific cooperation and intensify bilateral ties, senior officials said on Tuesday.
Xi will pay a state visit to Papua New Guinea from Nov. 15 to 16, Vice Foreign Minister Zheng Zeguang told a press briefing.
During his visit, Xi will meet with leaders from eight Pacific island countries, which have established diplomatic ties with China, in Papua New Guinea's capital city of Port Moresby, according to Zheng. The countries include Papua New Guinea, Fiji, Samoa, Vanuatu, the Federated States of Micronesia, the Cook Islands, Tonga and Niue.
It will be the first time for a Chinese head of state to visit Papua New Guinea, Zheng added.

According to Zheng, Xi's upcoming meetings with leaders of the Pacific island countries will be held bilaterally and collectively.
