Expressing his gratitude to China for supporting Gambia in the 1970s, especially since the two countries resumed diplomatic relations, Barrow said his country cherishes the friendship with China and will never forget its assistance.
China's support in the areas of agriculture and health has greatly promoted the national development of Gambia and improved people's livelihood, said Barrow, adding that he himself had received treatment by Chinese medical teams.
Gambia stands ready to enhance cooperation in areas of the economy and trade, agriculture, electricity, infrastructure, education, tourism and people-to-people exchanges, and collaboration in international affairs, he said.
Expressing his admiration for China's achievements, Barrow said Gambia would like to learn from China's reform and development experience and enhance its own capacity-building.
He also said that Gambia is willing to take an active part in cooperation within the framework of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation.
Following the talks, the two presidents witnessed the signing of bilateral cooperation documents on the setting up a Confucius Institute at the University of The Gambia as well as on cooperation in economy, trade, investment, technology, infrastructure construction and human resources development.
Barrow arrived in Beijing on Wednesday for a week-long state visit. Besides Beijing, he will also visit the cities of Xiamen and Guangzhou.
