It is at the Crowne hotel Plaza in Beijing (Pekin, capital of the People's Republic of China) that Guy G. Lamothe, the Permanent Representative of the commercial office of Haiti in China has chosen to share with the Association of Haitian Students in China , the traditional "joumou" soup (giraumon soup) of January 1st, in which the majority of Haitian students from Beijing participated as well as their friends from here and elsewhere, where music, songs, wishes and patriotism for this 216th anniversary of the independence of our Motherland, was on the evening's program.

Ambassador Lamothe, who is in his 6th month in China, reminded the students of the discipline they must demonstrate. For Lamothe it is an obligation for them to be true Haitian ambassadors in the Orient and their duty to integrate into Chinese society to be more successful. Note that the commercial office that Lamothe heads, is getting closer and closer to Haitian students in China to help them integrate better.

He also congratulated the Association of Haitian Students in China which has given itself the task of grouping the students, welcoming them upon their arrival in order to facilitate their integration, particularly in their university.

In his message Guy Lamothe wished his young Haitian students to see the emergence of a group of Haitian entrepreneurs in China, which goes beyond simple import-export, in order to have real added value and contribute to reduction of the deficit trade balance between China and Haiti.

New plans and new challenges were at the heart of the exchanges between the Haitian, Chinese and African participants of this evening of January 1, 2020.
