On the occasion of the National Day of the People’s Republic of China, it gives me great pleasure to convey to you, the Government and people of China our heartfelt felicitations. Our two people have enjoyed exemplary friendship that has been imbued with ever-new vitality and vigour by each succeeding generation.  We earnestly believe that Pakistan-China friendship and comprehensive partnership is in the interest of our two countries and an important factor for peace and progress of our region. The people of Pakistan rejoice over the great national accomplishments of our Chinese friends.  China’s enormous economic progress has opened new vistas for further strengthening of mutually beneficial ties not only between our two countries but for the region as a whole.
This year, we have commemorated with great fervor the 55th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Pakistan and China.  I had the opportunity to visit China twice and we eagerly look forward to Your Excellency’s visit to Pakistan. I avail myself of this opportunity to convey our best wishes for Your Excellency’s good health and happiness and continued progress and prosperity of the friendly people of China. Please accept, Excellency, the assurances of my highest consideration and esteem.
 

To His Excellency
Hu Jintao
President
People’s Republic of China
