XIE HUANCHI XINHUA BEIJING - The following is the full text of Xi Jinping's letter to China Soong Ching Ling Foundation on its 40th anniversary.
On the occasion of the 40th anniversary of China's Soong Ching Ling Foundation, I would like to extend warm congratulations to all members of the foundation and sincere greetings to people in and outside China who have contributed to the cause of the foundation!
Over the past 40 years, China Soong Ching Ling Foundation has inherited and carried the lofty ideals of Madame Soong Ching Ling and has played a significant role in many aspects including enhancing international friendship, expanding cross-Strait exchanges and exchanges with Hong Kong and Macao, and undertakings promoting youth development. I hope that the foundation will uphold Madame Soong Ching Ling's conviction that we will always stand with the Party, and pursue its cause under the principle of peace, reunification, and future. It is my hope that with a clear understanding of the theme of our times, the foundation will give full play to its unique strengths, deepening nongovernmental international cooperation, continuing to promote the peaceful reunification of the motherland, advancing charitable causes, and making greater contributions to the unity of all Chinese at home and abroad, and realizing the Chinese Dream of national rejuvenation.
