Every spring marks the high season in China's political calendar, as the National People's Congress and Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference convene thousands of delegates from all over the country for the annual two sessions. Ever since arriving in Beijing as ambassador of the United Arab Emirates to China, it has always been an honor for me to attend the opening and closing ceremonies of this landmark political event, not least because this is where China's ambitious policy blueprints for the year ahead are unveiled. Standing in front of the Great Hall of the People just days ago, I felt no less excitement than I did when I first came to this country as ambassador. Throughout my time here, I continue to witness China make history, time and again, through its unstoppable progress and deliberate, far-sighted strategy.
