Abbas Jawad Kdaimy, Arabian expert at Xinhua News Agency and winner of a 2014 Friendship Award, was among them. The education achievements interested him the most. “Without good education, the economy and technology of a country will definitely be left behind,” said him, “China’s education quality is among the best around the world, and I know many foreign experts in China dedicated to improving the education quality in China.”

“We need to tell the true Chinese stories to the world,” said Kdaimy, “For example, the haze problem exists in China, but we have also seen government’s effort to deal with it. Now we can see more blue sky days than bad ones.”

Former CCTV host Edwin, winner of a 2009 Friendship Award, also visited the exhibition. “China is changing so rapidly! Nowadays, more people can afford private cars, and the bike-sharing business is bringing convenience to everyone in an environmentally-friendly way,” said Edwin.

The exhibition consists of 10 themed sections and one special experience exhibition. Through pictures, videos, models, and interactions, visitors can learn about China’s achievements in the economy, democracy, culture, society, ecological civilization, national defence and military construction, and diplomacy -- all obtained after the 18th CPC national congress.
