On 21st Mar, Faces of Haiti Photo Exhibition was held by the Chinese People’s Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries(CPAFFC) at the Peace Palace of CPAFFC’s compound. Mr. Xie Yuan, Vice President of CPAFFC, Mr. Latortue, Representative of Commercial Development Office of Haiti in China, Ambassadors from Suriname, Cuba, Colombia and Jamaica, representatives of relevant ministries, institutions and business community participated at the event.  

On the welcoming speech, Mr. Xie Yuan said that both China and Haiti belong to the developing countries. Although there are no diplomatic ties between the two countries yet, the far geographical distance could not stop the friendly exchanges between the two peoples. Today’s photo exhibition depicts the scenery and local life in Haiti. Through the photos of Mr. Samuel Dameus, let us witness the daily life and tropical caribbean scenery, feel the advancement of Haitian society, people’s love for nature and their pursuit of happiness. 

Mr. Latortue delivered a warm speech, expressed his appreciation for CPAFFC’s support to the Photo Exhibition. He wishes that it can let more Chinese people understand Haiti and further the two peoples’ friendship.
