Myanmar's Minister of Foreign Affairs Tin Maung Swe will pay an official visit to China from June 4 to 6, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning said at a press briefing in Beijing on Wednesday.

"At the invitation of Wang Yi, a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and minister of foreign affairs, Myanmar's Minister of Foreign Affairs Tin Maung Swe will pay an official visit to China from June 4 to 6," said Mao.

"China and Myanmar are traditional friends and neighbors, and a community of shared future. After its new government took office, Foreign Minister Wang Yi visited Myanmar at the end of April, when he had in-depth exchanges of views with the Myanmar side on developing China-Myanmar friendly relations and advancing practical cooperation in various fields, and reached positive consensus. Foreign Minister Ting Maung Swe's upcoming visit is his first visit to China after assuming the office, which will realize mutual visits between the two foreign ministers in a short period of time. This fully embodies the political will and positive attitude of both sides to deepen the building of the China-Myanmar community with a shared future. China looks forward to discussing with the Myanmar side the deepening of cooperation within the framework of the four major global initiatives and promoting more practical outcomes in building the China-Myanmar community with a shared future," she said.

Sixty ambassadors and diplomats from 37 countries have traveled on Monday to explore China's frontier of reform and opening‑up in Guangzhou, south China's Guangdong Province.

The venue showcased the latest achievements in frontier industries such as the low-altitude economy and embodied intelligence, offering the envoys an immersive experience of future technology.

"That reflects the enormous progress of China in the area of technology. What we have seen today in robotics in the automobile manufacturing is really amazing," said Marcelo Gabriel Suarez Salvia, Ambassador of Argentina to China.

The envoys learned that Guangdong boasts a well-developed modern industrial system, with production volumes of communication equipment, drones, and industrial robots ranking first in China for extended periods.
