A China-Mongolia cooperation project, the central wastewater treatment plant in Mongolia's capital Ulaanbaatar, was put into operation on Monday.
The facility, built by Chinese companies using Chinese standards and technology, is the largest and most advanced wastewater treatment plant in Mongolia.
As a project for people's livelihood and a symbol of friendship, it carries the expectations of the leaders and the peoples of both countries, becoming another important landmark of China-Mongolia mutual assistance and a concrete reflection of the good-neighborly and friendly relations between the two nations.

China expresses grave concern over recurring malicious incidents that threaten the security of Chinese embassy and consulates in Japan, Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Lin Jian said at a regular press briefing on Wednesday.
Lin pointed out that Kodai Murata, a second lieutenant of Japan's Ground Self-Defense Force, illegally broke into the Chinese Embassy in Japan armed with a knife. Nearly three months have passed, yet Japan's investigation and handling of the case are still proceeding slowly, he added. "The incident again reveals multiple deep-seated issues in Japan: the worsening right-wing impact and the suppression of objective and rational voices, the toxicity of the Japanese government's erroneous policies on vital issues concerning China-Japan relations such as history and Taiwan, the serious lack of education on true history, the pervasive erroneous historical views, the ongoing push for a more offensive and expansionist defense policy and failure in supervising the SDF and maintaining discipline inside the forces," the spokesman said. "We notice that, for some time, many people with insight in Japan have asked the Japanese government to make an apology to China. Some have urged the government to reflect on itself and take corrective actions concerning the supervision of SDF, the education on history, and Japan's policy towards China so as to fundamentally address the issue and remove its breeding ground in the Japanese society. We once again urge the Japanese side to do serious soul-searching, correct its wrongdoings, conduct a thorough probe and take full responsibility for the incident," Lin said.
