ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Friday marked the 75th anniversary of its diplomatic relations with China with a symbolic “Chancery Showcase and Tree Plantation Ceremony” at its embassy in Beijing, highlighting renewal, cultural integration and the forward trajectory of bilateral ties.
The event, organised by the Embassy of Pakistan in collaboration with the Silk Road Cities Alliance, Jinshang Group and WTL Design, featured a presentation on the renovation of the chancery building, live musical performances, and a joint tree plantation ceremony.
Addressing the gathering, Pakistan’s Ambassador to China Khalil Hashmi said the occasion reflected both continuity and transformation in Pakistan–China relations, describing the renovated chancery and plantation drive as symbols of “renewal, stability and confidence in the future.”
He noted that the chancery’s renovation was not merely a structural upgrade but a representation of Pakistan’s cultural identity blended with contemporary design, creating a platform for cultural diplomacy and deeper engagement.
“The tree plantation, meanwhile, stands as a shared commitment to sustainability, growth and responsibility toward future generations,” he added.
The ambassador also acknowledged the contributions of partner organisations and embassy officials in executing the project and advancing Pakistan’s public diplomacy efforts in China.
The ceremony was attended by members of the diplomatic corps, media representatives and members of the intelligentsia, reflecting broad engagement in commemorating a milestone year in Pakistan–China relations.
