President of the People's Republic of China
我很高興應西里爾·拉馬福薩總統邀請，對南非共和國進行第三次國事訪問并出席金磚國家領導人第十次會晤。印度洋和大西洋環抱中的“彩虹之國”擁有獨特壯美的自然風光、奮發有為的勤勞人民、絢麗多姿的多元文化。即將再次踏上這片美麗的土地，我心中充滿期待。
It gives me great pleasure to pay my third state visit to the Republic of South Africa and attend the 10th BRICS Summit at the invitation of President Cyril Ramaphosa. I am full of expectations as I am about to set foot again on the beautiful land of South Africa, the rainbow nation standing at the convergence of the Indian and Atlantic Oceans, and home to unique and magnificent landscapes, industrious and enterprising people, and colorful and pluralistic cultures.
今年適逢中南建交20周年，但兩國人民友好交往源遠流長。早在共同的反帝反殖反種族主義斗爭中，兩國人民就結下了深厚友誼。新南非成立后特別是中南建交20年來，兩國在探索符合本國國情的發展道路進程中始終相互支持、相互借鑒。兩國關系經受住了時間和國際風云變幻的考驗，實現了由伙伴關系到戰略伙伴關系再到全面戰略伙伴關系的重大跨越，呈現出政治互信、經貿合作、人文交流、戰略協作齊頭并進的強勁發展勢頭。
This year marks the 20th anniversary of diplomatic ties between our two countries, but the friendly interactions between our peoples go far beyond that. Our peoples forged a deep friendship during our common struggle against imperialism, colonialism and racism. After the birth of a new South Africa, especially in the past 20 years of diplomatic relations, our two countries have supported and learned from each other in our respective exploration of a development path suited to national conditions. This relationship has stood the test of time and a changing international environment. From a partnership to a strategic partnership, and then to a comprehensive strategic partnership, this relationship has made big strides and demonstrated a strong growth momentum in political trust, economic and trade cooperation, people-to-people exchanges and strategic coordination.
過去6年里，中南作為中非合作論壇共同主席國，密切協作，推動中非全面戰略合作伙伴關系不斷向前發展。中南關系已經成為中非關系、南南合作以及新興市場國家團結合作的典范，對打造更加緊密的中非命運共同體，構建相互尊重、公平正義、合作共贏的新型國際關系具有重要示范意義。
Over the past six years, our two countries have worked closely as co-chairs of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) to advance the comprehensive strategic and cooperative partnership between China and Africa. Our bilateral ties have thus served as a model for China-Africa relations, for South-South cooperation, and for unity and cooperation among emerging market countries, and offered valuable experience for building an even stronger community with a shared future between China and Africa and a new type of international relations featuring mutual respect, fairness and justice, and win-win cooperation.
兩國高層交往頻繁，各領域務實合作成果豐碩。兩國領導人保持著密切互訪、會晤、交流，為兩國關系發展進行頂層設計和戰略指引。中國連續9年為南非第一大貿易伙伴國，南非也已成為中國在非洲最大貿易伙伴。2017年，雙邊貿易額391.7億美元，比建交之初增長了20多倍。據不完全統計，中方累計對南非直接投資已超過102億美元，增長了80多倍，為當地創造了數以萬計就業機會，有力助推了南非經濟發展。一大批中國企業在南非投資興業并取得重要成功，書寫了中南互利雙贏、共同發展的精彩故事。南非企業在華投資同樣取得不俗業績。
We enjoy close high-level exchanges and fruitful practical cooperation across the board. Our leaders have, through frequent mutual visits, meetings and other exchanges, provided top-level and strategic guidance for the bilateral ties. China has been South Africa's largest trading partner for nine years in a row, and South Africa has become China's largest trading partner in Africa. Two-way trade totaled 39.17 billion U.S. dollars in 2017, more than 20 times the figure at the start of our diplomatic engagement. Preliminary statistics show that China's direct investment in South Africa has grown by more than 80 times and exceeded 10.2 billion U.S. dollars in cumulative terms, creating tens of thousands of jobs for local communities and giving a strong boost to the South African economy. Many Chinese companies are running successful businesses in South Africa, which is a full testament to our mutually beneficial relationship for common development. South African companies, for their part, are also making great success in China.
近年來，中南通過互辦國家年、正式啟動中南高級別人文交流機制等舉措，拉近了兩國人民的心靈距離，增進了相互了解和友誼。兩國教育、文化、科技、衛生、青年、婦女等領域交流合作不斷擴大。南非已成為吸引中國游客最多、建立友好省市最多、設立孔子學院和孔子課堂最多的撒哈拉以南非洲國家。中國也已成為備受南非留學生和游客青睞的求學和旅游目的地。中國中醫藥企業正積極開拓南非市場，為南非民眾通過針灸、拔罐等中醫藥療法祛病除疾、增進健康提供了新選擇。中國志愿者廣泛動員在南非的中資企業和華僑華人同當地動物保護組織合作，為非洲野生動物保護事業貢獻力量。這些都是對中南、中非友好的生動詮釋。
In recent years, measures such as hosting the Year of China/South Africa and launching the High-Level People-to-People Exchange Mechanism have brought our two peoples even closer with greater mutual understanding and friendship. We have seen expanding cooperation in such areas as education, culture, science and technology, and health, and growing exchanges between our youths and women. South Africa has attracted more Chinese tourists, established sister relations with more Chinese provinces and cities, and opened more Confucius Institutes and classrooms than any other Sub-Saharan country. China has become an increasingly popular destination for South African students and tourists. Traditional Chinese medicine companies are actively exploring the South African market, introducing acupuncture, cupping and other traditional Chinese therapies to the South African people as a new option to treat illnesses and keep fit. Chinese volunteers have mobilized Chinese companies and Chinese communities in South Africa to partner with local animal conservation organizations and make their contribution to wildlife protection in Africa. These are all powerful examples of China-South Africa and China-Africa friendship.
當前，南非踏上了國家建設和發展的新征程，拉馬福薩總統提出了發展經濟、創造就業、改善民生、推進社會轉型等目標，并宣布南非進入了一個“充滿希望和信心的新時代”。我們愿同南非方一道，以兩國建交20周年為契機，“百尺竿頭，更進一步”，推動中南全面戰略伙伴關系更好更快向前發展。
South Africa is now on a new journey of national development. President Ramaphosa has put forth the goals of growing the economy, creating jobs, improving people's lives and advancing social transformation, thereby ushering South Africa into a new era of hope and confidence. China looks forward to working with South Africa to build on the momentum of the 20th anniversary of diplomatic ties and strive for faster and greater progress in our comprehensive strategic partnership.
——行穩致遠，將中南政治互信不斷提升至新水平。我們要繼續保持高層交往，加強黨際合作和治國理政經驗交流，在事關彼此核心利益和重大關切問題上相互理解、相互支持，永遠做彼此信得過的好朋友、好兄弟、好伙伴。我期待著9月在北京接待拉馬福薩總統訪華并共同主持中非合作論壇北京峰會。
- We must steadily elevate our political mutual trust to new levels. We need to maintain high-level exchanges, strengthen inter-party cooperation and governance experience sharing, continue to provide each other with mutual understanding and support on issues bearing on our respective core interests and major concerns, and stay forever as each other's reliable good friend, good brother and good partner. I look forward to receiving President Ramaphosa in Beijing in September and co-chairing with him the FOCAC Beijing Summit.
——銳意進取，推動中南務實合作不斷取得新成果。我們要加強兩國發展戰略對接，發揮好雙邊、中非合作論壇、“一帶一路”、金磚國家合作等機制和平臺作用，不斷深化兩國產業產能、資源能源、基礎設施建設、金融、旅游、數字經濟等重點領域合作，更好造福兩國人民。
- We must strive for new outcomes in our practical cooperation. We need to promote complementarity between our development strategies, and make full use of bilateral mechanisms, FOCAC, the Belt and Road Initiative, BRICS cooperation, and other platforms to deepen cooperation in key areas such as industries, production capacity, resources and energy, infrastructure, finance, tourism, and digital economy and deliver more benefits to our peoples.
——擴大交往，為中南人文交流不斷增添新動力。我們要發揮好中南高級別人文交流機制重要作用，加強兩國民間往來，擴大教育、文化、科技、衛生、體育、青年、婦女、智庫、媒體等領域交流合作，夯實中南友好社會民意基礎，讓兩國人民的手牽得更緊、心貼得更近。
- We must increase communication to add new impetus to our people-to-people exchanges. We need to leverage the role of the High-Level People-to-People Exchange Mechanism in enhancing communication between our peoples, expand cooperation in education, culture, science and technology, health, and sports, and promote exchanges between youths, women, think tanks and media outlets. Such measures will bring greater public support for China-South Africa friendship, and make our peoples be more closely connected.
——加強配合，推動中南戰略協作不斷邁上新臺階。我們要相互支持辦好2018年中非合作論壇北京峰會和金磚國家領導人第十次會晤，加強在聯合國、二十國集團、金磚國家等多邊框架內的協調和合作，推動國際治理體系變革，共同維護非洲和廣大發展中國家根本利益，共同推動構建新型國際關系和人類命運共同體，共同為解決當今世界最緊迫的問題貢獻智慧和方案。
- We must strengthen collaboration and scale new heights in our strategic coordination. We need to support each other in hosting the 2018 FOCAC Beijing Summit and the 10th BRICS Summit, step up coordination and cooperation within multilateral frameworks including the UN, the G20 and BRICS, and promote the reform of the global governance system in a joint effort to advance the fundamental interests of African and other developing countries, to build a new type of international relations and a community with a shared future for mankind, and to contribute wisdom and proposals to solving the world's most pressing issues.
今年還是金磚國家領導人會晤啟動10周年。10年來，金磚合作取得巨大發展，影響不斷擴大。這次領導人會晤是金磚合作第二個“金色十年”的首次峰會。中方將全力支持南非方辦好這次會議，在“金磚國家在非洲：在第四次工業革命中共謀包容增長和共同繁榮”主題下，深化金磚戰略伙伴關系，加強金磚團結合作，助力金磚五國聯動發展。相信這次會晤必將開辟金磚合作更加美好的未來。
This year also marks the 10th anniversary of the BRICS Summit. Ten years on, BRICS cooperation has achieved remarkable development and gained an ever-growing influence. This year's summit will be the first one held in the second "Golden Decade" of BRICS cooperation. China will go all out to support South Africa in hosting this event. Under the theme of "BRICS in Africa: Collaboration for Inclusive Growth and Shared Prosperity in the Fourth Industrial Revolution," we will deepen BRICS strategic partnership, enhance BRICS solidarity and cooperation, and facilitate the inter-connected development of BRICS countries. We are confident that this summit will usher in an even brighter future for BRICS cooperation.
今年也是新南非首任總統曼德拉先生誕辰100周年。曼德拉先生曾經說過，“非洲重獲新生已經不再只是一個理想，其種子已經撒遍非洲各個區域，撒遍整個非洲大陸。”上個世紀，南非和非洲經過不懈奮斗重獲新生。我堅信，本世紀將迎來南非和非洲大陸的全面振興。讓我們攜起手來，并肩前行，昂首闊步，共同開創中南友好新時代！
This year celebrates yet another important event, the 100th anniversary of Nelson Mandela, the inaugural president of the new South Africa. To quote Mr. Mandela, "The African rebirth is now more than an idea. Its seeds are being sown in the regional communities we are busy building and in the continent as a whole." With unremitting efforts, South Africa and the rest of the African Continent gained a new life in the last century. I am confident that this century will witness the rejuvenation of South Africa and that of the whole African Continent. Let us work together for a new era of China-South Africa friendship.
