Jan 28, Chinese New Year Eve, Ambassador Qiu XiaoQi celebrates CNY with Chinese students in Spain.

Qiu says that China has surpassed England and France to become the 4th largest economy in the world. The interest in China among Spanish community has reached a historic height. The Spanish government made an "Asian-Pacific Action Plan" last December to further strengthen its ties with AP region, and China is put to the most prominent position in the entire Plan. Chinese President Hu Jin Tao's visit to Spain last November is one of the most important events of Sino-Spanish relationship during recent years. During the less than 48 hour visit, King Carlos I met five times with President Hu in different occasions, including a very private royal family dinner, which is rarely seen in diplomatic activities.

Ambassador Qiu encourages the students on their study. He says that he has heard many Spanish companies complaining about the lack of professionals who can speak both good Chinese and Spanish.

After the speech, Qiu watches CCTV's Spring Festival Gala with all those present.
