Many of China's projects to assist South Pacific island countries have made important progress, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said on Monday at a regular press conference. 

Papua New Guinea's Enga Provincial Hospital, Samoa's China-Samoa Friendship Park and other projects have been successfully completed and handed over, Mao said. 

Other projects such as the Kiribati Youth Park renovation project, the Solomon Islands National University dormitory building, and the first phase of the Vanuatu Pentecost Island Road project have been started, she added. 

The above progress is the result of sincere cooperation between China and the island countries as well as the practice of the concept of building a community with shared future, Mao said. 

In developing relations with South Pacific island countries, China has always insisted on mutual respect, win-win cooperation, openness and inclusiveness, Mao said, adding that the assistance to the island countries is sincere and result-oriented without any political conditions. 

China is ready to strengthen pragmatic cooperation with the island countries in various fields and bring more tangible benefits to the people of the island countries, she added.
