Chinese Premier Li Qiang met with a delegation led by Patti Hill, the international president of the Lions Clubs International, in Beijing on Sunday.
Li appreciated the organization's contributions to the global and Chinese charitable undertakings and thanked them for their long-term support for the cause of blindness prevention and treatment in China.
Noting that the Chinese nation has a fine tradition of being kind, benevolent and assisting those in need, Li said the Chinese government attaches great importance to the development of charitable and public welfare undertakings and encourages and supports social organizations to play an active role in them.
It is hoped that the Lions Clubs International will strengthen exchanges and cooperation with the China Disabled Persons' Federation and the China Council of Lions Clubs. Li added that the Chinese side is willing to join hands with the Lions Clubs International to contribute more to world peace, development and human progress.
Hill said the Lions Clubs International thanks China for its contribution to international charity. The Lions Clubs International adheres to the one-China principle and is willing to strengthen cooperation and mutual learning with China to jointly promote the development of global and Chinese charitable causes.
