Exclusive with Samoan Prime Minister

Editor's Note: Facing immense development challenges, Pacific island nations now bear the brunt of climate change, making modernization through technological innovation a priority. How can China provide targeted solutions to assist these nations? How can they learn from China's experience? In this edition of Leaders Talk, CMG's Wang Guan sat down in Beijing with Samoan Prime Minister Fiamē Naomi Mata'afa on the last leg of her nine-day visit to China from Nov. 20 to 28. Mata'afa looks to China to help change agricultural practices, protect the ecosystem, and provide a market for some of Samoa's produces. She praises China for its people-centered approach to government and high-tech prowess. Mata'afa also reckons that China's global initiatives "address challenges and create opportunities."
