The Silk Road of Hearts: A partnership rooted in people

From thriving fruit farms to martial arts lessons and medical classrooms, China and Cambodia are forging a deeper, people-centered partnership across trade, education and culture. This special segment explores how their long-standing friendship is evolving under new frameworks, such as the China-Cambodia Community with a Shared Future.

We meet China's "Queen of Fruits," Chen Xuemei, in central Henan Province – a pioneering entrepreneur now investing in Cambodia's agricultural sector at the invitation of the nation's top leader. In southern Guangzhou, we follow Cambodian language teacher Tiger as he revisits Chinese martial arts while teaching Khmer language and culture to Chinese students. And in southeastern city Kunming, we hear from Cambodian medical students training to bring new skills back home.

Through the lens of entrepreneurship, cultural exchange and healthcare education, "The Silk Road of Hearts" reveals how two nations are cultivating a future grounded in mutual respect, opportunity and human connection.
