Mr. Yu, who is four months old in the country, said this when he paid a courtesy call on the Greater Accra Regional Minister, Sheikh Ibrahim C. Quaye in Accra. He pledged his country's preparedness to partner with Ghana in ensuring that the relationship would improve the everyday lives of the people.

Sheikh I. C. Quaye said China's support in Ghana's infrastructural development and managerial skills had made the country one of the most developed in West Africa. The Minister said China's financial support for the Bui Dam, the energy and road sectors spoke of the strength of the relationship between the two countries.
