Both sides should steadily advance the construction of key projects with safety ensured to help Myanmar develop its economy and improve people's livelihoods, Xi said when holding talks with visiting President of Myanmar Min Aung Hlaing in Beijing.
Noting the two peoples enjoy deep "pauk-phaw" friendship, Xi said the friendship between China and Myanmar has stood the test of time.
Since the establishment of diplomatic relations 76 years ago, the two countries have supported each other through thick and thin and jointly championed and practiced the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, setting an example of equality and mutually beneficial cooperation between nations, he said.
