China has promised to continue supporting Zambia in preserving the existing bilateral monumental structures and historical features of the two countries.
Chinese Ambassador to Zambia Hang Youming said this is aimed at sustaining the legacy of the founding fathers who worked tirelessly in strengthening the two countries’ bilateral relationships for the past fifty years.
Mr. Youming noted that the existing bilateral historical features and monumental structures were a catalyst of a continued bilateral relationship for the future generation.
He said this in Lusaka today during the handover of two hundred and ten thousand Zambia China fifty year’s diplomatic relations commemorative postal stamps to the Zambia Postal Services Corporation (ZAMPOST).
The six featured commemorative stamps, which were printed in China, depict pictures of former Presidents Kenneth Kaunda and the late Michael Sata’s visits to China, the Tanzania Zambia Railways Authority (TAZARA), the New Heroes stadium, the Great Wall of China and the Victoria falls.
And ZAMOST Acting Post Master General Alex Muyeye described the gesture as the true cultivation of the existing fifty years bilateral relationship between China and Zambia.
Mr. Muyeye also said the new postal stamps will further spread the existing strong bilateral, economic and trade relationship between China and Zambia both locally and internationally.
Folks I warned that as we count down to January 20th 2015, reports about and against PF President Edgar Lungu will constitute alarm, scandal, ridicule and other allegations to demean, undermine or scandalise him because he is deemed as a clear front runner.
The story in The Post is a case in point.
Someone took time to manufacture information and purportedly signed by a Mr. Gupta.
To my knowledge Hon. Lungu doesn’t even have a doctor called Gupta

Zambian stamps with Chinese great wall on it,seems we become china province.
Or Ballot papers??
China is sucking our blood while we sleep. Does it mean the stamps could not be printed locally (after 50yrs of independent)? And why should china decide what type of stamp we use and what goes on that stamp? We are not a province of China.
