The plane carrying the head of state touched down at Beijing Capital International Airport at 14:53 hours local time.
President Lungu was received by Chinese People’s Political Council Consultative Conference Deputy Secretary General Zong Peng.
While in China President Lungu is expected to have a bilateral meeting with Chinese President XiJinping and Chinese prime minister LI Keqiang.
The President will then on Monday join other African leaders at the Forum on China Africa Corporation summit FOCAC in Beijing.
The head of state is also expected to attend the China Zambia business forum before visiting Jiangxi Province where he is going to witness the twinning of that province with Zambia’s Muchinga Province.
Another whole plane chartered in 7 days…what wasteful lazy moron!!
Why write “..the plane carrying the president landed”, as if he is dead.
Better “… The president landed at”.
I don’t like English, but worse I don’t like you people alarming us.
They have now stopped taking pictures of the whole aircraft because we will know the owners of the aircraft…
Chagwa and his gang of PF thugs mess up and now they are desperately trying to mop up and also mess up at the same time and the want us to applaud…. and they stup1dly believe that without the confidence that the IMF bailout brings with technical support that money from China will change things? They will not change their fiscal indiscipline and they will just lead us into a worse situation … F0000ls!!
Where is Sikazwe?
It is wishing it were itself! It will never be!
The dull servant has gone to give his master the report about development back at the village!!
Mwandi kwena yakosa nangu kwenda ba Presido cha chilamo nomba. Thought it was going to end awe
It will NEVER be president! It is a member of the Hatribes Utd Football club which regards others as ….
There there please
Who is the stewardess? She looks really good.
Its a chartered flight probably Indian company…so much for austerity measures!!
Forum on China–Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) ..i’m yet to see the fruits of all these talkshop forums between Africa and USA ,China ,Japan ,Turkey ,India and France.
It has become fashionable for each power in the world to have a talkshop summit where African leaders go to extend begging bowls ,borrow and talk aimlessly with no tangible change of African lives.
The Chinks are embarking on $1.3 trillion mega trade plan to revive the silk routes from Spain all the way to Zhengzhou..leaving a lot of countries in debt-traps, for countries that will be supplying raw material in Africa they are already under it thumb….fooools like dull Edgar here think they are getting a good deal as they are short-sighted and corrupt. Our future leaders will be reporting to Beijing every morning like those Provincial ministers around Zambia.
How is this summit going to benefit African countries?
They really should give their nations a report regarding the same summits.
because it costs money to travel abroad frequently to be honest.
Have these superpower forums ever changed anything? Still we got Chibolya misery ,our debt is thru the roof and worse still the Chinese are taking over everywhere in Zambia.
Just another joyride summit for per diem ,photo ops and begging bowls .
ONCE AGAIN HE HAS GONE TO CHINA TO SELL OUR COUNTRY – WE ARE BROKE, WE DON’T HAVE MONEY TO PAY CIVIL SERVANTS BECAUSE OF GRAND LOOTING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT PART OF THE COUNTRY ARE YOU GOING TO GIVE CHINA NOW ? WE THE PEOPLE OF ZAMBIA ARE TO BLAME FOR THIS LOOTING BECAUSE WE SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING YET WE SIT BACK WITHOUT SAYING ANYTHING !! OUR CHILDREN WILL NOT FORGIVE US FOR THE MISERY WE ARE GOING TO PUT THEM THROUGH.
where are the resident LT PF rats ?
can you emerge from you rats holes and give us an update on lungu going begging in a chartered plane in the midst of austerity ?
There are numerous commercial airlines he could have used as opposed to hiring a whole plane to fly him halfway around the world to attend a completely useless conference. This man is such a waste of time and space.
The fortunes of a woman dependent on a sponsor can change in an instant – either for better or worse.
Ooooops!
WRONG PAGE
Most African presidents travel with their spouse (wife)
yet another talk-show where African leaders are there to pay attention to what the Chinese leader will articulate issues which will make our leaders’ presence relevant. It’s a pity our African leaders never took the Botswana president seriously. Mr Khama showed these leaders that it was not always necessary to travel for meetings worldwide and exchange pleasantries. He had his own philosophy which fellow African leaders could have emulated but they did not. In Zimbabwe, he had the guts to tell Mugabe that he was not the only leader available to lead Zimbabwe. For the benefit of doubt, let the talk-show begin.

Hazaluza Hagain!
