Chinese President Xi Jinping has committed to helping Zambia stabilize the food supply chain should the harvest crop focus show that they will be a crop failure.
Special Assistant to the President for Press and Public Relations Amos Chanda says the Chinese President said this through the speaker of the Chinese parliament Zhang Dejiang when he met President Lungu on Saturday that that he is personally making a follow up on the food stability because food stability entails stability of a nation.
President Jimping has also congratulated Zambia for the robust infrastructure development programme that has taken place between 2011 and now citing that the Chinese government will urge all its contractors to ensure that they deliver good quality infrastructure development.
Mr. Chanda explains that of specific mention was the proposed 397 million dollars Ndola international airport project and that he stated that the contractor will receive the full support of the Chinese authority to ensure that construction works begin on schedule.
And President Lungu has commended China for being an all weather friend and committed that the development programmes between Zambia and China will be accelerated.

LT, please do not waste space reporting comments by this dullard Amos Chanda.
This clown is obviously mentally challenged and an embarrassment to the level of intelligence of even a PF Government overflowing with incompetence.
So now we are in need of assistance stablising food chains…yet Lubinda stated differently
..do we really need a foreign hand to help us stabilise our own food chain sure…???…let these guys assist us in tech which we lag behind but certainly not food…..we shall soon be enslave if someone else has to preside over our food chain….then our leaders in food security are supposed to be rendered useless and incompetent…..by the way why have a nonentity announce such a big policy like venture??
Aii!? Instead they want people to be eating GMO’s, pesticides and all kinds of other garbage
Watch out for six winged & eight-legged chickens!!! (GMO)
just tell us how much you are borrowing in the name of food supply chain.
Anything for a profit… including toxic foods!!
TOXIC FOODS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Look up plastic rice from china.
Beware of Chinese fake eggs….video on YTube
You need a foeigner to assist you with your own food secruity …what shame…you will also obtain a loan on top of that!!
What type of leadership is this from PF? This is total failure indeed!
Cancer Causing Pollutants
Farmed-raised fish is generally exposed to cancerous organic pollutants 10 times more than wild tilapia. Moreover, one of the main ingredients in the feed is chicken poop. And, pig and duck waste processed into fish food is also quite common.
Higher Pesticides and Antibiotics
Farm-bred fish generally pack higher content of pesticides and antibiotics. This basically comes down to the fact that farm fish are bred in a crowd, which makes them more susceptible to diseases. That’s why they’re often given antibiotics so as to keep them healthy. Pesticides are also part of their menu in order to kill sea lice. These pesticides are in fact so strong that can kill wild salmon when exposed to them accidentally. This is not all because these pesticides are then…
In Indonesia classrooms have been closed because of the heat wave and in the UK there have been unprecedented floods all caused by El Nino but the opposition is not blaming government. There is widespread shortage of food in Malawi, SA and Zimbabwe where 4m people are in need of food all caused by you guessed it El Nino. In Zimbabwe the only complaint from the opposition is unfair distribution of food. Unfortunately it does not matter what I say because people have a conspiracy theory mentality that pick and choose what to believe in. This is why you have people in America who think that the moon landing was a hoax and it actually landed in an area with moon like features on earth.
Well said@Senior Engineer RTD but these UPND goons have a fixed mind so no matter how much you try to explain things to them, they will deliberately ignore or try to twist them. To them everything is attributed to ECL as if their demigod HH is any defferent.
