Prime Minister, Dr the Right Honourable Keith Mitchell on Tuesday welcomed the new Ambassador of the People’s Republic of China to Grenada, His Excellency Wei Hongtian.
Receiving a courtesy call from the new Ambassador, Dr Mitchell expressed a desire to see the 2 countries continue to work closely together.
He said, “Grenada has been the beneficiary of significant support from China, including financial support and in a number of other areas such as education, healthcare and agriculture. As I welcome you today, it is my hope that through you, our countries can continue to work closely together to further mutual development objectives. We worked closely with your predecessor and we certainly look forward to continued collaboration.”
Dr Mitchell noted that the ambassador’s period of service comes at a time when the world is facing an enormous and unique challenge. He said, “We have to find unusual and innovative ways to adapt and deal with this pandemic, the health issues related to it, the social problems that are arising because of it and the serious political considerations. If there was ever a time for the world to work together, it would be now. It does not matter where you come from or what your philosophy is, the fact is, we are facing this deadly virus and we must work together.”
In his response, the Chinese Ambassador gave assurances that he will spare no effort in further developing the relationship between Grenada and China. With respect to the ongoing pandemic, he said China is committed to cooperation with countries and international organisations in fighting Covid-19.

God bless the peoples republic of China! America has done nothing for us than to just brain wash us with propaganda and drain money from our pockets making us go broke. China built a stadium, Housing Projects and is currently Upgrading the International Airport. America has never Signed a Visa Waiver Agreement giving us visa free access to the USA, they only do things to their own benefit and not ours. Since 2005 China has been giving out Scholarships to go study and has been helping the country in terms of building infrastructure.
The United States Of America is lacking a better relationship with Caribbean countries in terms of them not providing us with benefits and Visa Free Access. I want to see America doing more if they feel that the Chinese should go.
I hope that Grenada Strengthens relationships with China given the fact that China has been doing so much for us over the years which we are very thankful for. I hope that China would continue to do more for us given the fact that we live in an era where people are full of greed and selfish being brainwashed by American Propaganda.
Yes I do believe that any thing we owe to the Chinese can be payed back and we wouldn’t have to worry about the Chinese taking over the Caribbean if we would just stop buying into what America has been brainwashing us with and if we just pay our taxes so that the Government can pay back.
All America wants to do is keep the Black man down in poverty while the Chinese come to help educate us.
If you think China is your friend you are extremely wrong. They have no morals.
They will keep the black man down as to the pink, purple, white, red man.
yes while they have developed our country! meanwhile america still hasnt done anything for us!
Panhandling to Communist Regime that inflicts Debt Traps on desperate countries is alarming.
We being damaged be this Covid Virus is nothing to ever forget.
I question this ” anonymously ” written propaganda. Its tasteless for one and I urge NOW Grenada that Comments posted need to have the person’s name listed. It appears too fabricated & phony. Our feelings are totally opposite.
