Chinese Government held the Training Workshop on SHP Technology
for Francophone African Countries from October 18 to November
28, 2012, and HRC was entrusted to conduct it. Today,
the 42-day event is going to conclude. We, 35 participants
from 14 Francophone African Countries, i.e. Benin, Central
Africa, Comoros, Cote d¡¯Ivoire, Djibouti, Guinea, Equatorial
Guinea, Congo (Kinshasa), Madagascar, Niger, Morocco,
Mali, Togo and Tunisia, attend the training workshop,
which covers all the important aspects in SHP development.
Based on the training, we are well informed of all the
technical details concerned. During the 42 days, we are
deeply impressed by the new technology and advanced experience
of Chinese SHP, and our capacity of application are greatly
enlarged. The unique and successful mode of China is suitable
for our developing countries. It is well known that the
social and economic development in Africa is restrained
by many factors, and the implementation of the training
workshop embodies the friendship and the assistance from
Chinese Government, which is very beneficial to the promotion
of development in Africa. At present, we face many difficulties,
including the shortage of funds and other problems, however,
a friend in need is a friend indeed, we find the most
faithful friend of us --- China. We believe that China
is the friend of African countries forever, and we trust
China. Meanwhile, we would like to repay with the most
sincere friendship. We hope that based on the platform
of training, the Sino-African friendship will be continuously
strengthened with good results. We will bear China in
mind forever. Thank you, China, the good friend of Africa!
Long live the Sino-African Cooperation! Long live HRC!"
With warm applauses, the participants
were awarded the certificates issued by the Ministry of
Commerce and present with the souvenirs from HRC.

form the Ministry of Mines and Energy of Togo said: "Once
more, we want to thank you for all that HRC have done
for us! Here, we promise you that the blossom of friendship
would bear fruit in the near future! Just now, all of
our participants have got the precious certificates, and
now, we would like to, based on the common wish of all
the participants, issue a CERTIFICATE to HRC, confirming
