Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari visited Changsha City in central China's Hunan Province on Sunday and Monday, with a strong focus on boosting bilateral economic and trade ties.
Zardari arrived in China on Saturday for a week-long trip through May 1, with stops in Hunan and Hainan Province in south China.
On Sunday, the Pakistani president visited major companies, including the heavy equipment manufacturing company SANY Group and Hunan Tea Group, looking to expand cooperation in infrastructure and agriculture.
At SANY, Zardari was shown unmanned counterbalanced forklifts and other high-tech equipment.
At Hunan Tea Group, he alluded to the shared tea culture between the two countries and called for closer cooperation to support Pakistan's agricultural modernization.
The Pakistani president also awarded the Sitara-i-Pakistan, a high-level civil award in Pakistan, to Chinese doctor Pan Xiangbin, who led his team to perform life-saving heart surgeries on Pakistani children in 2025.
Also on Sunday, Zardari witnessed the signing of several memoranda of understanding between China and Pakistan, covering areas including seawater desalination, agriculture, and people-to-people exchanges.
On Monday, Zardari traveled to Shaoshan, the hometown of late Chinese leader Mao Zedong, where he presented a flower basket and visited Mao's memorial hall and former residence.
