Qatar and China have signed an agreement on Qatar's participation in the International Horticultural Exhibition 2019 in Beijing.

Qatar's ambassador to the China Sultan bin Salmeen al-Mansouri and Wang Jin Qin, representative of the government of the People's Republic of China, signed the agreement.

The signing ceremony took place at the headquarters of Qatar's mission in China.

Ambassador al-Mansouri said that Qatar's participation in the International Horticultural Exhibition reflects the Qatari urbanisation pattern, agriculture methods, gardens and tree species and the level of ecological civilisation in the country.

China, he said, has provided a huge area of 2,100 square meters to set up Qatar's pavilion.

He pointed out that the Ministry of Municipality and Environment will oversee the design and setting up of Qatar's pavilion, pointing out that a committee was formed to prepare for the International Horticultural Exhibition 2019 in Beijing and ensure the success of this participation.

At the end of the exhibition, Qatar's pavilion will be presented as a gift for China to be kept in the international garden as a symbol of friendship and bilateral co-operation, he said.
