After careful selection by the judges, 70 winning works were selected, including two special awards, three first prizes, five second prizes, 10 third prizes and 50 encouragement awards. From your paintings on display we find beauty of China in children’s eyes which are pure, simple and beautiful. The paintings are colorful, vivid and full of imagination. The Great Wall, the ancient pagoda, the giant dragon and the panda are all symbolic elements of China. We are able to see the beauty of China through the paintings and touch the Chinese Culture under the future young artists’ brushes. I like your paintings very much!
中国与文莱有着悠久的交往历史和传统友谊，两国隔海相望，是睦邻。文莱有王总兵路和蒲公墓，中国南京有浡泥国王墓，这都是两国友好交往的历史见证。近年来，中文关系迅速发展。2018年，中国国家主席习近平成功访问文莱，两国元首决定将两国关系提升为战略合作伙伴关系。今年4月，文莱苏丹陛下出席在北京举行的第二届“一带一路”国际合作高峰论坛。中文关系站在新的起点。
China and Brunei facing each other across the sea, are good neighbors sharing a long history of exchanges and traditional friendship. Jalan Ong Sum Ping and Pu Kung Chih Mu in Bandar Seri Begawan and the Tomb of the King of Boni in China’s Nanjing city witnessed the long history of friendly interactions between our two countries. In the past few years, China-Brunei relations have developed rapidly. In 2018, Chinese President Xi Jinping paid a successful visit to Brunei. Last April, His Majesty attended the second “Belt and Road” Forum for International Cooperation in Beijing. Our relations now have come to a new point.
国与国的友好合作需要民间的支持与参与，有了民意基础，国家友好的根基就更牢靠。举办本次“美丽中国”文莱小学生绘画比赛的目的，就是希望小朋友们更多地了解中国、认识中国、喜欢中国，成为中文友好的后备力量。中国有广袤的国土、秀美的风光、灿烂的文化、友善的人民。欢迎大家到中国去旅游，亲身感受中国。
The friendly cooperation between countries requires people’s support and participants. The purpose of holding this “Beauty of China” painting competition is to promote China among children. We hope children in Brunei know more about China, understand more about China, like China, and become supporters of China-Brunei friendship. China has vast territory, beautiful scenery, splendid culture and friendly people. You are welcome to travel to China and experience China by yourself. We do hope to see you again in the future events related with China.
谢谢你们。
Thank you.
