社评1004 庆祝几内亚国庆

庆祝几内亚国庆

旅居美国德州地区之几内亚社区人士定於本週六在休斯敦举办一整天之国庆庆祝活动， 将有来自德州圣安东尼、、 奥斯丁、 达拉斯等地之侨民参加。 

庆祝大会有各项舞蹈音乐表演， 各种文化传统服装来庆祝几内亚共和国之诞生。

歷史上几内亚曾经被葡萄牙及法国殖民，於一九五八年十月二日宣佈独立 。2021 年九月五日军人敦布亚发动政变组成过渡政府。 几内亚西濒大西洋，北隣几内亚比绍塞内加尓， 人口一千三百万， 国土面积2 4.59 万平方公里。 盛產铝钒土 ，储量400亿吨，佔世界第一位 ，并且在沿海大陆架已经发现石油， 极待开发各种矿物石油资源。

三年前自我被任命為几内亚驻德州名誉总领事以来， 曾举办数次几内亚投资研讨会。 由於新冠疫情关係， 一直未能前往几内亚访问， 月前在和新任几内亚驻美大使卡贝讨论后决定年内组成投资考察团前往访问。

对於这项外交任务，我本人感到无比之荣幸 ，并决心担任好两国在文化经济及政府沟通之工作，这也是我多年想当一名外交官之志愿。

 Guinea’s National Day Celebration

The Guinean communities living in Texas are scheduled to hold a full-day National Day celebration in Houston this Saturday which will be attended by people from San Antonio, Austin and Dallas. 

The celebration will include various dance and musical performances with traditional costumes to celebrate the birth of the Republic of Guinea. 

Historically, Guinea was colonized by Portugal and France. On October 2, 1958, Guinea declared its independence. 

Guinea’s western border is on the north of the Atlantic Ocean. The pollution is 13 million parts of 245,000 square meters. The country is rich with aluminum reserves of 40 billions tons which is the first in the world. The  oil was found just lately. The country is very ready to develop its various mineral and petroleum resources.

Since I was appointed as the Honorary Consul for Guinea at Houston three years ago, we have held several Guinean investment seminars. Due to the Covid epidemic, we have not been able to visit Guinea. 

I feel extremely honored for this diplomatic task and I am determined to try my best to continue to promote the relationship between our two countries.
