“新中雙方都認同，人文交流越頻繁，合作機遇越豐富?！?月14日，在國務(wù)院總理李強同新西蘭工商界代表座談后，新西蘭最大商業(yè)協(xié)會——新西蘭雇主及制造商協(xié)會(EMA)首席執(zhí)行官歐百利如是總結(jié)。

　　歐百利表示，新西蘭作家及社會活動家路易·艾黎(Rewi Alley)曾在華奮斗六十載，為新中兩國關(guān)系作出了巨大的貢獻，而如今中國對新西蘭推出免簽政策，更將進一步推動兩國人民的交流往來，為兩國帶來更多發(fā)展機遇。(林卓瑋)

　　“I think we recognize that the more people-to-people contact the two countries have, the greater the opportunities there are together,” concluded Brett Raymond O'Riley, chief executive of the Employers & Manufacturers Association (EMA), the largest of its kind in the country, after joining other people in the business and commercial circle in a meeting with Chinese Premier Li Qiang during his visit to New Zealand.

　　In a recent interview　with China News Network, O’Riley emphasized the significant role played by Rewi Alley, a New Zealand writer and social activist, in strengthening the bilateral relationship through his six decades of work alongside the Chinese people.

　　He believes that the friendly exchanges between the two peoples will continue to flourish with China's visa-waiving policy for New Zealand visitors, which is expected to create more opportunities for cooperation. O’Riley also expressed hope for a similar policy to be implemented by New Zealand in the near future. (Lin Zhuowei)
