BEIJING, May 19 (Xinhua) -- China has set up a platform to boost aviation cooperation with Africa, the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) said on Tuesday.
The cooperation platform will integrate resources and share information on aviation development between China and Africa, according to the CAAC.
New flights will be added between China and Africa, and more effort will be made to boost aviation training and flight safety technology cooperation, said CAAC deputy director Wang Zhiqing.
During his visit to Africa in May last year, Chinese Premier Li Keqiangsaid Beijing encouraged Chinese enterprises to form joint ventures with African counterparts to improve Africa's aviation industry.
China has since moved forward on co-founded airlines, technology and aircraft exports.
