Chinese Police to Leave for Bosnia and HerzegovinaFive Chinese policemen are leaving for Bosnia and Herzegovina soon on a peace-keeping mission, said sources with China's Ministry of Public Security Thursday.This will be the first time for China to send peace-keeping police outside Asia. When meeting with the five policemen, Public Security Minister Jia Chunwang urged them to adopt a strong sense of duty and esponsibility. He hoped that their work would help portray a good image of Chinese police. China sent 55 peace-keeping policemen to East Timor within the United Nations framework last year. Chinese Foreign Minister Tang Jiaxuan had written to UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan, announcing that China will dispatch policemen to Bosnia and Herzegovina at the request of the UN.
