The two countries, meanwhile, vowed to continue promoting cooperation in culture, education, health, tourism, sports and journalism, and encourage the sponsorship of cultural days and cultural festivals by each other as well as exchanges between youths of the two countries.

Both sides will further their close cooperation so as to continue improving the facilities and quality of teaching in the Confucius Institute in Tajikistan, the communique said.

In the joint communique, both sides also hailed Tajik President Emomali Rahmon's working visit to China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region in June, saying the visit was crucial in boosting the Sino-Tajik ties as well as cooperation at local levels between the two countries.
