The President of Ghana is in China on his state visit to Beijing. As a part of agreements signed by the both sides, China is going to give $10.4 billion loan to help build railway system, energy and water projects.
John Atta Mills have chosen Beijing, instead of going to New York for the UN General Assembly focusing on Millennium Challenge Goals for developing countries. The UNGA is well attended by U.S. President Obama, Chinese Premier Wen and other world leaders.
According to a Ghana News Agency report, the Ghanaian President commended China for maintaining its ties with Ghana "at a time when many nations would not have anything to do with us.""Our Chinese brothers stood behind us and showed that they cared," President Mills said, attracting an applause from the audience.
Another GNA report quoted that President Mills said China has been generous to Ghana, adding: "China points to the way what can be achieved with sacrifice, hard work and discipline."
He said: "if African leaders are flocking to China, they want to see the source of your magic," he said in Shenzhen, the economic hub of China's Guandong Province on the fourth day of his five- day state visit to China.
