Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari said on Saturday that he would learn from China and further develop bilateral relation during his first visit to China.
While speaking to Chinese Ambassador to Pakistan Luo Zhaohui, Zardari said he is expecting the visit to China and wants to get to know the Chinese leaders.
Zardari will pay a state visit to China from Oct. 14 to 17, his first trip abroad since assuming office in September.
Pakistan, as a friendly neighbor, hopes it could benefit from China's rapid development, said Zardari, adding that his visit will focus on such fields as economy, trade, finance and energy.
Zardari said the new Pakistani government is committed to consolidating friendly relations with China, deepening mutually-beneficial cooperation and pursuing common development.
During his four-day visit to China, Zardari is expected to hold talks with Chinese President Hu Jintao and meet with other Chinese leaders, including top legislator Wu Bangguo, Premier Wen Jiabao and top political advisor Jia Qinglin.
