The relations have no limits and are sure to grow even closer, he affirmed.
The official noted that the sides must be forerunners in international cooperation against COVID-19, pacesetters in regional cooperation, and defenders of stability in the Asia-Pacific region.
ASEAN and China set up their ties in 1991 and upgraded the relations to a strategic partnership in October 2003.
The ASEAN-China relationship has been realised through many mechanisms including an annual summit, ministerial meetings, and five-year action plans./.
