Chinese Consul General makes his inaugural visit to Minnesota
Newly appointed Consul General Yang Guoqiang for the Consulate General of the People’s Republic China in Chicago recently visited with representatives of the Chinese community in Minnesota at a meeting organized by community leader, Vincent Mar. Making his first visit to Minnesota, Consul General Yang traveled with his wife along with several other staff Consul members based at the Consulate in Chicago.
In his opening remarks to the gathering, Consul General Yang stated that he was pleased to be visiting Minnesota since it is one of the nine states that his consulate covers which also includes Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Colorado, Michigan, Missouri and Wisconsin. He noted that during recent times there have been many meaningful contacts between China and the midwest region of the United States.
Thus he states, “My consulate is committed to further promoting cooperation and exchanges between the two sides in various fields, protecting the legal rights of Chinese citizens in the consular districts and providing consular services related to passport, visa, notary public and authentification to both local Chinese and non-Chinese people.”
