In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
His Excellency Mr. Li Shian Nian President of the People's Republic of China,
Your Excellency's congratulatory message on the New Solar Hijri Year is acknowledged with gratitude. It is hoped that in this New Year our great and combatant nation will complete its past victories along the path of realizing the Islamic ideals and delivering the downtrodden people of the world from subjection to the arrogant powers, and attain its lofty objectives.
