Video Message on Chinese Language Day 2021
By H.E. Mr. Zhang Jun, Ambassador and Permanent Representative of China to the United Nations
20 April, 2021
April 20 is the UN Chinese Language Day and Guyu (Grain Rain), the 6th of the 24 solar terms in the Chinese lunar calendar. Legend has it that Cangjie created Chinese characters on this day. The Chinese language, written in Chinese characters, is a crystallization of Chinese wisdom and a common asset of all humankind.
Chinese is one of the six official languages of the UN. The use of Chinese has ensured the effective implementation of the work of the UN and enhanced the understanding of the UN by Chinese people and Chinese speakers. We hope that the UN will continue to uphold multilingualism and strive to achieve equality in the use of Chinese and other official languages.
The Chinese language has witnessed the history of the UN’s founding and China's participating participation in UN endeavors. China was the first country to sign the UN Charter. The Chinese characters on the Charter’s first signature page demonstrates China's firm commitment to the purposes and principles of the Charter.
In the five decades since the restoration of its lawful seat in the UN, China has actively participated in UN’s work, firmly upheld the UN-centered international system and the international order underpinned by international law, and made significant contributions to world peace and development.
On the occasion of the 12th Chinese Language Day, I express my hope that more people will love and learn the Chinese language, and use it to know more about China and the UN. I hope that Chinese language will play a more important role in the work of the UN, raise the voice of support for multilateralism, and continue to be an important medium to promote world peace and development and a bond to enhance friendship and trust between the people of China and people of the rest of the world.
最后,祝愿此次联合国中文日活动取得圆满成功!
To conclude, I wish the celebration of the UN Chinese Language Day a great success. 作者: Alicekingjs 时间: 2021-5-24 16:11
