女士們，先生們！

Ladies and Gentlemen,

中方珍視與葡語國家的友誼，愿意在力所能及的范圍內(nèi)向亞非葡語國家提供幫助。論壇設(shè)立以來，中國與亞非葡語國家累計簽署優(yōu)惠貸款框架協(xié)議金額60.9億元人民幣，減免2.3億元人民幣到期債務(wù)，為相關(guān)國家培訓(xùn)了7600名各類人才。上屆論壇中方提出的8項舉措已全部落實?，F(xiàn)在我宣布，今后3年中國政府將采取更大力度，提出18項新舉措，主要包括：

Since the launch of the forum, China has signed framework agreements to offer 6.09 billion yuan worth of concessional loans, reduced or canceled 230 million yuan worth of matured debts, and trained 7,600 professionals for Asian and African Portuguese-speaking countries.
