During his visit to China at the invitation of the CPAFFC in September 2004, Paul Hoeffel, chief of the Non-Governmental Organizations Section of DPI held talks with the CPAFFC. Both sides agreed to report UN activities on CPAFFC’s journal Voice of Friendship.

N. is added. In doing so we hope to raise public concern about major global issues.展开更多
