Description

On 13 August, 2018, the Chinese naval hospital ship Ark Peace arrived at Port Nukualofa, capital of the Kingdom of Tonga, the fourth stop of Mission Harmony 2018, starting an eight-day good-will visit and humanitarian medical service. Ark Peace paid her first successful visit to Tonga on the same date four years ago. (See project #37762) The Tongan government hosted a grand welcome ceremony at the Vuna Wharf. At the ceremony, the Acting Prime Minister Sika warmly welcomed Ark Peace's second visit to Tonga on behalf of the Tongan government and conveyed his appreciation to the ship for providing medical services to the Tongan people. Ambassador Wang pointed out that the second visit of Ark Peace, as an important part of events to jointly celebrate the 20th anniversary of the normalization of relations between China and Tonga, will further strengthen mutual trust and friendship between the two countries and the two armed forces.
