"We will continue actively promoting the synergy between China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative and Kuwait's Vision 2035, especially in technology collaboration between the two countries," the diplomat said, adding that China-Kuwait cooperation requires skilled ICT talents such as the alumni from Seeds for the Future.
