CCTV9英语新闻：China-Australia pledge to enhance bilateral relations（在线收听）

Chinese and Australian leaders have vowed to enhance bilateral relations to achieve healthy, sustainable development. 

The pledge was made Saturday in Sydney during a meeting between Liu Qibao, head of the Publicity Department of the CPC Central Committee, and Australian Governor General Peter Cosgrove.

Liu was on a two-day visit to Australia that started Friday. Liu called on both countries to boost bilateral relations through more communication. The China-Australia Free Trade Agreement came into effect in December last year. China was Australia’s top trading partner in 2015, and two-way trade accounts for almost a quarter of Australia’s total international trade volume.

A documentary titled “The War that Changed the World,” co-produced by China and Australia, also made its debut Saturday.
