One delegation member, a painter from Eritrea, said that he is fond of traditional Chinese culture and hopes to show Guizhou to more people through his art. He sent one of his paintings as a gift to Guizhou Normal University's School of International Education.

Another delegation member from Rwanda said that he studied at Guizhou Normal University for three years and considers Guizhou his second hometown. He's glad to see the progress Guizhou has made and looks forward to visiting again.
