China Greece Times, a community newspaper that has been published in Greece in the Chinese language since 2005, has added a new section in the Greek language. “Our readers used to be Chinese who live and work in Greece but also Chinese visitors to the country,” the paper’s editor-in-chief, Lydia Liang, said to the Greek newspaper Kathimerini.
“However, as our two peoples had come so much closer over the past two years and the two governments are working closer together, we decided to expand to a Greek audience,” she added.
The launch of the Greek language section in the China Greece Times will bring the two peoples even closer, informing the Greeks about Chinese issues, especially businessmen looking to expand to Asia. “There are already businessmen who have found partners in China and expanded their activities, such as Coco-Mat with its mattresses, Vianex with pharmaceuticals and Boutaris wines,” journalist Giorgos Tzogopoulos said to Kathimerini. “Language has always been an obstacle and with this initiative we are removing it.”
The community newspaper which can be found near various tourist attractions across the city, can also be delivered by subscribing. It’s Greek section will focus on issues regarding China, the Chinese market and the diaspora community located in Greece.
