(ECNS) -- The story between the U.S. teacher Ronald Sakolsky and Chinese woman Yin Yuzhen is a vivid example of friendly people-to-people exchanges between the two countries, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said on Monday at a regular press briefing.

According to the spokesperson, more than 20 years ago, Sakolsky, then working in China as an American teacher, managed to secure a donation of $5,000 to support the afforestation efforts of Yin and her husband.
Today, the saplings planted with that donation have grown into a forest of over 50,000 trees.
Mao noted that the stories of China-U.S. relations are written by our peoples.
He expressed confidence that the two peoples will keep adding new chapters of friendship and injecting fresh vitality into bilateral ties.
