The Ministry had full confidence that ACC would achieve further success under the leadership of the new Secretary-General and make greater contributions to the all-dimensional friendship and cooperation between China and ASEAN.
Deputy Director-General Bai opined that as a veteran diplomat, Madam Yang's diplomatic career had covered the portfolios of Asia Pacific, South Asia and Southeast Asia, from bilateral to multilateral.

It was believed that with Madam Yang’s leadership, wisdom, dedication and wide connections in both China and ASEAN countries, ACC would have an even brighter future with more achievements in its way forward. The Chinese MFA would continue to give its full support to the ACC Secretariat and its new Secretary-General in their future work.

She expressed appreciation to former ACC Secretary-General Ma Mingqiang for having laid a very good foundation for the work of ACC, and to all the colleagues of ACC for their unremitting efforts to promote the development of ASEAN-China relations. Yang pledged to work together with all the colleagues of ACC to fulfill the big task ahead, which was to work for the better future of China and 10 ASEAN countries, for the better future of ASEAN-China cooperation, as well as for the better life and well-being for the 2 billion people of ASEAN and China.
