  Chinese President Xi Jinping calls on the two countries to be forward-looking strategic partners.
  The two sides have agreed to lift bilateral ties to a new height by fully implementing the 5-10 Years Strategic Plan on Cooperation, boosting cooperation in six areas including in special economic zones, the maritime economy, industrial capacity, energy, infrastructure, and human resources development.
  President Xi also notes that China will facilitate South Africa's efforts to lead China-Africa cooperation on production capability across Africa and promote the continent's industrialization. China will also encourage more financing for South Africa, and support the early launch of the establishment of an African regional center for the New Development Bank for BRICS countries.
  This is Xi Jinping's second visit to the country; the first was in 2013 when he toured several African states.
  After his stay in Pretoria, the President will leave for Johannesburg to co-chair the Johannesburg Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation.
  The summit is expected to be an historic event that will help strengthen China-Africa solidarity and development.
  The two-day Johannesburg Summit, starting on Friday, is expected to adopt a declaration and action plan outlining measures that are aimed at consolidating China-Africa relations.
