SOUNDBITE (Portuguese): HENRIQUE NOBREGA, President of the Brazil-China Friendship Association
"I think that the culture reflects the values in society, reflecting your values and your choices.
And culture is a way for you to establish relationships and it is used as an economic link, because culture also generates jobs, culture also generates investments. I think that Brazil and China have great potential to carry out cultural activities such as movie productions, cultural exchange and in the industries of music, theater.
When it comes to the BRICS, I think it's important because China is the largest BRICS country in Asia and Brazil is the largest BRICS country in South America. So they are at the forefront of the development of the bloc, which, I think, will perhaps generate a new global landscape.
I think that universities in South America and China can establish partnerships to develop new technologies that are beneficial for both countries."
