A delegation led by Dalva Ringote Allen, the newly-appointed ambassador of Angola to China, visited the University of Macau (UM) today (14 November) and was warmly received by UM Rector Yonghua Song and Vice Rector Rui Martins. The two parties held in-depth discussions on promoting academic and research collaboration and talent development between the two places.

Song provided an overview of the history of higher education in Macao, as well as UM’s latest developments in areas such as academic and scientific research, international cooperation, campus development, and student services. Martins then gave a detailed presentation on collaborative projects and alliances between UM and universities in Portuguese-speaking countries, UM’s international student scholarships, and the learning situation of Angolan students studying at UM.

Dalva Ringote Allen spoke highly of UM’s achievements, noting that the university has promoted cooperation with universities in Portuguese-speaking countries, fostering talent development and improving teaching quality in African countries, as well as promoting cultural exchange. She emphasised that UM is an important partner for Angola in higher education, and that this partnership not only strengthens the friendship between the two places but also lays the foundation for future development. She pledged to support UM’s cooperation and exchange with Angola in higher education and talent development, and expressed hope that the two sides will engage in deeper cooperation in other areas.
