Lauding China as a “master” in water management, Yunus calls for access to Beijing’s strategies and expertiseChief Advisor Muhammad Yunus has sought a 50-year masterplan on water management from China, highlighting its utility in controlling floods and maintaining water systems. The appeal came during a meeting on Friday at a state guesthouse in Beijing, where Yunus sat down with China’s Minister of Water Resources Li Guoying. “We have come here to learn from you - how we can make water resources useful for the people,” he said. Li acknowledged that both nations grapple with comparable water management dilemmas and expressed China’s willingness to extend technical support and expertise. “President Xi has formulated a master plan for China, which the country is using to address water management challenges,” Li said.
