KABUL, Aug. 9 (Xinhua) -- Since the resumption of direct flights between Kabul and Urumqi nike air max 97 blanche pas cher , the capital of northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, in mid July 2016, the Afghan national flag carrier Ariana Afghan Airlines flies once a week and returns to Kabul the next day.
This is the only air route that takes Afghans mostly from business community straight from the Afghan capital to China and vice versa.
The resumption of direct flight between the two neighboring nations after a three-year hiatus has been widely welcomed by Afghans and the people of Afghanistan want to see an increase in the number of flights between Kabul and other Chinese cities, sources close to the matter said.
"Afghanistan and China have been enjoying friendly relations since ancient times and the resumption of direct flights between Kabul and Urumqi is tantamount to opening an air corridor that can bring the people of the two neighboring states closer," Sayam Pasarlai, the head of the public relations office of the Afghan Chamber of Commerce and Industries nike air max 97 silver bullet homme , told Xinhua recently.
The official was also of the view that just one flight per week is not enough, adding that encouraging more Afghan and Chinese airline companies to link more cities would further boost trade and economic cooperation between the two nations.
China has invested in several sectors in Afghanistan and flights between Kabul and Urumqi would give further momentum to trade and economic cooperation between the two sides, Pasarlai said.
He also added that Afghan businesspeople in the past, if they wanted to visit China, would have to go via Dubai, New Delhi or even Tu.
