MAPUTO, Sept.25 (Xinhua) -- Mozambican Finance Minister Adriano Maleiane said on Tuesday that investment from China in various sectors accords with the country's development strategy, and has had a positive impact on improving Mozambicans' life.
The minister made the remarks at a reception held by the Chinese embassy, which celebrated the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, in Maputo.
