Chinese State Councilor Liu Yandong urged Wednesday the creation of a favorable study environment for overseas students in China.
"Education for overseas students has been an important bridge for friendly exchange between Chinese people and foreigners. It is also a key window for the world to understand China," Liu said during an event celebrating the 60th anniversary of New China's hosting of overseas students.
China has received some 1.69 million students from 190 countries and regions.
Some 240,000 overseas students are currently studying in China.
Liu encouraged overseas students in China to study hard while cherishing their China experience and promoting friendship and cultural exchange with Chinese people.
Liu urged schools to boost education quality and innovate in teaching to create a sound study environment for overseas students.
