On 13 June, a delegation from the National University of Timor-Leste (UNTL), led by Rector Joviano António da Costa and Vice-Rector Cristóvão dos Reis, visited South China Normal University (SCNU). Wang Hengyin, Secretary of the CPC Committee of SCNU, and Vice President Wang Chunchao met with the delegation.

On behalf of SCNU, Wang Hengyin extended a warm welcome to the delegation. He reviewed the history of friendly cooperation between the two institutions and outlined the university’s recent achievements in education and research. He noted that the SCNU Center for Timor-Leste Studies (CTLS) is the only Ministry of Education (MOE)-designated country and regional studies center in China dedicated to Timor-Leste, and that a series of tangible cooperation outcomes achieved by both institutions have laid a solid foundation for in-depth exchanges between SCNU and UNTL.

Wang Chunchao stated that the Belt and Road Joint Laboratory for Optical Science and Smart Education, jointly established by SCNU and UNTL, has received strong support from all sectors of Timor-Leste. He expressed his hope that the two universities would build this joint laboratory into a flagship project for Belt and Road higher education cooperation.

António da Costa Rovião expressed his hope to further deepen regularized cooperation between the two universities in areas including academic research, talent development and scientific innovation.

At the meeting, Zhou Guofu, Director of both the South China Academy of Advanced Optoelectronics and the Joint Laboratory, gave a detailed briefing on the laboratory’s construction progress and future plans. Ma Zaoming, Director of CTLS, presented a systematic overview of the center’s development trajectory and research accomplishments. The two sides held in-depth discussions on core priorities, namely the upgrading of the joint laboratory, joint research initiatives, collaborative talent development, faculty and student exchange programs, and academic resource sharing.


Following the meeting, the delegation visited the School of Education, the School of Psychology and the School of Life Sciences, where they were briefed on each school's disciplinary development, laboratory operation and management, and teaching and research achievements.
