Full coverage: Xi Visits Ecuador, Peru and Chile, Attends APEC Summit

Some residents in the capital, Quito, told us what they think Xi's visit might mean for relations between Ecuador and China.

President Xi's visit is very important to us, because there will be a few agreements signed and this is the first time we meet such a high-level leader. I think China will bring more trade opportunities to Ecuador and Ecuador can offer everything we have.

China-Ecuador relations are currently in a smooth phase. The Chinese government has contributed large loans to help Ecuador's economic development. One example is the Sinclair Hydropower project.

Many Chinese have come here to teach Chinese language. We can also go to your country to learn about Chinese culture, and then tell our compatriots what we see when we come back.

I think Xi's visit is sending a message to the world, that a small country like us can grow active relations with big powers like China. These years have seen bilateral cooperation in areas such as social reform and development, energy. The visit also proves multi-polar perspective is needed when it comes to foreign affairs.
