As he watched the Chinese and Bur-kinabe flags being raised in the early ming at the Rice Culture Center in Ouagadougou, capital of Burkina Faso, Liang Xiaoping was deeply moved.rnI am really proud to witness the friend-ship between our two countries, said Liang, adding however that this pride comes with a heavy responsibility. And for good rea-son: As the head of the Chinese agricultural mission to Burkina Faso, the 53-year-old agricultural expert will have to ensure that his team can meet the high expectations of their Burkinabe partners. It is a difficult challenge even for an old Africa hand like him, who has a rich experience of work-ing in agricultural cooperation programs on the continent.
