He added that Kiu, a Kenyan drama series which premiered on StarTimes Rembo Tv on December 12, 2022, is already getting legion of followings in China as the Chinese are very much interested in learning the Kenyan culture.
While presiding over the establishment of the club, Tourism, Wildlife and Heritage Cabinet Secretary Peninah Malonza said: "The launch of the Club of Sino-Africa Culture and Tourism is significant in that it marks the first event to celebrate 60 years of close friendship between China and Kenya.
"The club will serve as an important touchpoint of convergence in building understanding and appreciation of the rich culture of the Chinese and Kenyans.
"The success of this club will inspire increased exchanges and engagement by people of Kenya and China especially in tourism and business spheres."
The Tourism Ministry on Wednesday supported the Kenya Ice Hockey League Friendship Tournament that was held at the Panari Hotel in Nairobi.
The tournament attracted prolific players from Kenya, Japan, USA and Canada who also took time to tour the country apart from taking part in the adrenaline filled contest.
The Ministry has pledged to help the Kenya Federation of Ice Sports to set up an Olympic size ice rink to help develop the rare sport in the country.
