Hon. Samuel Dusengiyumva, Mayor of Kigali, and Hon. Christine Nkulikiyinka, Minister of Public Service and Labour, were present.
Ambassador Gao noted that the Car-Free Day is an innovative initiative to promote healthy lifestyles and environmental protection. The Embassy will continue to participate in and support the events.
