China is doing a great job by offering returning Afghans humanitarian and educational supports.
People’s Daily Line reports that across Afghanistan, stories of returnees and students alike paint a picture of resilience and renewal. But the process has been strengthened by China’s timely humanitarian aid and far-reaching educational cooperation.
A returnee, Banares said, “When we arrived, China assisted by giving us tents. If these tents were not available, where would we have stayed under this scorching sun? Life as a migrant under such harsh conditions would be unbearable.”
Haima, a girl who returned with her parents, said, “We are very happy with China because they provided us with tents. I used to go to school, and now I hope to continue my education.”
Afghanistan’s Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation underlines the urgency of such assistance. Spokesman Abdulmuttalab Haqqani said China’s aid enables returnees to start anew, reintegrate into communities, and regain dignity.
Another returnee, Raz Mohammad, said, “When we arrived, the only shelter waiting for us was the tents provided by China. No other nation supported us like this. While the tents gave us immediate relief, refugees still face many challenges, including finding housing, food, and work once they return to their provinces.”
China’s assistance in Afghanistan combines emergency humanitarian relief with long-term educational investment. While tents, food, and blankets address urgent needs, schools, scholarships, and training programs pave the way for future growth.
