Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao has left here for home on Saturday afternoon
at the end of his two-day official visit to Uganda.

China's Premier Wen Jiabao (L) and Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni
watch the honour guard on Wen's arrival at Entebbe international airport,
47 km (29 miles) southwest of Uganda's capital Kampala, June 23, 2006.

The two governments signed six agreements and issued a 10-point joint
communique on Friday after Wen Jiabao held talks with Ugandan President
Yoweri Museveni at the State House in Kampala.

The two sides agreed to keep high-level contacts to boost mutual
political trust, deepen business cooperation, strengthen coordination in
the multilateral arena and further develop the friendly relations and
cooperation between China and Uganda.

The Chinese premier extended an invitation from Chinese President Hu
Jintao to President Museveni to attend the Beijing Summit of the Forum on
China-Africa Cooperation due to be held later this year. President
Museveni accepted the invitation with pleasure.

Wen also held talks with Ugandan Prime Minister Apolo Nsibambi earlier in
the day, who held the departure ceremony at the Entebbe airport for Wen.

Uganda is the last leg of Wen's eight-day Africa tour starting from June
17. Wen visited Tanzania before he came to Uganda after touring Egypt,
Ghana, the Republic of the Congo, Angola and South Africa.
