The second legal officials' forum under the framework of Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) opened in Beijing Thursday.

At the opening ceremony, Han Zhubin, president of the China Law Society, proposed the two sides strengthen law-related exchanges, expand cooperation fields, enhance the role of laws and enrich the forum with more content.

Han expressed the hope that law societies of the two sides will strengthen mutual trust and understanding, and give full play to laws in promoting people's livelihood and regional cooperation.

The first legal officials' forum took place in the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh last November.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the FOCAC, a platform established in 2000.
