CAIRO, May 21 (Xinhua) -- Cairo University of Egypt on Monday hailed cooperation with Chinese universities in various fields.
Earlier in the day, Cairo University Council approved a memorandum of understanding with the Shanghai International Studies University (SISU).

Abbas stressed that his university is keen to cooperate with more Chinese universities, stressing that Mohammed Othman, president of the university, traveled to China twice for this purpose.
"These memorandums will consolidate cooperation between universities in both countries," he said, adding that the memorandum will be followed by comprehensive agreements.
