Hajri is also the head of Green Line Environmental Group, which gathers a group of Kuwaiti activists to save the society from pollution.
He said that China's efforts to embrace global environmental events stem from its keenness on achieving environmental successes which are positively reflected on the environment and health of Chinese society.
Kuwait can benefit from China's experience in dealing with some of the environmental ramifications, he said, adding that "China is characterized by two things: research and technology."
"These are the most important things that Kuwait and the Arab region need the most to overcome the environmental problems and difficulties," he stressed.
"In order to activate the Chinese-Arab environmental cooperation, we could establish a regional Chinese environmental center through which research and technology will be provided," Hajri added.
According to Hajri, Kuwait suffers from poor environmental management, waste treatment and air pollution.
He noted that such situation needs assistance from friendly countries such as China, especially to face the ramifications of environment and oil industry in the major projects that are expected to be implemented under Kuwait Vision 2035.
Kuwait Vision 2035 is a national development plan designed to introduce a change in Kuwait's oil-reliant economic structure and transform the oil-rich Gulf state into a trade and financial hub by 2035.
Hajri praised China's role in promoting eco-economy for sustainable livelihoods, saying that "we are all aware of China's eco-green epic in order to reduce the pollution of some factories."
The expert added that there are also "the greening and planting projects to address the problem of air and overcome dust storms as well as desertification in some parts of China."
The event, the second of its kind since the first of such expo was held in 1999 in the southwestern city of Kunming, will run from April 29 to Oct. 7 in Beijing to exhibit flower, fruit and vegetable farming at the foot of the Great Wall in the capital's Yanqing District.
It will bring together participants from more than 110 countries and international organizations as well as over 120 non-official exhibitors, opening a new chapter in the expo's history with the highest attendance. The exhibitors will present their latest achievements in the 503-hectare expo site.
