During spring festival, an Indian marine engineer, Navneet Kumar Bakshi and his wife took a train from Nanjing of Jiangsu Province to Xiamen of Fujian Province. Some of his friends from all over China came to Xiamen and enjoyed this very rare Sino-Indo friendship given the complicated political conflicts.
A small self-introduction of Navneet, quoted from his own blog.

Born at Amritsar in 1952,attended school at Simla and Engg. from PEC Chandigarh. Marine Engr. by profession. Sailed for 31 Yrs. Did shore based assignments at Singapore,Greece, America and Panama. Lived in China for 4 years, working in Ship building industry.I was deeply impressed by progress,order, cleanliness and beauty of China and I decided to tell the world about it. Sulekha's reach gave me a vast exposure.Today, I have hundreds of fans all across China. My blogs are translated in Chinese and read by thousands in China. One website 三泰虎 - 从这里了解印度人对中国的看法 has made a separate Tab for accessing my blogs. I have recently launched my website BLOG for providing a window for business and interaction with the Chinese.I write prose mostly in English and poetry in Hindi, English and Punjabi. I have published three books of Hindi poetry. A book in English “Memoirs of a Sailor” is ready. A Chinese publisher plans to publish a book based on my blogs by the next Chinese New Year.
Mr. Bakshi is the most open-minded Indian I have ever encountered. I guess it has something to do with his jobs around the world. He is also an authentic patriot as opposed to a conceited and ignorant ultra-nationalist. We have a friendly QQ chatting group (317761915) where Mr.Bakshi and his friends discuss about literally everything in a peaceful atmosphere. He has received tons of lettres, from tropical Hainan to subzero Harbin, which depict their life and their hometown. I myself emailed him my previous Yunnan adventures and he literarily beautified pale words of my own and made these travelogues into delicate essays.

Mr. and Mrs Bakshi arrived in Xiamen one day before New Year Eve of 2015. Mr.Xu, one of his followers and currently working in Xiamen, companied them and welcomed them in his family New Year Eve dinner. On the first day of lunar new year, I took a train from my hometown Wuhan to Xiamen and some traveled from the interior of China to this costal city. On the third day of Lunar January, all his friends in Xiamen had a huge gathering, making dumplings, exchanging ideas and having excursions.
In the following, I will try my utmost to record this gathering and also Mr.Xu's experiences during his 2-year job in Xiamen and mountainous regions in the interior of Fujian Province.
