金奈的公路基础设施也许能受惠于中国的技术。周五，来自重庆的6人代表团，会见了里彭建筑公司的管理人员，就城市规划和公路项目方面提供帮助。

The meeting, faciliated by a translator, comes a year after Prime Minister Narendra Modi signed an agreement, in the presence of mayor Saidai S Duraisamy, for a Chennai and Chongqing sister-city relationship.

而这次碰面，距离莫迪总理为金奈和重庆建立姊妹城市关系而签署协议过去了一年，当时金奈市长也在现场。

The two cities are governed by vastly different political systems, but urban planners believe the tie-up could still be fruitful. “The Chinese are known for high quality roads and our engineers must learn that technology,” said former urban engineering professor K P Subramanian.

两个城市的政治制度是完全不同的，然而城市规划者认为这一合作仍然是富有成果的。“中国人修公路的质量是好到出名的，我们的工程师可以学习技术。”前城市工程教授Subramanian说。

“China was known for cycle traffic but that has shrunk now and they can learn from our non-motorised transport policy. This type of networking is good for the city,” he added.

“中国以环形交通而闻名，不过现在已经收缩了，他们可以学习我们的非机动交通政策。这种类型的网络对城市是有利的。”

Bilateral⁴ ties have been growing sturdier with China’s proposal to set up a consulate⁵ in the city. Apart from the Chennai metro⁶ rail project, China was also collaborating⁷ on developing a high speed rail link between Delhi and Chennai and on increasing speed of the Chennai-Mysuru rail line.

随着中国提议在金奈设立一座领事馆，双边关系也越来越牢固。除了金奈地铁项目，中国也在与印度合作修建一条连接德里至金奈的高铁，以及对金奈至迈索尔的铁路进行提速。

Hyderabad and Aurangabad are sister cities of Qingdao and Dunhuang, while Karnataka has provincial⁸ relations with the government of Sichuan through a sister-state pact⁹.

海德拉巴和奥兰加巴德，分别是青岛和敦煌的姊妹城市，而卡纳塔克邦和四川省建立了省级姊妹关系。

The sister city movement has grown in leaps and bounds from the time it was founded in 1956 by United States president Dwight D Eisenhower during a White House conference to enhance city-to-city relationships culturally and commercially.

自从美国总统艾森豪威尔于1956年在一次白宫会议上首次创立以来，姊妹城市关系运动取得了跳跃式发展。姊妹城市关系旨在加强城市之间在文化和商业上的关系。.
