Tens of thousands of Zimbabweans have gathered in the National Sports Stadium where celebrations have taken place to mark the 38th anniversary of the country's Independence.


CRI's Gao Junya has the details from Harare.


The 60-thousand seat National Sports Stadium has been packed with people cheering, singing and dancing.


This is Zimbabwe's first Independence Day with new leader Emmerson Mnangagwa and under a new political landscape.


The theme of this year's celebrations is "Zimbabwe @38: Socio-Economic Restoration and International Re-engagement," feeding into the new government's commitment to getting the country back on track.


In his keynote speech delivered at the event, Mnangagwa said 38 years after Independence, Zimbabweans are embarking 1 on a new journey of nation building.


"Our 38 years of independence have not been without challenges. Mistakes have been made, opportunities have been missed. In recent years, progress has not been as smooth as we would have liked. But today, 38 years after we declared our Independence, and five months into our new Zimbabwe, we say Congratulations Zimbabwe! God Bless Zimbabwe."


Mangagwa said change will not come overnight, but he believes the nation will rise again with all Zimbabweans working together and moving forward.


"I call on all Zimbabweans, at home and abroad, to proudly celebrate the past, and boldly stride forward, arm in arm, towards a brighter future."


Mangagwa also spoke 2 of his recent state visit to China, paying tribute to China's support in helping 3 Zimbabwe revive its economy and boost development.


He suggests getting on board the Belt and Road Initiative unlocks tremendous potential for Zimbabwe.


"Significant too, is the convergence stemming out of China's Belt and Road Initiative which resonates with our vision for greater global trade, embedded 4 in our own heritage dating back to the Munhumutapa Empire. This coverage 5 offers us a window of unlimited 6 opportunities as we grow and develop our economy."


Local people participating in the celebrations are optimistic that the country has indeed entered a new era.


"It was something unique, something different from the past. A different environment, the people."


"The speech, it was not more of politics it was more of business."


The celebrations at the China-built venue 7 has also seen the attendance of many opposition 8 leaders, including Nelson Chamisa, leader of the main opposition party, Movement for Democratic Change.
