Earlier, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina arrived at the Kunming Wujiaba International Airport at 11:20am local time, for the final leg of her five-day visit to China.
Another report says: Prime Minister Sheikh Hasima returns home on Sunday after a five-day state visit to China.

During her visit Sheikh Hasina met with Chinese President Hu Jintao and discussed bilateral, regional and international issues. She had official talks with her Chinese counterpart Wen Jiaboa at the Great Hall and signed three accords and a MoU to bolster cooperation in the fields of economy and technology, infrastructure and energy. The agreements were signed after formal talks between the two prime ministers.
The agreements are: Economic and Technical Cooperation with Adequate Grant, Framework for Construction of Shahjalal Fertiliser Factory, Construction of the 7th Bangladesh-China Friendship Bridge and a MOU on Bangladesh-China Cooperation in Oil and Gas sectors. Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao at the official talks on Thursday assured Sheikh Hasina of duty-free access of Bangladesh products to the Chinese market to reduce the yawning trade gap and to raise financial-technical cooperation for achieving the development targets of Bangladesh.
At a luncheon meeting Hasina also sought Chinese cooperation to construct a Deep Seaport in Chittagong and establish road link between Chittagong and Kunming.
She visited Beijing Olympic Games Stadium "Bird's Nest", the world's largest steel structure built at a cost of US$ 423 million.
The two countries have decided to establish a "Closer Comprehensive Partnership of Cooperation" from the strategic perspective and on the basis of the principles of longstanding friendship, equality, and mutual benefit.
A joint statement, issued on Friday after Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's talks with Chinese President Hu Jintao and Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao, said the leaders of the two countries had an in-depth exchange of opinion and reached agreement on newer directions for taking China-Bangladesh relations forward.
At the last leg of her visit to China, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Saturday flew to Kunming in Yunan province.
