2021-11-22

The summit commemorating the 30th anniversary of the establishment of China ASEAN dialogue relations will be held on the 22nd. Since the establishment of dialogue relations in 1991, China and ASEAN, which are connected by mountains and rivers and close by blood, have focused on common development and promoting win-win cooperation. Now they have become the most successful and dynamic model of regional cooperation. Analysts believe that the summit will become an important milestone connecting the past and the future, promote the quality and upgrading of bilateral relations, create an opportunity for building a closer China ASEAN Community of common destiny and inject new impetus into regional cooperation. Mutually beneficial cooperation and common development benefit 2 billion people Over the past 30 years, China ASEAN relations have been constantly upgraded, from consultation partners and comprehensive dialogue partners to "partnership of good neighborliness and mutual trust oriented to the 21st century" and then to "strategic partnership oriented to peace and prosperity". China is the first major country to accede to the Treaty of friendship and cooperation in Southeast Asia and establish a strategic partnership with ASEAN. It is also the first major economy to establish a free trade area with ASEAN. In 2020, the two sides are each other's largest trading partners, and the scale of bilateral trade has expanded 85 times in the past 30 years. This series of "first" and constantly refreshing records is not an abstract number, but a real "sense of gain" of 2 billion people in 11 countries. Kunming, Yunnan, and Vientiane, the capital of Laos, are more than 1000 kilometers old fellow. Lao people hope that this railway can attract more investment, promote tourism and logistics development, and help Laos get rid of the traffic shackles of landlocked countries. In Thailand, Haomai group, a Chinese automobile tire mold manufacturer, has been building factories in Thailand China Luoyong industrial park with increasing orders. In 2020, the amount of factory orders will reach 200 million yuan, 80% of the products will be exported to Europe and the United States, and 20% will be supplied locally. During the COVID-19, the factory is still operating efficiently, and two workers rotate to meet the needs of customers. In Cambodia, the Sihanouk port special economic zone jointly developed and constructed by Chinese and Cambodian enterprises totaled US $1.767 billion from January to October this year, a year-on-year increase of nearly 40%. Ah Qing, a Cambodian girl who once worked in Phnom Penh and earned more than $100 a month, has worked here for seven years. She can not only speak fluent Chinese, her salary has doubled several times, but also become a local management talent of a Chinese textile enterprise. Pasipan, chairman of the Cambodian government spokesman agency, told reporters that from road and bridge construction to energy development, from the construction of special zones to poverty alleviation, the fields of cooperation between China and ASEAN have been expanding, which not only brings more development opportunities to local enterprises, but also brings a better life to the people. Help each other and build a community of human health China and ASEAN countries are linked by mountains and rivers or across the sea. They depend on each other and have feelings. Facing China novel coronavirus pneumonia, China and ASEAN have been stuck together, and have been working closely together to build a healthy community of human health. At the most difficult moment in China's fight against the epidemic, ASEAN countries quickly donated money and materials to cheer for China. When the epidemic situation rebounded in ASEAN countries, China reciprocated and took positive action. It not only provided more than 360 million doses of vaccine and a large number of anti epidemic materials to the 10 ASEAN countries, but also sent a number of anti epidemic medical expert groups. ASEAN Secretary General Lin Yuhui said that the positive results achieved by the two sides in fighting the epidemic together are an epitome of the friendly cooperation between China and ASEAN. ASEAN thanks China for its anti epidemic support, especially vaccine assistance. Deng Xijun, Chinese ambassador to ASEAN, said that China will continue to give priority to providing ASEAN with sufficient vaccines and anti epidemic materials, strengthen cooperation in vaccines and specific drugs, support ASEAN to accelerate the construction of regional vaccine production and distribution centers, and help ASEAN strengthen public health emergency capacity-building. In Phnom Penh, Cambodia, in November, there was a continuous flow of vehicles on the streets, and the market has resumed its previous busy. People's eyes revealed their confidence and hope to get rid of the shadow of the epidemic. With the help of China's vaccine, the vaccination rate in Cambodia has been close to 90%, which has added confidence to restore economic and social life. Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen said that China's provision of vaccines to Cambodia and other countries is another example of China's use of vaccines as a public product and its global leadership. China's vaccine is the "key" to maintaining public health and saving people's lives. Join hands to create a better future for regional development Over the past 30 years, China and ASEAN have become each other's largest trading partners, the most dynamic partners and the most meaningful strategic partners. One belt, one road, is to further release the potential of cooperation and build the regional comprehensive economic partnership agreement (RCEP) as a starting point to promote regional inclusive and peaceful development and benefit the region and the people. Azmi Hassan, an independent political observer in Malaysia, said that China is a model for successfully controlling the epidemic and comprehensively restoring economic development. ASEAN countries expect China to inject impetus into their economic recovery. Jin Ping, director of the Institute of international relations of the Royal Cambodian Academy of Sciences, said that over the past 30 years, China and ASEAN have worked hand in hand and achieved fruitful results in cooperation. Both sides are important driving forces for free trade and multilateralism and have made important contributions to enhancing mutual understanding and trust in the region and maintaining peace and stability. Looking forward to the future, China and ASEAN will continue to firmly work together to build a community of common destiny and create a harmonious environment for the common development of mankind. Hong Feng, chairman of Siam think tank in Thailand, believes that China and ASEAN will become the driving force for the peaceful development of Asia and even the world, and make positive contributions to the stability and prosperity of the Asia Pacific region and the world. Yu miaojie, vice president of the National Development Research Institute of Peking University, believes that China and ASEAN have strong economic complementarity, diversified bilateral trade and close industrial chain relations. In the context of more complex and changeable global economic and trade relations, deeper economic and trade cooperation between China and ASEAN, especially the implementation of RCEP, will play an important role in reconstructing the value chain, promoting economic integration in East Asia and forming a regional cycle. Join hands for 30 years and set sail for a new journey. The giant ship of friendly cooperation between China and ASEAN will ride the wind and waves and sail towards a bright future of common development. (outlook new era)
