SOUNDBITE 1 (English): KOH KING KEE, President of Center for New Inclusive Asia
"You can't live without China's market these days for any multinational or any company that claims itself to be a global player. China has also come out with this Global Development Initiative (GDI), an offer to help developing countries in terms of things like digital transformation, green development and also, it is important for China to play a role in this dynamic because no country is an 'island'."
