"Over the past two decades, China has been the locomotive of global economic growth. Its economic growth has significantly boosted the global economy. During the past two decades, what has impressed me most in terms of China's development is its robust infrastructure, the growth of its financial sector, and its contributions to boosting the growth of developing countries, especially the economies of the Global South. Additionally, China's development has propelled its enterprises, especially the private and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to go globally.

China's efforts in supporting regional development and prosperity prioritize the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries, alongside its respect for local social realities and customs. This has won support and recognition from the Global South countries and has yielded positive results.

China shall leverage its vision for an Asia-Pacific community with a shared future to promote development and unity among Asia-Pacific nations."
