Time is rolled back to the turn of autumn and winter in 2014.
Drinking wine belongs to guests, reciting poems about mountains and rivers, and singing chapters about swan geese.
In his speech at the APEC welcoming banquet in Beijing, President Xi Jinping used water as a metaphor to outline the long-term development vision of the Asia-Pacific.
President Xi Jinping stressed that APEC is bound by the waters of the Pacific Ocean, and we have the responsibility to make the Pacific Ocean an ocean of peace, an ocean of friendship and an ocean of cooperation, witnessing peace, development, prosperity, and progress in the Asia-Pacific region.
Standing at the forefront of the times, the heart is concerned about the future of mankind. Simply put, the words are full and the meaning is infinite.
Looking around us, the world economy is just like the Pacific Ocean around us: it collects thousands of waterways and connects the four seas, it is vast and turbulent.
The Asia-Pacific region accounts for one-third of the world’s population, more than 60% of the world’s total economic output and nearly half of the total volume of trade, and is the most dynamically growing region of the global economy. Over the past 30 years since the establishment of APEC, the endless and vast Pacific Ocean has witnessed the “Asia-Pacific miracle” created by all members working together in the same boat.
Underlying it, the “Pacific Ocean” proposed by President Xi Jinping is the premise and foundation for the common development of all members of the Asia-Pacific; the means and starting points for the prosperity and development of the members of the Asia-Pacific region.
At present, the COVID-19 epidemic has been repeatedly delayed, the downward pressure on the world economy has increased, and the risk of recession has increased, posing a serious challenge to Asia-Pacific peace and development. Eight years later, when the world was once again at a crossroads, President Xi Jinping again gave China’s response.
Comparison of the fields cannot solve the problems, and prejudice will only bring disaster. We must follow the path of peaceful development; openness brings progress and isolation will inevitably lag behind. We must take the path of openness and tolerance; currently, the Asia-Pacific economy has entered a critical stage of post-epidemic recovery. All economies are generally facing difficulties such as supply chain turmoil, food and energy shortages, and rising inflationary pressures. We must strengthen cooperation, support and help each other, and take the road of solidarity measures
The road is blocked and long, but the journey is approaching. As long as we persevere, we will surely reach our destination.
From the “Ocean of Peace, Ocean of Friendship and Ocean of Cooperation” proposed by President Xi Jinping to the “road of peaceful development, the road of openness and inclusion, and the road of solidarity and solidarity”, China has always promoted the construction of an open economic structure of Asia-Pacific and continuously deepened mutual trust and tolerance. , cooperation and win-win Asia-Pacific partnership.
This year marks the 31st anniversary of China’s accession to APEC. 31 years is the 31 years of the deepening of China’s expanding reform and opening up, and it is also the 31 years of the deepening of Asia-Pacific economic cooperation. Over the past 31 years, China has always been the promoter and practitioner of Asia-Pacific open cooperation.
The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China stressed that China adheres to the national basic policy of opening to the outside world, steadfastly pursues a mutually beneficial and win-win strategy of opening up, and continues to provide new opportunities for the world with the new development of China.
Advancing on the road of Chinese-style modernization, China will surely bring more development opportunities and driving force to the entire Asia-Pacific region and the world!
