This year marks the 10th anniversary of the Belt and Road Initiative. In the past 10 years, the Belt and Road Initiative has become an important international public good, opening up a development path to common prosperity for all countries. At the sub-forum "The Belt and Road: Sharing Development Opportunities" held during the Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference, guests from all walks of life expressed their views on the progress and future development of the Belt and Road Initiative.

"For countries and regions along the Belt and Road, the infrastructure projects brought about by the Belt and Road are sustainable, providing local infrastructure related to health and education, and giving people a better environment for development." Kim said China made such a decision 10 years ago and was undoubtedly far-sighted.

Reynat Bekoturvov, president of the Astana International Financial Center, said that the impact of the joint construction of the "Belt and Road" on Kazakhstan is huge. Infrastructure connectivity brings not only transportation convenience, but also more business opportunities.

"The Belt and Road is a road of unity for common development, a win-win road of connectivity, and a great practice for benefiting people of all countries and coping with global challenges." Tan Jianghe, Chairman of RGE Singapore, said that in the past 10 years, RGE Group has given full play to the advantages of the industrial chain located along the "Belt and Road", and comprehensively deployed high-end paper, high-end fiber manufacturing, clean energy and other industries in China's Yangtze River Delta region and Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and gained a lot from it.

Speaking about the development prospects of the "Belt and Road", Zhong Baoshen, chairman of LONGi Green Energy Technology Co., Ltd., set his sights on "green and low-carbon transformation". "At present, the global energy production and consumption pattern is undergoing deep adjustment, and there is a long way to go to ensure energy security and promote energy transformation. China's clean and low-carbon progress is accelerating, and it can help countries and regions along the Belt and Road develop clean energy industries through technical support, capacity building and consulting services, and continue to inject green impetus into local development. Zhong Baoshen said.

According to PwC's 26th Global CEO Survey China Report released during the Annual Meeting, Chinese investment in countries along the Belt and Road rose to its highest level since 2019, with much of the growth coming from new EV battery production lines. According to the report, 52% of CEOs in Chinese mainland companies prioritize countries and regions along the Belt and Road as outbound investment destinations.

In the future, how to promote the high-quality development of the "Belt and Road" and continuously achieve new results? "It is necessary to further optimize the top-level design of the country, adjust and improve the financial support system, accelerate the construction of a large investment platform for the joint development of industry, finance and technology, and jointly promote the stable and long-term construction of the 'Belt and Road'." Song Hailiang, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of China Energy Construction Association, said that as a road of development, win-win and hope, the "Belt and Road" will surely gather broader consensus, open up broader space and achieve more brilliant achievements in the future.

China's development is inseparable from the world, and the world's prosperity also needs China. As we embark on a new journey, China unswervingly pursues an open strategy of mutual benefit and win-win results. A more open China will surely form a more benign interaction with the world and inject more certainty into an uncertain world.
