China wants mutual trust and benefit

Q: Asia, as a whole, is now on an upward trajectory with a higher standing and greater voice and influence in major international issues. How does China coordinate and cooperate with other Asian countries on major global issues?
A: China has highlighted major global issues such as reform of the international system, climate change, energy, food security and sustainable development. Vibrant bilateral and multilateral cooperation on such issues has become a most promising new growth area in international cooperation. Since China, India, Indonesia and other emerging countries in Asia now have a more important role to play, the international community pays closer attention to Asian nations' stance on global issues. China and many Asian countries, which are in similar situations and share the fundamental interests, have engaged in multifaceted coordination and cooperation to address global issues together.
We have reached out to the ROK, India, Indonesia and other Asian members of G20 to coordinate positions to jointly facilitate reform of the international financial system, enhance institutional power of emerging markets and developing countries in such international governance mechanisms as the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, and to actively support the ROK in hosting the G20 Seoul Summit.
We have established a climate change partnership with India to increase dialogue and cooperation at international climate negotiations in a joint endeavor to safeguard the rights and interests of developing countries. We have identified new cooperation areas in circular economy and sustainable development with Japan, the ROK and Singapore.
Construction has started on the Sino-Singaporean Tianjin Eco-City. China is discussing with Japan and the ROK the possibility of building a China-Japan-ROK circular economy demonstration base. We have enhanced cooperation with ASEAN member states on agriculture and food production to ensure food security and boost rural development. We have also established mechanisms such as energy cooperation forum with some Asian countries to explore cooperation on energy security, higher energy efficiency and new energy development technology.
Global efforts are needed to resolve global issues. China will continue to step up coordination and cooperation with other Asian countries to jointly help resolve global issues for the benefit of mankind and safeguard and advance the common interests of Asian countries.
