Distinguished guests， Ladies and gentlemen，

On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the restoration of the lawful seat of the People’s Republic of China at the United Nations， it is my pleasure， on behalf of the China International Development Cooperation Agency and Chairman Luo Zhaohui，  to attend the symposium of “China and the United Nations： 50 Years and Beyond”。

Please allow me to extend my warm congratulations on the opening of the symposium。 My sincere thanks also go to our hosts， UN in China and the CCG， for your  thoughtful arrangements。

Ladies and gentlemen，

Fifty years ago， the People’s Republic of China and the United Nations joined hands and opened a new era in our relations。 Over the past 50 years， China has faithfully followed the purposes and principles of the UN Charter， and has become an important builder of world peace， a contributor to global development， and a defender of the international order。

In promoting the noble cause of global sustainable development， China and the United Nations have walked hand in hand， becoming important partners。

China spares no effort

to realize

the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

We have actively implemented the new philosophy of innovative， coordinated， green， open and shared development， historically solved the problem of absolute poverty， and built the largest social security and compulsory education system in the world。 We have taken the lead in both pandemic prevention and control， and economic recovery， becoming the only major economy that have achieved positive economic growth last year。 China‘s success has set a model for global poverty eradication， pandemic response and sustainable development， and has enhanced the confidence and strength of developing countries。

China actively leads

the

global governance

on

international development cooperation.

President Xi Jinping recently proposed the “Global Development Initiative”，calling for adhering to the concept of “prioritizing development and being people-centered”， promoting global development to a new stage of balance， coordination and inclusiveness， and providing China’s solutions to the world at the crossroads of history。 The Initiative is open to the world， and we welcome the participation of all parties。

China

actively promote

s

the

common development of the world.

We formed accurate synergy between foreign aid and other countries’ development strategies， provided them with timely assistance， shared our development experiences， and without any political conditions。 We actively promoted the joint construction of high-quality “Belt and Road Initiative”，  building the widest and largest international cooperation platform in the world‘s， and advanced against the impact of COVID-19。 We have provided foreign assistance to more than 160 developing countries， implemented thousands of complete and material assistance projects， ten thousands of technical and human resources cooperation projects， and have trained about 400，000 personnel of all kinds in developing countries。

China

actively respond

s

to global humanitarian challenges.

We have never been absent from global humanitarian crises such as to public health， natural disasters， or refugee and migration crises。 Following the outbreak of COVID-19， we launched the largest emergency humanitarian operation since the founding of the People’s Republic， have provided anti-pandemic material assistance to 150 countries and 13 international organizations， and have sent 37 medical expert teams to 34 countries。 This year， we have been actively implementing the solemn commitment by President Xi Jinping to make China’s vaccine a global public product， providing over 1。6 billion doses of vaccine to more than 100 countries and  international organizations， and playing a crucial role in the global cooperation against the pandemic。

China

actively advocate

s

multilateral cooperation.

We have established the South-South Cooperation Assistance Fund， cooperated with more than 10 agencies of the United Nations， and implemented more than 100 livelihood projects in over 50 countries to the benefit of more than 20 million people。 We have set up the Institute of South-South Cooperation and Development to share our development experience and build a platform for research and exchange。 We have established the China-UN Peace and Development Fund， providing support to more than 100 developing countries。 Recently， China has successfully sponsored COP15 and the second United Nations Global Sustainable Transport Conference。

Ladies and gentlemen，

The world today is under the combined impacts of the pandemic and world-wide changes， both unseen in a century。 We are facing challenges that emerge one after another。 Implementing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is the core task for current international development cooperation。

As the most universal， representative and authoritative inter-governmental international organization， the United Nations should hold high the banner of true multilateralism， and become the core platform for all countries to jointly safeguard universal security， share development achievements， and jointly grasp the destiny of the world。

China will work closely together with the United Nations to meet challenges and advance the cause of human development。

We will fully support international cooperation in fighting the pandemic.

We will continue to provide vaccines and necessary anti-pandemic supplies to countries in urgent need， continue to carry out medical and technical cooperation， help developing countries better their public health systems， improve the level of international public health， and provide support for recipient countries to accelerate their economic and social recovery。

We will continue to implement the goal of green development.

We will engage in in-depth cooperation projects to deal with climate change， increase support for clean energy projects such as hydropower， photovoltaic and wind energy， share green development experience， and jointly construct the “Silk Road of Green Development”。 We will assist recipient countries in building a resource-saving and environment-friendly society and constructing a community of shared future for mankind and nature。

We will actively support global economic recovery.

We will continue to pay close attention to the fundamental human rights of survival and development in all countries， focus on the array of livelihood issues such as poverty， unemployment， hunger， health and education， constantly increase the supply of global public products， and actively ensure the safety and stability of industrial chain and supply chain。

We will continue to optimize global

develop

ment

governance.

We will actively participate in dialog and cooperation in the field of development， strengthen exchanges and mutual learning between China and various assistance providers， increase support for international organizations， help developing countries remove developmental bottlenecks， and make new contributions to building a community of shared future for mankind。

China’s foreign aid and international development cooperation will continue to play an important role in the promotion of the common development of the world。 Guided by the  Xi Jinping  Thought on Diplomacy， our mission will be  the construction of a community of shared future for mankind。 Our principle will be the the right approach to justice and interests。 We will take into account both bilateral and multilateral assistance， and combine hard aid with soft aid， so as to build an all-round and multi-dimensional pattern of foreign aid。

We will continue to strengthen our exchange and cooperation with the traditional donors， the United Nations and other international organizations， while also actively explore triangular cooperation。 We will strengthen the whole-chain supervision， prevent corruption， improve quality， enhance evaluation， thereby ensuring the sustainable development of projects。 We will continue to release， through different channels， the information and data on China’s foreign aid timely to improve transparency。

Ladies and gentlemen，

Regardless of international changing circumstances， China will always remain a staunch supporter of the United Nations and multilateralism， a staunch promoter of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development， and a staunch practitioner of the cause of international development cooperation。

We firmly believe that the multilateral system centered on the United Nations will be strengthened at a higher level， in a wider scope and across a wider field， and that greater glory will be achieved in the undertaking of the development and progress of mankind。

Thank you！

More Information

The internationalization of Chinese enterprises is one of the most notable aspects of economic globalization in the 21st century。 Despite the 2008 financial crisis and weak global outbound investment， under the “go global“ initiative， Chinese outbound investment has gone from strength to strength， while also diversifying in terms of investment modalities， destinations， and industries。 However， growing anti-globalization sentiment in some countries has also created new challenges for Chinese firms expanding internationally。

Drawing on nearly 3000 data samples， using both quantitative and qualitative research methods， this book presents unique insights into the features and patterns of Chinese enterprises’ globalization。 The analysis provides a useful reference for enterprises that have already gone global and those that plan to。 In particular， this book investigates challenges confronted by Chinese companies when doing business in foreign countries。 It summarizes research covering three angles， namely： the current situation， causation analysis and corresponding solutions， and recommendations for firms， government agencies and other institutions。

This book provides a comprehensive overview to help readers to grasp the broad picture of the international expansion of Chinese enterprises。 It has important reference value for enterprises to help devise foreign investment strategy， seize opportunities， and navigate challenges in the course of globalization。

More Information

This book offers the most comprehensive， up-to-date assessment of China’s domestic and international migration。 Restructuring economic development requires large numbers of educated and skilled talents， but this effort comes at a time when the size of China’s domestic workforce is shrinking。 In response， both national and regional governments in China have been keen to encourage overseas Chinese talents and professionals to return to the country。 Meanwhile， the Chinese government has initiated a number of policies to attract international highly-skilled talents and enhance the country’s competitiveness， and some Chinese policies have started attracting foreign talents， who are coming to the country to work， and even to stay。 Since Chinese policies， mechanisms， and administration efforts to attract and retain skilled domestic or overseas talents are helping to reshape China’s economy and are significantly affecting the cooperation on migration and talent mobility， these aspects， in addition to being of scholarly and research interest， hold considerable commercial potential。
