Experts are expressing the view that the Chinese Premier's proposal on China-ASEAN cooperation will help the region find more opportunities for future growth. Chinese Premier Li Keqiang has proposed the integration of the "One Belt and One Road” initiative with the regional strategic plans of ASEAN countries. Wei Ling is the director of the Asian Affairs Institution of China Foreign Affairs University. She believes the proposal offers a good growth opportunity for countries in the region. "Interconnectivity and regional integration among ASEAN countries will play a central role in promoting its strategic development. The idea of “One Belt and One Road" that has been raised by China will not only benefit China itself but all the countries along the way, which will also be a great opportunity for ASEAN's future development." Wei believes that China's 13th five-year-plan will also help boost economic development of the region. "So I think pursuing sustainable development which puts security as a precondition should be a consensus between China and other ASEAN countries. China's next five-year-plan, which highlights sustainable development, will provide a driving force for ASEAN's development." The comment came after Chinese premier Li Keqiang put forward a six-point proposal during the ASEAN-China leaders' meeting in Malaysia. |
