Spokesperson's Remarks｜China will join hands with other Asian countries to seek win-win results

As an important member of the big Asian family and the host country of the Boao Forum for Asia, China will stay committed to promoting high-quality development and high-standard opening up, joining hands with other Asian countries to tackle development challenges with solidarity and seek win-win results through cooperation, and making new contribution to global growth, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said at a regular press conference in Beijing on Wednesday.

 

Boao Forum for Asia Annual Meeting 2025 has just kicked off. The Asian Economic Outlook and Integration Progress Annual Report 2025 was released at the forum. The report estimates that Asia's economy will grow by 4.5 percent in 2025, with its share rising to 48.6 percent among the world's economic output measured by purchasing power parity. Secretary General of Boao Forum for Asia noted that "the world has every reason to be hopeful about Asia's future".  

"I also noted the report." Guo said. 

Guo noted that Asia is the most populous region globally and has the most vibrant economy with strong resilience of economies in the region. Asia is at the forefront of the world in such aspects as economic growth, trade in goods and services and regional economic integration, and has become an important driving force and stabilizer for global economic growth.

"As the global economy faces rising instability and uncertainty, the international community is following what path Asia chooses and calling for solutions Asia could offer. We hope that participating parties at this year's Boao Forum for Asia could have in-depth exchanges and discussion, grasp the overriding trend of universally beneficial and inclusive economic globalization, work for early conclusion and implementation of the China-ASEAN Free Trade Area 3.0, and explore new sustainable driving forces, such as digital economy and green economy."
