Asia will contribute to 75 percent of global growth in 2023 while the region also produces half of the world's carbon dioxide emissions.
I expect that these regulators will highlight the role of data analysis and the development of new forward-looking metrics for banks to assess the progress of the green transition. Secondly, there are troubling signs today of a retreat from multilateralism as protectionism, nationalism and inward-looking policies are on the rise in many countries. Many of these global institutions have made net-zero commitments of their own during the 26th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties in Glasgow in 2021. As the world's largest emitter of carbon, this leadership role of China in the global transition to net zero is indeed critical. It is therefore not surprising that the Boao Forum agenda has climate action and energy transition in particular, as one of the most preeminent topics on the agenda. In the face of these unprecedented global challenges, Asia is emerging as a growth engine of the world economy.

He will also meet Mr Li again on Saturday, when the two are expected to discuss more areas of cooperation and taking the bilateral relationship to the next level. He also called for Asia to always remain an open region and nurture ties with the US, Europe, and other parts of the world. “They should be managed in the spirit of goodwill and cooperation, peacefully and in accordance with international law, giving full weight to the perspectives and interests of all countries big and small.” Calling for the region to strengthen its ties with China at the same time, PM Lee said that economic cooperation between China and its Asian neighbours will be stronger if it is underpinned by a stable, broader relationship which will encourage mutual trust. “But collectively, the different groupings build a resilient and interlocking network of cooperation among countries in Asia.

“This is a strategy-driven budget — and one driven by the seriousness of our strategic competition with the People’s Republic of China,” Austin told the US House of Representations Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense. CONFLICTING ACCOUNTS: The US destroyer’s routine operations in the South China Sea would have ‘serious consequences,’ the defense ministry said China yesterday threatened “serious consequences” after the US Navy sailed a destroyer around the disputed Paracel Islands (Xisha Islands, 西沙群島) in the South China Sea for the second day in a row, in a move Beijing claimed was a breach of its sovereignty and security.

The BFA is also a window to observe the trend of history. With the rise of China's economic size and international influence, the certainty provided by China is becoming increasingly significant and valuable to the world. Washington is the source for the uncertainty and the biggest uncertainty in the economy is triggered by politics. For instance, despite the US' vigorous efforts over the past two years to sow discord in the Asia-Pacific region and even the world, attempting to build a wall of isolation around China, the international mainstream society, particularly the majority of Asian countries, do not agree with this approach. Over 1,500 representatives from political, business, and think tank circles from more than 50 countries and regions have engaged in extensive discussions on various specific topics related to the main theme of the forum. In this regard, the BFA has once again provided Oriental wisdom to the world.
