A reporter asked: This year in March, China held in succession the 2026 annual meeting of the China Development Forum and the 2026 annual meeting of the Boao Forum for Asia. The media has paid close attention, believing that the two forums are important windows for observing the Chinese market. What comments does the spokesperson have on this? Mao Ning said that the China Development Forum and the Boao Forum for Asia were held in sequence in Beijing and Hainan. The two forums conveyed the same message: the world is in turmoil, but China will always move forward steadily, and develop together with countries around the world. The outline of China’s “15th Five-Year Plan” for 2025–2030 demonstrates clear strategic objectives and policy direction, and sets out the main goals and major tasks for national development over the next five years. China will fully, accurately, and comprehensively implement the new development philosophy, accelerate the building of a new development pattern, and focus on promoting high-quality development. China will uphold free trade, continuously deepen international cooperation, steadily expand institutional-level opening-up, and jointly build the “Belt and Road” with high quality, promoting the global trade and investment liberalization and facilitation, and safeguarding and developing an open world economy. China will always be a solid foundation for global development and a stable harbor for it. (CCTV News)
