女士们、先生们、朋友们！

 

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Dear Friends,

 

亚洲是世界的亚洲。亚洲要迈向命运共同体、开创亚洲新未来，必须在世界前进的步伐中前进、在世界发展的潮流中发展。

 

Asia belongs to the world. For Asia to move towards a community of common destiny and embrace a new future, it has to follow the world trend and seek progress and development in tandem with that of the world.

 

当前，国际形势继续发生深刻复杂变化，世界多极化、经济全球化深入发展，文化多样化、社会信息化持续推进，国际格局和国际秩序加速调整演变。世界各国正抓紧调整各自发展战略，推动变革创新，转变经济发展方式，调整经济结构，开拓新的发展空间。同时，世界经济仍处于深度调整期，低增长、低通胀、低需求同高失业、高债务、高泡沫等风险交织，主要经济体走势和政策取向继续分化，经济环境的不确定性依然突出；地缘政治因素更加突出，局部动荡此起彼伏；恐怖主义、网络安全、能源安全、粮食安全、气候变化、重大传染性疾病等非传统安全和全球性挑战不断增多，南北发展差距依然很大。推进人类和平与发展的崇高事业依然任重而道远。

 

The international situation continues to experience profound and complex changes, with significant development in multipolarization and economic globalization. Cultural diversity and IT application are making constant progress while readjustment is accelerating in international landscape and order. Countries around the world are losing no time in adjusting their development strategies, pursuing transformation and innovation, changing their economic development models, improving economic structures and opening up new horizons for further development. At the same time, however, the world economy is still in a period of profound adjustment, with risks of low growth, low inflation and low demand interwoven with risks of high unemployment, high debt and high level of bubbles. The performance and policies of major economies continue to diverge, and uncertainties in the economic climate remain prominent. Geopolitical factors are more at play and local turmoils keep cropping up. Non-traditional security threats and global challenges including terrorism, cyber security, energy security, food security, climate change and major infectious diseases are on the rise, and the North-South gap is still wide. The noble cause of peace and development remains a long and arduous journey for mankind.

 

人类只有一个地球，各国共处一个世界。世界好，亚洲才能好；亚洲好，世界才能好。面对风云变幻的国际和地区形势，我们要把握好世界大势，跟上时代潮流，共同营造对亚洲、对世界都更为有利的地区秩序，通过迈向亚洲命运共同体，推动建设人类命运共同体。借此机会，我愿就此谈一谈看法，同各位嘉宾交流。

 

We have only one planet, and countries share one world. To do well, Asia and the world could not do without each other. Facing the fast changing international and regional landscapes, we must see the whole picture, follow the trend of our times and jointly build a regional order that is more favorable to Asia and the world. We should, through efforts towards such a community for Asia, promote a community of common interest for all mankind. I wish to take this opportunity to share with you my thoughts on this vision.

 

——迈向命运共同体，必须坚持各国相互尊重、平等相待。各国体量有大小、国力有强弱、发展有先后，但都是国际社会平等的一员，都有平等参与地区和国际事务的权利。涉及大家的事情要由各国共同商量来办。作为大国，意味着对地区和世界和平与发展的更大责任，而不是对地区和国际事务的更大垄断。

 

– To build a community of common destiny, we need to make sure that all countries respect one another and treat each other as equals. Countries may differ in size, strength or level of development, but they are all equal members of the international community with equal rights to participate in regional and international affairs. On matters that involve us all, we should discuss and look for a solution together. Being a big country means shouldering greater responsibilities for regional and world peace and development, as opposed to seeking greater monopoly over regional and world affairs.

 

相互尊重、平等相待，首先要尊重各国自主选择的社会制度和发展道路，尊重彼此核心利益和重大关切，客观理性看待别国发展壮大和政策理念，努力求同存异、聚同化异。要共同维护亚洲来之不易的和平稳定局面和良好发展势头，反对干涉别国内政，反对为一己之私搞乱地区形势。

 

To respect one another and treat each other as equals, countries need to, first and foremost, respect other countries’ social systems and development paths of their own choice, respect each other’s core interests and major concerns and have objective and rational perception of other countries’ growing strength, policies and visions. Efforts should be made to seek common ground while shelving differences, and better still to increase common interests and dissolve differences. The hard-won peace and stability in Asia and the sound momentum for development should be upheld by all. All of us must oppose interference in other countries’ internal affairs and reject attempts to destablize the region out of selfish motives.

 

——迈向命运共同体，必须坚持合作共赢、共同发展。东南亚朋友讲“水涨荷花高”，非洲朋友讲“独行快，众行远”，欧洲朋友讲“一棵树挡不住寒风”，中国人讲“大河有水小河满，小河有水大河满”。这些说的都是一个道理，只有合作共赢才能办大事、办好事、办长久之事。要摒弃零和游戏、你输我赢的旧思维，树立双赢、共赢的新理念，在追求自身利益时兼顾他方利益，在寻求自身发展时促进共同发展。合作共赢的理念不仅适用于经济领域，也适用于政治、安全、文化等广泛领域；不仅适用于地区国家之间，也适用于同域外国家开展合作。要加强宏观经济政策协调，防范不同经济体经济政策变动可能带来的负面外溢效应，积极推动全球经济治理变革，维护开放型世界经济体制，共同应对世界经济中的风险和挑战。

 

– To build a community of common destiny, we need to seek win-win cooperation and common development. Our friends in Southeast Asia say that the lotus flowers grow taller as the water rises. Our friends in Africa say that if you want to go fast, walk alone; and if you want to go far, walk together. Our friends in Europe say that a single tree cannot block the chilly wind. And Chinese people say that when big rivers have water, the small ones are filled; and when small rivers have water, the big ones are filled. All these sayings speak to one same truth, that is, only through win-win cooperation can we make big and sustainable achievements that are beneficial to all. The old mindset of zero-sum game should give way to a new approach of win-win and all-win cooperation. The interests of others must be accommodated while pursuing one’s own interests, and common development must be promoted while seeking one’s own development. The vision of win-win cooperation not only applies to the economic field, but also to the political, security, cultural and many other fields. It not only applies to countries within the region, but also to cooperation with countries from outside the region. We should enhance coordination of macroeconomic policies to prevent negative spill-over effects that may arise from economic policy changes in individual economies. We should actively promote reform of global economic governance, uphold an open world economy, and jointly respond to risks and challenges in the world economy.

 

中国和东盟国家将携手建设更为紧密的中国—东盟命运共同体，东盟和中国、日本、韩国致力于2020年建成东亚经济共同体。我们要积极构建亚洲自由贸易网络，争取在2015年完成中国—东盟自由贸易区升级谈判和区域全面经济伙伴关系协定谈判。在推进亚洲经济一体化的同时，我们要坚持开放的区域主义，协调推进包括亚太经合组织在内的跨区域合作。

 

China and ASEAN countries will join hands in building an even closer China-ASEAN community of common destiny. The building of an East Asia economic community for ASEAN, China, Japan and ROK will be completed in 2020. We should actively build a free trade cooperation network in Asia and strive to conclude negotiations on an upgraded China-ASEAN FTA and on Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) in 2015. In advancing economic integration in Asia, we need to stay committed to open regionalism and move forward trans-regional cooperation, including APEC, in a coordinated manner.

 

我们要积极推动构建地区金融合作体系，探讨搭建亚洲金融机构交流合作平台，推动亚洲基础设施投资银行同亚洲开发银行、世界银行等多边金融机构互补共进、协调发展。要加强在货币稳定、投融资、信用评级等领域务实合作，推进清迈倡议多边化机制建设，建设地区金融安全网。要推进建设亚洲能源资源合作机制，保障能源资源安全。

 

We will vigorously promote a system of regional financial cooperation, explore a platform for exchanges and cooperation among Asian financial institutions, and advance complementary and coordinated development between the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) and such multilateral financial institutions as the Asian Development Bank and the World Bank. We will strengthen practical cooperation in currency stability, investment and financing, and credit rating, make progress in institution building for the Chiang Mai Initiative Multilateralization and build a regional financial security network. We will work towards an energy and resources cooperation mechanism in Asia to ensure energy and resources security.

 

中方倡议加快制定东亚和亚洲互联互通规划，促进基础设施、政策规划、人员往来全面融合。要加强海上互联互通建设，推进亚洲海洋合作机制建设，促进海洋经济、环保、灾害管理、渔业等各领域合作，使海洋成为连接亚洲国家的和平、友好、合作之海。

 

China proposes that plans be formulated regarding connectivity building in East Asia and Asia at large to advance full integration in infrastructure, policies and institutions and personnel flow. We may increase maritime connectivity, speed up institution building for marine cooperation in Asia, and step up cooperation in marine economy, environmental protection, disaster management and fishery. This way, we could turn the seas of Asia into seas of peace, friendship and cooperation for Asian countries.

 

——迈向命运共同体，必须坚持实现共同、综合、合作、可持续的安全。当今世界，安全的内涵和外延更加丰富，时空领域更加宽广，各种因素更加错综复杂。各国人民命运与共、唇齿相依。当今世界，没有一个国家能实现脱离世界安全的自身安全，也没有建立在其他国家不安全基础上的安全。我们要摒弃冷战思维，创新安全理念，努力走出一条共建、共享、共赢的亚洲安全之路。

 

– To build a community of common destiny, we need to pursue common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable security. In today’s world, security means much more than before and its implications go well beyond a single region or time frame. All sorts of factors could have a bearing on a country’s security. As people of all countries share common destiny and become increasingly interdependent, no country could have its own security ensured without the security of other countries or of the wider world. The Cold War mentality should truly be discarded and new security concepts be nurtured as we explore a path for Asia that ensures security for all, by all and of all.

 

各国都有平等参与地区安全事务的权利，也都有维护地区安全的责任，每一个国家的合理安全关切都应该得到尊重和保障。要通盘考虑亚洲安全问题的历史经纬和现实状况，多管齐下、综合施策，协调推进地区安全治理，统筹维护传统和非传统领域安全。要通过对话合作促进各国和本地区安全，以合作谋和平、以合作促安全，坚持以和平方式解决争端，反对动辄使用武力或以武力相威胁。要坚持发展和安全并重，以可持续发展促进可持续安全。亚洲国家要加强同其他地区国家和有关组织合作，欢迎各方为亚洲发展和安全发挥积极和建设性作用。

 

We believe that countries are all entitled to take an equal part in regional security affairs and all are obliged to work to ensure security for the region. The legitimate security concerns of each country need to be respected and addressed. At the same time, in handling security issues in Asia, it is important to bear in mind both the history and reality of Asia, take a multi-pronged and holistic approach, improve coordinated regional security governance, and safeguard security in both the traditional and non-traditional realms. It is important to conduct dialogue and cooperation to enhance security at national and regional levels, and to increase cooperation as the way to safeguard peace and security. It is important to resolve disputes through peaceful means, and oppose the willful use or threat of force. Security should be given equal emphasis as development, and sustainable development surely provides a way to sustainable security. Countries in Asia need to step up cooperation with countries and organizations outside the region and all parties are welcome to play a positive and constructive role in upholding development and security in Asia.

 

——迈向命运共同体，必须坚持不同文明兼容并蓄、交流互鉴。在漫长历史长河中，如亚洲的黄河和长江流域、印度河和恒河流域、幼发拉底河和底格里斯河流域以及东南亚等地区孕育了众多古老文明，彼此交相辉映、相得益彰，为人类文明进步作出了重要贡献。今天的亚洲，多样性的特点仍十分突出，不同文明、不同民族、不同宗教汇聚交融，共同组成多彩多姿的亚洲大家庭。

 

– To build a community of common destiny, we need to ensure inclusiveness and mutual learning among civilizations. History, over the past millennia, has witnessed ancient civilizations appear and thrive along the Yellow and Yangtze Rivers, the Indus, the Ganges, the Euphrates, and the Tigris River as well as in Southeast Asia, each adding its own splendour to the progress of human civilization. Today, Asia has proudly maintained its distinct diversity and still nurtures all the civilizations, ethnic groups and religions in this big Asian family.

 

中国古代思想家孟子说过：“夫物之不齐，物之情也。”不同文明没有优劣之分，只有特色之别。要促进不同文明不同发展模式交流对话，在竞争比较中取长补短，在交流互鉴中共同发展，让文明交流互鉴成为增进各国人民友谊的桥梁、推动人类社会进步的动力、维护世界和平的纽带。

 

Mencius, the great philosopher in ancient China, said, “Things are born to be different.” Civilizations are only unique, and no one is superior to the other. There need to be more exchange and dialogue among civilizations and development models, so that each could draw on the strength of the other and all could thrive and prosper by way of mutual learning and common development. Let us promote inter-civilization exchanges to build bridges of friendship for our people, drive human development and safeguard peace of the world.

 

中方倡议召开亚洲文明对话大会，加强青少年、民间团体、地方、媒体等各界交流，打造智库交流合作网络，让亚洲人民享受更富内涵的精神生活，让地区发展合作更加活力四射。

 

China proposes that a conference of dialogue among Asian civilizations be held to provide a platform upon which to enhance interactions among the youth, people’s groups, local communities and the media and to form a network of think-tank cooperation, so as to add to Asian people’s rich cultural life and contribute to more vibrant regional cooperation and development.
