Premier Li Xianlong moved to China on March 27 and accepted an interview with high -end interview programs in China CCTV. The interview was broadcast on the evening of March 24.When the interview was close to the end, the visitor (show host) Zou Yun suddenly mentioned that at the National Day mass meeting in 2021, the Prime Minister quoted a song in spring and asked why he decided to quote the lyrics in that very special occasion.Essence
Premier Li replied: "Because at the time we were still in the crown disease, we just started to get out of the epidemic, but before the tunnel, but there was no dawn in front of the tunnel.Dawn, but the government still needs to take some measures to control the epidemic, we still cannot relax prevention and control measures. We need to encourage people to persist, dawn is coming. "
Ask: "What about now? What do you think do we need to do at this specific time point?"
Answer: "We have gone out of the new crown epidemic. I mean that we are now coexisting with the virus. It is part of our lives and lives in. But in the post -epidemic era, there have been new problems in the world.Can't take a vacation. We must come back, the new semester starts. We have to solve new problems again. "
The older generation of Chinese students know how to sing the spring of Zhao Dan's redness. In some rally, singing this song can also mobilize the scene of joy and positive emotions, especially the end: "Dear dearGood girl, naive and good girl, do not have to be sad and not hurt, the future has its own wind and waves, steady rudder, even the ocean, even the ocean. Mo Yan, Mo Yan, darkness in darkness. "
In the era of the epidemic, economic activities have been roughly restored, and those who go out to wear masks have also decreased significantly, and their lives return to normal.However, the sky appears black, making people feel quite depressed.What new problems did the world have?In fact, the world has changed greatly before the epidemic, and the changes in the epidemic have emerged, and it can be described as intensified after the epidemic.The world is moving towards division, polarization and fragmentation.High -inflation, decoupling, and chain breaks have come, making it difficult for governments to fight.The fighting fights in the United States and China also called Singapore leaders.Singapore's situation has never been so embarrassed.
Before the epidemic, the American Crazy President Trump had disrupted the world.During the epidemic country, there was no concentric to fight against the world. Instead, he politicized the epidemic, destroyed mutual trust, deepened suspicion, and caused division and confrontation.After Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the world division and campization are more obvious. It is in small countries in Asia. Therefore, it also feels that the impact of fierce fighting in the unprecedented power of the unprecedented power has been quickly expanded from the political level to the economic level.Singapore Prime Minister should visit China with a very heavy mood. Of course, the visit to achieve substantial results is worth happy, but behind this good bilateral relationship, there seems to be a lingering geopolitical shadow.New China has close cooperation and mutual benefit. Since 2013, Singapore has been China's largest source of foreign capital.It's hard to imagine that we are just a little red dot on the map.China, with a population of 1.4 billion, has become the largest trading partner in Singapore, which is easy to understand.The former reflects the importance of Singapore's continued attraction to China, and the latter reflects the importance of China's huge market to Singapore exports.
From 1994, there have been three intergovernmental cooperation projects and a national -level cooperation project between governments.Now, bilateral relations have been raised from "a comprehensive partnership with the times" to "comprehensive and high -quality forward -looking partnerships."The two countries signed seven memorandums of understanding, including the memorandum of understanding of the substantial completion of the new China Free Trade Agreement to upgrade the negotiation.The two sides look forward to strengthening comprehensive innovative cooperation in the fields of trade investment, green and digital economy, food security, finance and other fields.
The close cooperative relationship of the new China can be described as the peak of Diechun.But this close relationship is not independent, but in a complex geopolitical environment.In the geopolitical chessboard, Singapore's international relations have inevitably worried about many concerns.
In the face of a global environment that disturbing and strategic tension, what should Singapore and other Asian countries do?When speaking at the Boao Forum, Premier Li explained three points: 1. Asian countries in the region must continue to promote economic and trade cooperation and maintain good relations with China;Mutual cooperation between each other, establish a close, intertwined cooperation and interdependence network, rather than establishing a central radiation mode.In this way, the region can become more powerful and tough; 3. Asia must also be open.In addition to intensive cooperation, it must also establish a relationship with the United States, Europe and the world.
Overall, it is hoping to maintain the good times of peace and international cooperation in the past decades.However, now the international situation is treacherous, the world is full of suffocation, and some major powers are engaged in division and decoupling, causing people to be disturbed.Therefore, in an interview with the Singapore media that ended the visit to China, Premier Li expressed his hope that countries around the world would formulate new basic rules in order to continue to operate under the framework of WTO and avoid decoustal stations.However, it takes a while to determine the new rules and stabilize the new framework. "During this period, we have to fasten the seat belt, clenched our teeth, and work hard."
This seems to bring us back to the scene in spring.The future has its own wind and waves. Everyone must stabilize the rudder, the drums, and wait for the dawn of the darkness.The speech of Chris Talina Geakeva, president of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) attending the Boao Forum, also expressed the same hope.She said that the IMF research shows that the long -term losses caused by the division of world trade may be as high as 7%of the global GDP -this is about the sum of the annual output of Germany and Japan.Asia is a highly integrated area. If the trade division occurs, the region will suffer the most unfavorable impact.
She emphasized: In the face of various forces that lead to global division, concentric cooperation will make us stronger.Working together, our lighthouse (referring to the Mulan head lighthouse of Boao) will be distant.In the same boat, we will break the waves and reach the safe harbor.Work together, we will be more secure and prosperous.
The theme of this year's Boao Forum is: cooperation and unity. Chinese Prime Minister Li Qiang emphasized in his speech that in the future, in Asia to achieve greater development, we must not be chaotic or war, otherwise they will break their future.Li Qiang's words can be described as key.In terms of extension, if you do n’t have chaos, you must have a superb determination; if you do n’t fight, you must have the strategy of the soldiers who are not fighting.China should have both!
From the conversation quoted above, we can see that everyone knows what is the most in line with Asia's interests, and also know what Asia should do next and what should not be done.The question is: Do you have enough firm political wisdom and willpower to solve internal contradictions, sincere cooperation and unity, sword and performance, steady rudder, Qi drum paddle, and implement what you should do?
