To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the cooperation between Yajia'an and Japan, the heads of the Asianan countries (except Myanmar) gathered in Tokyo on December 17, 2023 to hold a summit to hold a joint vision statement.Monthly upgraded "comprehensive strategic partnership".
The main points of the three pillars are:
1. Partner of the hearts of the hearts of the century
Covering the humanities of cultural, art, sports, tourism, education, technology, etc., through strengthening the communication between youth and the people, to promote the in -depth understanding of the mutual traditions;
2. Create a partner of future economic and social cooperation
以建设多元化、包容、有韧性、自由、公平、繁荣和可持续的经济社会环境为目标,增强贸易投资、基础设施、人力资源、互联互通、智慧城市、金融稳定、能源安全、Cooperation of environmental protection, humanitarianism and other aspects;
Three, maintain peace and stability partners
Under the principles of respecting sovereignty and territorial integrity, resolving disputes with peaceful means, maintaining the unity and central status of Asia, and promoting the establishment of free and opening up, based on rulesTransnational crime.
In addition, the statement also attached 130 implementation plans, and the scope covered is not extensive.The reason why all parties can achieve these consensus is unrelated to the tacit understanding that has been established in the past 50 years.
50 years ago (that is, 1973) what it looked like?
Speaking from 1972 in 1972 in the morning.At that time, Japanese Prime Minister Tanaka Kok Rong made a breakthrough in Asia (only five member states, namely the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia).Negative perceptions are likely to make Tanaka feel that we must be serious and targeted to rebuild diplomatic relations with Asianan.The following year, Yajia'an happened to have a seminar on "synthetic rubber". Japan took this opportunity to participate in the seminar and opened a new chapter in friendly cooperation with Asian'an.
The significance of the Fukuda Declaration
On the other hand, Japan is also discussing how to improve the relationship with Asians. In 1977, the Prime Minister Fukuda Poshow released the FUKUDA DOCTRINE in Manila.Coincidentally, the content also contains three points, mainly: 1. Japan is determined not to become a military power, and contributes to the peace and prosperity of Southeast Asia with the world.Establish a sincere and sincere contact with each other; 3. With the standpoint of peer -to -peer partners, actively cooperate with the Asianan countries, and promotes the countries of all countries (at the time that did not become a member of the Asian'an at the time, which belonged to another camp).Contribute to the overall peace and prosperity of Southeast Asia.
The significance of theThe Fukuda Declaration is that in addition to political and economic, he is committed to strengthening cultural exchanges with new strategic vision, and in addition to the overall exchanges with the Asian Simpan, it also strengthens the exchanges with countries with the position of equal partners.This declaration was later nicknamed Heart-To-Heart.
Declaration of declaration is important to implement it.After more than 40 years of pragmatic efforts and diligent cultivation of all parties, today I reviewed and reviewed whether the Fukuda Declaration of that year was coherent with this joint vision statement and how to do it?
Let's start with the humanistic concept that it is because of the proposal of the Fukuda Declaration, and the sincere and sincere social and cultural exchanges and mutual trust in politics and economy have been opened outside politics and economy.The vision statement is a larger and specific plan for the further cross -generation heart partner.
The humanities represent soft power.In recent years, one of the human and diplomacy displayed through soft power in recent years, one of the results is to make it the first -class service level of its friendly reception, safe and good social order, beautiful food and good food, beautiful food, and beautiful scenery in Asia's fine security and many countries.No need to worry about being fraudulent consumption.In addition, its popular culture such as animation, clothing, and consumer products has also attracted countless foreign fans.
In the field of security, the Fukuda Declaration also mentioned that it has reached an understanding of the five countries to promote the Five countries of the Asia and Indochina, and contributes to the overall peace and prosperity of Southeast Asia.After that, the Indo -Puraki countries have successively joined the big family of Asia in Asia, and they have also had the claim that the unity and central status of Aya'an in the joint vision statement.
Looking at today's intricate international changes, the game between the great powers, at the expense of using differentiated tricks to achieve the selfish purpose of selecting edge stations in other countries.As a global highlight, Ayan also had to face the challenge of differentiation.But for Japan, it clearly recognizes the maintenance of unity rather than the differentiated Asianan, which is in line with the direction that Japan pursues and the interests of all parties in Asia.
From the perspective of mutual dependence in the field of economic and trade, Asia's Ry Ann is the fourth largest trading partner (15.4%) in Japan in 2022, reaching 33.2 trillion yen (about S $ 310 billion).Japan's cumulative direct foreign investment (FDI) in Asia in Asia was 38.1 trillion yen from 2022, which is twice that of Japan's number in China in the same period.Except for the moment, both Ya'an and Japan regard each other's reliable partners for the future economic development.
Looking at the above, and from many perspectives, the mutual trust relationship between Ya'an and Japan has been significantly strengthened. Because of this, the joint vision statement issued by the 50th anniversary of the 50th anniversary of friendship cooperation can be logically.Coherence shows the relationship between Yajia'an and Japan. In the past half a century, it can be said that it has passed the test of time.
Premier Li Xianlong also took this summit to point out that due to the historical factors of World War II, the situation of decades after the war is unusual, but now the World War II has nearly 80 years. "The situation has changed, and Japan has also changed.Can contribute to regional security. "In addition, both Asia and Japan attach importance to and pay attention to regional security and stability and freedom of sailing. Therefore, Japan can play an important role in this regard and cooperate with regional countries to jointly promote the stability, openness and tolerance of the rule of law.
Develop mutual benefit and benefit economic and trade relations
An important prerequisite for regional security and stability is mutually beneficial economic and trade cooperation.Premier Li also proposed to further consider improving the free trade agreement between the two parties.Because in September last year, the relationship between Japan and the Asianan has just been upgraded to a comprehensive strategic partner. Therefore, it is time to actively consider improving the free trade agreement between the two parties. It can further reflect the spirit of the joint statement.Promote it and get more effort to get more effort.The promoted content can cover the key emerging fields of the digital and green economy, as well as sustainable development to help achieve green energy transformation.
It is also closely related to economic development and security and stability. Asia's growth and development experience in this area can provide a good reference for all parties.In the early days of Caochuang, although the political systems of their respective political systems were different, it was given a common goal of creating a common market and developing mutually beneficial economic and trade.Because of this tolerance, the Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar and Laos later joined later did not be rejected because their political systems and ideology were not the same.It is based on this common concept and tolerance of developing the economy that Asia's Danian has achieved security and stability in economic growth, and it has also become the highlight of all parties in the world.
A smooth sailing is not for granted. For example, the problems faced by Myanmar in recent years have led toIt temporarily leave the seat. Once the humanitarian contradictions in the country are eased, it is likely that one day will return to the team again in order to catch up with economic development.
The unity of Ya'an also faces the differentiation and challenges of the differentiation of the game and challenges.In this regard, Japan has stated that it is wise and encouraged to support a united Asian security partner.Because no matter which big country, in order to differentiate the long -term costs and rebounds in order to differentiate the Asian Simpan, you must be cautious.
