In a strong demonstration of technological progress and global partnership, China is making bold strides in science and technology. During a regular press briefing, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun underscored that breakthroughs—from digital networks and artificial intelligence to explorations of outer space and the deep sea—are transforming daily life and bolstering economic resilience.
At the Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference 2025, Chinese Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang highlighted China’s accelerated push toward high-level self-reliance in innovation. Guo's remarks reflected a strategy that not only fuels domestic progress but also supports international discussions on AI governance, digital capacity-building, and cross-border technological collaboration.
China’s commitment to international cooperation is further demonstrated by initiatives like the China-Japan-Republic of Korea Innovation Cooperation Center, a joint AI innovation hub with Laos, and agreements with Pakistan for astronaut training. These efforts are paving the way for the China Space Station to welcome its first international crew member, underscoring the belief that openness and collaboration broaden the path to global progress.
As global challenges evolve, China remains dedicated to fostering an inclusive and equitable environment for science and technology, ensuring that the benefits of innovation reach communities across the world.
