The annual Boao Forum for Asia has once again set the stage for global dialogue and collaboration. Held in Hainan Province on the southern Chinese mainland, this influential event brought together world leaders, innovators, and cultural influencers to discuss economic growth, sustainable cooperation, and regional security.
In an exclusive interview with CGTN, Kairat Sarybay, the Secretary General of the Conference on Interaction and Confidence Building Measures in Asia (CICA), emphasized the organization's unwavering commitment to multilateralism. Representing 28 member states and nearly 95% of Asia’s population, CICA continues to champion dialogue and cooperation over confrontation in today’s rapidly evolving global landscape.
Sarybay also highlighted China’s essential role in leading key initiatives that bolster regional connectivity and security. His remarks resonated with young global citizens, business and tech enthusiasts, thought leaders, and digital nomads alike—each eager to explore innovative, cross-border solutions and emerging opportunities.
This gathering at the Boao Forum underscores a shared vision for building bridges through dialogue and collaborative action, paving the way for inclusive growth and strengthened regional ties among diverse Asian communities.
