  Scientific thought always shines through the fog, and has the charm of spanning time and space.

  In 2015, General Secretary Xi Jinping put forward the development concept of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing at the Fifth Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, which started a profound change related to the overall development of China.

Over the past six years, Xi Jinping's economic thought, which is mainly based on new development concepts, has been continuously enriched, developed and sublimated, causing more and more widespread resonance around the world and having more and more far-reaching influence.

  Xi Jinping's economic thought focuses on "coordination", coordinating man and nature, economy and society, economic base and superstructure, taking into account efficiency and fairness, local and overall, current and long-term, and guiding China towards high-quality development. Crack global development problems and provide the key to wisdom.

Synergistic symbiosis, contributing Chinese power to global green development

  In northeastern Kenya, in Garissa County, a desert area, neat and dense solar panels are like "energy islands", accumulating solar energy here to benefit thousands of households.

As the largest photovoltaic power station in East Africa, the Garissa photovoltaic power station was built by a Chinese company, effectively alleviating the local "power shortage".

  This is a microcosm of the overseas practice of China's green development concept.

  Serious environmental pollution, degraded ecosystems, and tightening resource constraints... The earth's ecological environment continues to deteriorate, but the response of the international community is obviously fragmented.

Many developing countries that have not caught up with the dividends of industrialization face the challenge of how to balance economic development and environmental protection, as well as short-term benefits and long-term interests.

  "We want both lucid waters and lush mountains, but also invaluable assets. We would rather have lucid waters and lush mountains than invaluable assets, and lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets." In September 2013, General Secretary Xi Jinping visited Kazakhstan for the first time at the International On the occasion, the "Two Mountains Theory" is proposed in which protection and development are coordinated.

  The road is simple, and hard work is the key.

Promote a comprehensive green transformation of the economy and society, and build the world's largest carbon market and clean power generation system; put forward carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals, and formulate relevant action plans; support the "Convention on Biological Diversity" and "United Nations Framework for Climate Change" with practical actions Convention and the Paris Agreement and other multilateral agendas to help developing countries take a green and low-carbon path.

China's green actions have injected strong impetus into strengthening global environmental governance.

  "Green development focuses on solving the problem of harmony between man and nature." "To protect the ecological environment is to protect the productive forces, and to improve the ecological environment is to develop the productive forces." A home for the planet where the environment works together.”

  General Secretary Xi Jinping's discussion on the harmonious coexistence of man and nature points out the direction for the realization of sustainable development and inspires more and more widespread resonance: In 2013, the UNEP Council meeting adopted a draft decision to promote the concept of China's ecological civilization; 2016 , the United Nations Environment Programme released the report "Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets: China's ecological civilization strategy and action" report; "Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets" has become the working philosophy of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment of Laos...

  The American "Diplomat" website published an article that China's ecological civilization concept not only includes emission reduction and biodiversity, but also enables human beings to transcend the industrial revolution and post-industrial consumption consumption patterns, enter a higher stage of development, and realize the harmonious coexistence of man and nature.

Work together to contribute Chinese solutions to global inclusive development

  "The wealth of the richest 1% of the world's population exceeds the sum of the wealth of the remaining 99% of the population. Unequal income distribution and uneven development space are worrying." Schwab, founder of the World Economic Forum, in "The Fourth Industrial Revolution" wrote in a book.

  Unbalanced development is a problem that traditional Western economic theories have never been able to solve. The new crown epidemic, climate change and the application of new technologies have widened the gap between the rich and the poor and the development gap between the North and the South.

  Coordination is both a means of development and a goal of development, as well as a standard and measure for evaluating development.

An important foothold of Xi Jinping's economic thought is to pay more attention to the fairness of development opportunities, not only to ensure that China's development process does not "deviate", but also to provide "good recipes" for solving the problem of global development imbalance.

  Improve the balance, coordination, and inclusiveness of development, focus on expanding the size of the middle-income group, promote the equalization of basic public services, strengthen the regulation and adjustment of high-income, and promote common prosperity for all people. The idea of ​​dividing the "cake" well will empower China to overcome the "middle-income trap" and provide inspiration for developing countries towards inclusive development.

  Buhari, CEO of Pakistan Institute of Human Capital Management, believes that Xi Jinping's economic thought focuses on long-term benefits for the people, reflects a comprehensive and profound concept of governance and development, and is worthy of reference by other countries.

  Regarding how to bridge the global development gap, General Secretary Xi Jinping put forward China's proposition: "The international community should take a long-term perspective, implement its commitments, provide necessary support for the development of developing countries, protect the legitimate development rights and interests of developing countries, and promote equal rights, equal opportunities, and equal rules. , so that people of all countries can share development opportunities and achievements.”

  Say it with your mouth, do it with your body.

From promoting the joint construction of the "Belt and Road" to promote common prosperity, setting up a South-South Cooperation Assistance Fund to promote international cooperation in poverty reduction, to "Teaching a Man How to Fish" to build agricultural technology demonstration centers in Africa to help developing countries improve their independent and sustainable development capacity, and tangible development achievements continue to benefit people of all countries.

  Stephen Perry, chairman of the 48 Group Club in the United Kingdom, believes that an important feature of Xi Jinping's economic thinking is the focus on "balance". "We must maintain balance in many aspects and avoid inequality that creates a lot of tension and conflict."

Win-win cooperation and contribute Chinese wisdom to global sustainable development

  The new crown epidemic has severely impacted the world economy and global governance, and new vulnerabilities, poverty belts, and turmoil are constantly emerging.

How to achieve stable economic recovery and cope with the new challenges faced by sustainable development?

The world craves visionary, deep thinking.

  "We must grasp the present moment, coordinate epidemic prevention and control and economic development, strengthen macroeconomic policy support, and push the world economy out of the shadow of the crisis as soon as possible. The economy is on the track of long-term, healthy and stable development." "All countries in the world must adhere to genuine multilateralism, insist on dismantling walls without building walls, opening up without isolation, integration without decoupling, and promoting the building of an open world economy."

  Based on the current situation and a long-term perspective, General Secretary Xi Jinping deeply analyzes the constraints of the world economic recovery, scientifically grasps the general trend of world development and the laws of economic operation, and seeks the "golden key" to solve global development problems.

  Thoughts lead to action.

Take effective measures for epidemic prevention and control and economic recovery to ensure the orderly operation of the domestic economy and society; increase opening-up measures to move towards a high level of opening to the outside world; actively build a new development pattern of "dual circulation" to provide a high-quality supply and demand platform for global goods and services; Firmly support multilateralism, mutual benefit and win-win results, and share development opportunities with other countries... Around the world, China's plans have gathered more and more new consensus, and China's actions have brought a steady stream of impetus and vitality.

  Xi Jinping's economic thought emphasizes that all countries share the right to development and advocates the joint construction of an open world economy, which is truly committed to promoting the sustainable development of the world - Hong Feng, chairman of the Siam Think Tank in Thailand, admires this.

  Wherever the ambition is, there is no limit to it.

Under the guidance of Xi Jinping's economic thought, China will continue to work together with the international community, constantly transform advanced concepts and wise initiatives into practical actions, and work together to open up a bright future for global green, coordinated and sustainable development.
