The New Silk Road as an Emerging Model of Regional and International Economic Cooperation—A Brief Review of the International Symposium on “The New Silk Road and China-Africa Economic Relations”

At the International Symposium on “The New Silk Road and China-Africa Economic Relations” held in Kenya, some 30 scholars shared their understanding of the “One Belt One Road” plan announced by the Chinese government. The themes of the symposium covered the definition and political-economic implications of “One Belt One Road,” its effects on China-Africa economic relationships, and the key points and procedures of related projects. Most of the scholars attending the symposium declared that “One Belt One Road” is the updated version of traditional forms of Chinese aid to developing countries, especially African countries, and meets the need for cooperation among developing countries and the industry upgrading of Chinese enterprises. The plan's core ideas differ from those of the United States; they represent a new international order and an emerging model of regional cooperation and international economic cooperation. As well, recommendations on fostering state-owned enterprise systems and a sustainable labor force in African countries were also discussed.
