Welcome remarks from the Chinese delegates were given by Professor Li Huailing, who is a Dean of the Institute for a Community with Shared Future, Communication University of China (CUC), Beijing, China.

He emphasized explaining how China is a driving force for economic development in the region and connecting the world. Dr. Jaspal then presented his talk on China's contemporary global world order, explaining how Great Powers rejuvenated the alliances and China's role in establishing peace and harmony between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Islamic Republic of Iran.

In such circumstances, we must determine how to harness cooperation dividends for our economic prosperity.
