professionals to help promote the dialogue and transcend civilizational
conflicts. The second China International Import Expo will be held at

"As a nexus of people from different countries, think tanks and media
should promote world peace and win-win cooperation," said Huang Kunming,
a member of the political bureau of the Communist Party of China's
Central Committee and the head of its publicity department. He was
addressing the forum "China's 70-Year Development and the Building of a
Community with a Shared Future for Mankind" on the sidelines of the
second China International Import Expo in Shanghai.
"History tells us that opening-up brings prosperity, while a closed door
hinders development," he said. "Through win-win cooperation, China will
bring the world an opportunity of development."Addressing hundreds of
delegates from the world's think tanks and media outlets, he said the
CIIE is by no means a China solo, but rather a world chorus. For many
years, he said, China had contributed at least 30 percent of global
growth, and all countries are welcome to jump on the bandwagon of
China's fast growth. "As China develops, it benefits the world at
large," he said.
China's development over the past 70 years, he said, was a miracle in
that it had achieved a rare economic growth momentum and sustained
social stability. Such an achievement was made possible with Chinese
people's independent and hard work under the leadership of the Communist
Party of China, he said, adding that copying from books or foreign
models or relying on external favors would not work.
Xie Fuzhan, president of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told
the forum that China, having achieved a historical success over the past
70 years, will continue to follow a path of peaceful development and
make greater contributions to the community of a shared future for
mankind.
Huang said China did not agree that a nation will necessarily turn
hegemonic as it becomes stronger. He said China will neither import
foreign models of development nor export its own.
Martin Jacques, senior visiting researcher at Asian Research Center of
London School of Economics and China Institute of Fudan University, said
China could not be copied, but the world would benefit by learning from
China, just as China was a wonderful learner.
