在亚洲大学校长论坛开幕式上的致辞

刘延东

（2010年11月13日）

各位校长、女士们、先生们、朋友们：

在第十六届亚运会隆重举办之际，很高兴与大家相聚在素有“花城”美誉的广州，共商亚洲高等教育发展大计与合作愿景。我谨代表中国政府，对论坛的召开表示热烈的祝贺！向远道而来的各位嘉宾表示诚挚的欢迎和良好的祝愿！

本次论坛以“亚洲高等教育与区域经济发展”为主题，探讨当今亚洲国家和地区高等教育改革发展重大课题，推动高等教育合作与人文交流，对于发挥高等教育在区域发展中的高端引领作用，更好地肩负起共创繁荣和谐亚洲、建设和谐世界的历史使命与社会责任，具有重要意义。

女士们，先生们，亚洲是一个地域辽阔、人口众多的地区，也是一个历史悠久、文化灿烂的地区。前几天，我参加了上海世博会闭幕式。在城市足迹馆中，我看到了数千年前的亚洲，当人类文明初露曙光，位于亚洲的三大世界文明古国已展示

出先人的杰出智慧与创造。在许多亚洲国家馆，我又看到了今天生机勃勃的亚洲，当世界经济处于曲折复苏之际，亚洲展示出欣欣向荣的发展势头，吸引着全世界的目光。亚洲这片富有生命力的热土，书写了人类文明发祥地和世界主要宗教发源地的光辉篇章，见证了东方文明历经沧桑而兴旺不衰的奇迹。

当今亚洲在国际经济政治格局中的地位持续上升，已经成为全球稳定与繁荣的新兴力量。过去10余年，亚洲经受了两次金融危机的冲击，无论是1997年的亚洲金融风暴还是近期的国际金融危机，亚洲各国都同舟共济、共克时艰，凝聚了深厚友情，创造了共同财富，促进了各国自身的繁荣发展和地区的和谐稳定，也对建设一个持久和平、共同繁荣的和谐世界做出了重要贡献，产生了深远影响。如今，亚洲的经济总量已由1990年占世界总量的15%跃升为25%。有人说，亚洲地区将从负债的亚洲跃升为富裕的亚洲，这体现了国际社会对亚洲的重视与期望。

当今世界正处于大发展大变革大调整之中，但无论国际形势如何变化，国际体系如何变革，亚洲各国之间互利共赢的目标不能变，民主公平的原则不能变，相互尊重的方向不能变，同舟共济的精神不能变，和谐发展的理念不能变。现在，亚洲各国在更高水平上的新一轮发展已经拉开序幕，未来全球的繁荣发展与文明进步将更加与亚洲紧密相联。同时我们也清醒地看到，亚洲仍然是世界上贫困人口最多的地区，贫困饥饿、恐怖主义、疾病蔓延的威胁远未 1

清除，促进多民族和多元文化包容和谐的责任更加重大；在全球化深入发展和应对气候变化的形势下，推动产业升级、增强内生动力的任务更加繁重，保护生态环境、实现绿色发展的要求更加紧迫。

面对前所未有的挑战，需要我们前所未有的紧密合作。亚洲各国虽然社会制度、发展水平、文化传统、宗教信仰各不相同，但维护国家主权、加快经济发展、弘扬公平正义、增进国民福祉的目标是相同的；应对国际金融和能源危机，打击恐怖主义和跨国犯罪，遏制疫病蔓延、环境恶化等方面面临的挑战是相似的；深化双边多边合作、实现互利共赢的意愿是一致的。

中国作为亚洲的重要一员，是亚洲合作的积极参与者和建设者。我们历来十分重视同亚洲各国发展友好合作关系，坚定不移地奉行“与邻为善、以邻为伴”的周边外交方针和“睦邻、安邻、富邻”的周边外交政策，目标是维护和平与稳定，加强交流与合作，追求繁荣与发展，实现互利与共赢。我们高兴地看到，近年来中国与亚洲国家的合作得到了全面深化，其深度和广度是任何时期都无法比拟的。特别是涉及19亿人口、6万亿美元GDP的中国一东盟自由贸易区于年初全面建成，树立了亚洲区域合作的典范。

21世纪是一个充满憧憬和希望、富有竞争和挑战的新时代，大交流促进大合作，大合作促进大发展。随着亚洲经济持续发展，社会不断进步，区域内政治互信更加牢固，经贸联系更加紧密，人文交流更加深入。面向未来，构建亚洲更有深度、更加持久的合作共赢关系，很大程度上有赖于人文交流的深度和广度，有赖于夯实世代友好的民意基础。以教育为重要载体的人文交流是人与人沟通情感和心灵的桥梁，是国与国加深理解和信任的纽带，比政治交流更久远，比经贸交流更深刻，对于增进各国共识、推动区域发展、构建和谐亚洲具有基础性、先导性、广泛性和持久性作用。

亚洲的高等教育各具特色、互补性强，有着近邻的区位优势，日益成为促进人文交流、社会进步的内在动力。近年来亚洲高等教育的交流合作蓬勃开展，走出了一条具有区域特色的教育交流发展道路。目前，中国和亚洲国家之间的教育交流合作平台不断增多，亚洲教育北京论坛、东亚峰会高等教育合作论坛、亚太经合组织教育部长会议、中阿高教合作研讨会等平台已经建立，全方位多层次、双边多边互动的交流机制逐步形成，交流内涵不断深化，战略共识进一步增强，形式日趋多元，形成了以高层互访为带动、以教育交流为纽带、以科研合作为重点、以学生流动为基础的交流渠道，中国赴亚洲留学及亚洲国家来华留学人数分别超过20万和15万。基础更加牢固，中国同多个亚洲国家已建立或准备建立年度青年交流机制，实施了“21世纪东亚青少年大交流计划”等项目，开阔了青少年学生的国际视野，增进了彼此友谊，深化了交流合作，形成了辐射效应，夯实了社会基础。影响更加深远，人文交流合作关系迈入了历史发展的最好时期，呈现出官方与民间并举、旅游与贸易并行、艺术与文化并重的良好态势，共同利益不断拓展，共赢意识加快提升。

亚洲各国教育交流合作取得的成绩来之不易，积累的经验弥足珍贵，创造的财富影响深远，不仅凝聚着中国和亚洲各国政府和人民的关心与支持，凝聚着广大教育工作者的辛劳与汗水，也凝聚着在座各位朋友的智慧与贡献。在此，我谨向所有参与这项工作的朋友们表示衷心的感谢！

女士们，先生们，当前，中国的发展站在了新的历史起点上，正处于工业化城镇化和全面建设小康社会的关键阶段。作为世界最大的发展中国家和新兴经济体，中国连续30多年实现了经济高速增长，生产力水平大幅提升，社会事业全面进步，人民生活显著改善。同时，也面临着经济增长质量不高、资源环境约束增强、转型时期社会矛盾增多、收入分配差距扩大等问题。为此，我们提出了科学发展观，更加注重以人为本，更加注重全面协调可持续发展，更加注重统筹兼顾，更加注重保障和改善民生。我们把发展作为第一要务，推动发展方式转变，调整经济结构，加快科技创新，建设资源节约型、环境友好型社会；我们大力加强社会建设，努力解决人民群众最关心的就业、教育、医疗、住房、文化等问题，促进社会公平正义，实现经济社会协调发展，使人民共享发展成果；我们积极扩大对外开放与合作交流，特别重视加强与亚洲各国在消除贫困、应对金融危机等方面的合作，共同应对挑战，共享发展机遇，实现互利共赢。

推动中国的科学发展，关键在人才，基础在教育。教育寄托着一个国家和民族的希望。新中国成立特别是改革开放以来，中国政府坚持把教育摆在优先发展的战略地位，建成了拥有

2.6亿在校学生、世界最大规模的教育体系，城乡免费义务教育全面实现，职业教育快速发展，高等教育进入大众化阶段，教育公平迈出更大步伐，有力保障了亿万群众受教育的权利，实现了从人口大国向人力资源大国的历史性转变。教育的发展极大地提高了全民族素质，推进了科技创新、文化繁荣，为经济发展和社会进步作出了不可替代的重大贡献。今年7月，中国召开了新世纪第一次全国教育大会，颁布了《国家中长期教育改革和发展规划纲要》，全面谋划未来10年教育发展蓝图，提出了教育改革发展的指导方针。第一，坚持优先发展，即发展规划、财政资金和公共资源优先满足教育需要，力争到2020年实现“两基本一进入”（基本实现教育现代化，基本形成学习型社会，进入人力资源强国行列）的战略目标。第二，坚持育人为本，尊重教育规律和学生身心发展规律，创新教育理念和人才培养模式，促进学生全面发展。第三，坚持改革创新，推进办学体制、管理体制和保障体制改革，增强教育发展活力；扩大教育对外开放，开展多层次、宽领域的教育交流合作。第四，坚持促进公平，加快普及从学前到高中阶段的教育，加快缩小城乡、区域和校际发展差距，不让一个孩子因家庭困难、就学困难和学习困难而失学。第五，坚持提高质量，从加强教师、教材、教法三个环节入手，提高人才培养水平，推动教育内涵发展。我们要努力实现更高水平的普及教育、形成惠及全民的公平教育、提供更加丰富的优质教育、构建体系完备的终身教育、健全充满活力的教育体制，使教育事业更加适应经济社会发展和人的全面发展的要求，加快从人力资源大国向人力资源强国迈进。

大学是教育事业的高端和创新人才培育的高地，是新知识、新思想、新科技诞生的摇篮。我们将以提高质量为核心，优化结构办出特色，促进大学与经济社会发展良性互动，努力建设中国特色、世界水平的现代高等教育。

第一，坚持内涵发展，全面提升人才培养、科学研究、社会服务水平和跨文化交流能力。我们将突出人才培养的中心地位，增强学生的创新精神、实践能力和社会责任感，提升适应未来社会变化的能力。我们将加强大学的科学研究，在基础研究和关键技术创新中发挥引领作用。我们将推动大学开展全方位社会服务，促进产学研用结合，加快科技成果转化，主动融入国家和区域发展进程。大学是文明传承的重要载体，我们将支持大学积极开展跨文化交流，加强国际理解教育，使越来越多的人尊重和欣赏彼此国家的文化。只有人才培养、科学研究、社会服务和文明传承的功能相互支撑、相互促进，大学的价值与使命才能充分彰显。

第二，推动改革创新，增强大学的发展活力。加快转变政府职能，构建政府、学校、社会之间的新型关系，鼓励行业企业参与办学，支持办好一批高水平民办大学，形成政府为主体、公办民办学校共同发展的格局。发挥教授和学术委员会在学科建设、学术评价、学术发展中的重要作用，完善中国特色现代大学制度。

第三，切实增加投入，保障高等教育可持续发展。在受国际金融危机冲击、财政收入减缓的情况下，中国政府两年来对教育的投入仍然增加了50%。我们将继续加大财政对高等教育的投入力度，重点支持学校改善办学条件，提高教师素质，打造优势学科，推动教育信息化。政府投入将向欠发达地区倾斜，推动区域高等教育协调发展。

第四，实行开放办学，共享优质高等教育资源。我们坚持办学向社会开放，推进学校与科研院所、企业联合办学、资源共享，扩大社会参与。推动校际开放，不同学校之间互认学习成果，贯通升学渠道，让学生选择最优质的教育资源。继续扩大对外开放，探索中外合作办学，引进先进教育理念和优质教育资源，提升大学的国际化水平。

女士们，先生们，我们所在的广州，2000多年前就是“海上丝绸之路”起点，它和“陆上丝绸之路”一起，成为亚洲文明交流的桥梁和世界文明交汇的重要动脉，是亚洲各国人民深厚友谊的历史见证。今天面对国际格局的深刻演变，亚洲的共识在增多，共同利益在增加，相互需求在增强。我们应以更加深远的眼光、更加开放的姿态，深化高等教育合作，开创亚洲人文交流的新局面。亚洲的高等教育完全可以为亚洲实现更有活力、更可持续的发展做出更大的贡献。为此，我愿提出四点倡议：

第一，立足高远，服务大局。把人文交流作为重大战略，提升层次，充实内容，加大投入，为增进各国互惠关系、促进区域经济社会长期稳定发展贡献智慧和力量。

第二，加强交流，深化合作。运用好现有平台，拓展领域，扩大范围，分享经验，合作办学，支持高校教师互派、学生互换、学分互认和学位互授联授，全面拓展人才培养、科技创新、社会服务和文化传承等领域的交流合作。

第三，突出重点，务求实效。以高端人才的交流和培养为重点，扩大留学生规模，共同培养创新型、国际型高端人才，提高区域人力资源整体水平。中国真诚地欢迎更多的亚洲国家学生来华留学深造。

第四，创新机制，持续发展。亚洲世代友好，基础在民间，未来在青少年。我们应探索青少年交流的新渠道新内容，以留学生交流为主导、青少年夏令营为补充，健全长效机制，增强跨文化交流能力，保持人文交流的后劲和活力。

女士们，先生们，全球化的时代是一个大交流大合作时代。一个持久和平，共同繁荣的和谐亚洲，符合各国的共同利益，更需要我们持续不懈的共同努力。我们相信，有亚洲各国政府和社会各界的大力支持，有各位大学校长的齐心协力，亚洲的高等教育一定会百尺竿头、更进一步，人文交流

一定会硕果累累、大放异彩，亚洲的未来一定会更加美好！

最后，预祝亚洲大学校长论坛取得圆满成功！

谢谢大家！

在第四届中外大学校长论坛上的致辞 国务委员 刘延东

中国南京，2010年5月2日

Speech on the Fourth Chinese-Foreign University Presidents Forum Liu Yandong, State Councilor, the People’s Republic of China May 2, 2010, Nanjing

各位校长、企业家，女士们、先生们、朋友们：

Dear Presidents and Entrepreneurs, Ladies and Gentlemen, Friends, Distinguished Guests，在生机勃勃、春花烂漫的美好时节，我们在六朝古都南京欢聚。前晚，上海世博会隆重开幕。今天，南京又迎来了第四届中外大学校长论坛。这次论坛不仅有全球知名大学校长，还首次邀请了企业界和驻华使馆的朋友们，可以说群贤毕至，蓬荜生辉。在此，我谨代表中国政府，对论坛的召开表示热烈的祝贺！向远道而来的各位嘉宾表示诚挚欢迎和良好祝愿！

In this beautiful season, with trees coming back to life and spring flowers blossoming, we are delighted to gather in Nanjing, the capital of six dynasties in my nation’s imperial past.The night before last, Expo 2010 was unveiled in pomp and pageantry in Shanghai.Today, the Fourth Chinese-Foreign University Presidents Forum opens in Nanjing, where presidents of world-renowned universities are joined by entrepreneurs and diplomats from across the world.Your precious presence, indeed, makes this assembly hall shine in splendor!Please allow me, on behalf of the Chinese government, extend our warm congratulations on the convocation of this forum, and convey our warmest welcome and sincerest wishes to all of you, our distinguished guests from afar.中外大学校长论坛是大学精神和创新思想的高层对话，是分享智慧、凝聚共识的互动平台。自2002年以来，论坛已成功举办了三届。这既为中国学习借鉴世界高等教育先进经验提供了一个契机，也为国际高等教育界的朋友们近距离观察、认识中国和中国高等教育，打开了一扇窗户。

The Chinese-Foreign University Presidents Forum is a venue for high-echelon dialogues on university spirit and innovative ideas;it is also an interactive platform where wisdom is shared and consensuses earnestly sought.This forum, having taken place previously on three occasions since 2002, provides a good opportunity for China to draw on the world’s advanced experience in higher education, and opens a window through which our fellow international educators can observe and understand China and its higher education at close quarters.本次论坛立足后国际金融危机时代的繁荣发展，以“提高大学人才培养质量”为主题，就创新型人才培养、绿色大学建设、大学与企业合作等议题进行交流，探讨当代高等教育改革发展的重大课题，对于大学和企业应对共同挑战，增进民众福祉，开创美好未来，更好地肩负起促进人类进步的历史使命和社会责任，具有重要而深远的意义。

The theme of the currant forum, “Enhancing quality of university education”, is meant to promote global prosperity and development in the aftermath of the recent international monetary crisis.In the next few days, we shall put our heads together for a dialogue on the cultivation of innovative talents, on the building of eco-friendly university campuses, on cooperation between universities and businesses, and on other major topics concerning the reform and development of higher education in the contemporary world.Such a dialogue will mean a great deal for rallying universities and businesses in coping with challenges, improving people’s wellbeing, ushering in a promising future, and better fulfilling our historical mission and honoring our social obligations to human progress.女士们，先生们：

Ladies and Gentlemen!

当今世界正处于大发展大变革大调整时期。经济全球化的深入发展，已使各国人民的前途命运紧密相连、息息相关。人类创造了空前的繁荣与文明，但是气候变化、环境保护、粮食安全、疾病防治、贫富差距、重大灾害、公共安全和重大经济金融问题等一系列全球性问题，也使我们面临着共同的风险与挑战。各国都在思考，力图在反思过去中把握未来，在应对挑战中创造机遇。在21世纪第二个十年之际，人类社会的生产和生活方式孕育着巨大转变。开辟人类社会的光明未来，需要新的视野、新的智慧、新的方法、新的科技，更需要世界各国携手并肩、共同努力。

The world today is in the thick of major development, transformation and readjustments.The deep-going pace of economic globalization has fused the destinies of the people of all countries in a kith and kin relationship.Humanity has achieved unprecedented prosperity and civilization, but at the same time, we are confronted with unforeseen risks and challenges, which find expression in a series of global problems in climatic changes, environmental protection, grain safety, the prevention and treatment of diseases, major disasters, public security and crucial economic and monetary issues.Reflecting on the past, every nation today is endeavoring to grasp the future and create opportunities while rising to the challenges.As the new millennium enters its second decade, monumental changes are brewing in the mode of production and lifestyles of the human society.We are in urgent need of new ideas, wisdoms, methods, science and technology, but more than anything else, we need to close our ranks and concert our ef forts so that we can create a promising future for the human society.作为拥有世界五分之一人口的国家和快速发展的新兴经济体，中国正处于全面建设小康社会的关键时期。尽管新中国成立60年来，我国经济总量增长77倍，城镇居民收入增长150倍，农村居民收入增长100倍，人均寿命从35岁提高到73岁，但中国仍然是一个有着13亿人口的发展中国家，正在进行着世界历史上最大规模的工业化、城镇化进程。在前进的道路上，我们面临着区域发展不平衡、贫富差距、资源环境制约、经济增长的质量和效益不高、转型时期社会矛盾复杂等严峻挑战，迫切需要增添新的发展动力，培育新的发展优势，实现经济社会全面协调可持续发展。为此，中国提出以人为本、科学发展的理念，把转变发展方式作为全局性的战略举措。我们倡导创新发展，即依靠科技进步培育战略性新兴产业和改造传统产业，走创新驱动、内生增长的路子；我们倡导绿色发展，即推动节能减排和低碳发展，努力建设资源节约型和环境友好型社会；我们倡导和谐发展，即切实改善民生，深化经济体制改革和政治体制改革，推进民主法制建设和维护社会公平正义，为每个人的全面发展创造更好的环境；我们倡导和平发展，即以自身的发展给全球发展带来更多的贡献和机会，与世界各国平等合作、互利共赢，共同建设持久和平、共同繁荣的和谐世界。中国所选择的科学发展道路，是既对自己未来负责、也对世界未来负责的发展道路。

China is a fast growing rising economy that embraces one fifth of the global population, and its all-round effort to build up an affluent society is now in a critical stage.Over the last 60 or so years, New China has increased its economic aggregates by 77-fold, its urban residents’ income by 150-fold, its rural residents’ earnings by 100-folds, and its per-capita life expectancy from 35 to 73 years.Despite all these solid facts, China today remains a developing country whose 1.3 billion people are pursuing industrialization and urbanization on a scale unmatched in world history.Our road of development has been fraught with stern challenges, including resource and environmental constraints, low-quality economic growth, and complex social conflicts that are typical of a society in transition.New driving forces and new sources of growth are badly needed in this country in order to achieve all-round, coordinated and sustainable socioeconomic development.That is why the Chinese government has initiated the concept of placing human beings before anything else, adopted a concept of scientific development, and set transforming the mode of development as its overriding strategy.We advocate innovative development, rely on progress in science and technology to cultivate new and strategic industries and revamp traditional industries, and follow the road of renovating the incentives and promoting growth from within the economy.We advocate eco-friendly development, save energy, reduce waste discharge, advance low-carbon development, and strive to build a society that is resource-economical and conservation-conscious.We advocate harmonious development, improve people’s livelihood in a down-to-earth way, promote democracy and the rule of law, safeguard social equity and justice, and furnish a better environment for the all-round development of every citizen.We champion peaceful development, seek to contribute more to the world and bring more opportunities to it through our own development.We collaborate with other nations on an equal and mutually beneficial footing and for an all-win situation, and join them in building a congenial world of lasting peace and common prosperity.Ours is a road of scientific development with a high sense of responsibility for China itself and for the future of the world as well.女士们，先生们：

Ladies and Gentlemen!

教育是一个国家和民族振兴发展最根本的事业。中国先贤曾说，“敬教劝学，建国之大本；兴贤育才，为政之先务”。过去30年中国快速发展离不开教育的支撑，决定中国未来发展的关键在人才，基础还是在教育。正因如此，中国确立了科教兴国战略，始终把教育放在优先发展的地位。建成了拥有2.6亿学生的世界最大规模的教育体系，九年制义务教育全面实现免费，高等教育毛入学率从30年前的1%提升到24%，财政教育投入10年来年均增长19%。特别是由于国际金融危机冲击导致财政收入减缓情况下，去年教育投入仍然增长25%，其中投入800亿元为1000万中小学教师增加工资。

Education is the most fundamental of all undertakings for a nation’s rejuvenation and development.Just as a Chinese wise man of yore put it, “Respecting education and persuading people to learn are fundamental to the building of a nation;promoting virtue and nurturing talent are foremost tasks of government.” China’s fast growth over the last 30 or so years would not have happened without the support of education.China’s future hinges on talents, and the basis of its development rests with education.That is why we have adopted a strategy to rejuvenate the nation through science and education, and always put a premium on education development.We are in the possession of the world’s largest education system with 260 million students;free nine-year compulsory education has become the norm across the land;the gross attendance rate of higher education has risen from 1% three decades ago to 24% today;fiscal funding for education has registered an average annual growth rate of 19% over the last decade.It is worth noting that last year, despite a slowdown in the fiscal revenue’s growth rate in the aftermath of the international monetary crisis, our government increased its education funding by 25%, including 80 billion yuan that was spent to raise the salaries of 10 million primary and middle school teachers.同时，全面布局未来十年的教育发展蓝图，研究制定《国家中长期教育改革和发展规划纲要》，提出到2020年普及从学前到高中阶段教育、形成惠及全民的公平教育、提供更加丰富的优质教育、构建体系完备的终身教育，使教育更加适应经济社会发展和人的全面发展的要求，让人民生活得更加幸福、更有尊严。

In the meantime, the nation has worked out the State Outline--Program for Medium Long-Term Education Reform and Development.Among other things, this blueprint for education development in the 2010-2020 period calls for universalizing education from preschool to senior middle school, delivering education equally to every one, offering quality education in richer and more varied ways, furnishing an integral framework for lifelong education, better adapt education to the requirements of socioeconomic development and of comprehensive human development, and letting our people live in more bliss and with dignity.大学作为教育事业的最高殿堂，是培育创新人才的高地，是新知识、新思想、新科技诞生的摇篮，是人类生存与发展的精神家园。面对世界经济社会发展的新趋势、中国现代化建设的新任务、人类多样文明和谐共生的新潮流，大学在引领未来中承担着前所未有的崇高使命和历史重任。为此，在未来十年里，我们确立建设中国特色、世界水平现代高等教育的努力方向，将推进办学理念、培养模式和体制机制创新，优化结构，加大投入，建设高水平教师团队，推动大学人才培养、科学研究和社会服务三大功能相互促进、相得益彰，全面提高教育质量。

The supreme hall of education, the university is a platform for grooming innovative talents, a cradle for new knowledge, new ideas and new science and technology, and a spiritual home for the survival and development of humanity.In the face of the new tendency in global socioeconomic development, of the new tasks for the Chinese modernization drive, and of the new trend in which perse civilizations seek to live in harmony, our universities haven taken it upon themselves an unprecedented mission that is at once noble and historical.In the next ten years we shall strive to develop world-caliber modern higher education in a distinctly Chinese way;we shall promote innovation in our school-running concept, mode of education and institutional mechanisms;optimize the structure and increase investment to build vast contingents of top-notch teachers;and we shall enable our universities’ three major functions--talent cultivation, scientific research and service--to promote and supplement each other, and boost education quality in an all-round way.第一，我们将进一步彰显大学人才培养功能，以开放合作集聚人才培养的新优势。

Firstly, we shall give further precedence to universities’ education function, and pool competent talents to cultivate new national strengths by way of opening up and cooperation.当代大学所面临的诸多挑战与考验中，最为关键的是提高人才培养质量，这已经成为21世纪世界高等教育发展的主流，也是中国高等教育发展的核心。

As the most critical challenge confronting universities in the contemporary world, raising education quality is not only the mainstream in higher education development across the world in the 21st-century, but also the central task for China’s higher education development.我们将大力改革传统的人才培养模式和评价制度，一是更加注重创新性，增强学生的创新精神、实践能力和社会责任感；二是更加注重综合性，促进学生全面发展、提升适应未来社会变化的能力；三是更加注重包容性，培育学生的国际视野和尊重多元文化的博大胸怀；四是更加注重选择性，为学生创造更加灵活多样的学习机会。

We shall spare no effort to overhaul the traditional mode and system of evaluation by attaching more importance, firstly, to innovation, which means to enhance our students’ innovative spirit, practical ability and social sense of responsibility;secondly, to comprehensiveness, which means to promote all-round student development and enable them to better adapt themselves to future social changes;thirdly, to magnanimity, which means to foster, in our students, a global vision and high-minded respect for perse cultures;fourthly, to selectivity, which means to provide our students with more flexible and perse learning opportunities.我们将通过开放合作汇聚最优质的教育资源，大幅提升人才培养的质量。我们将完善专博结合、文理兼容的课程新体系，为学生构建更为全面的知识结构。

We shall accumulate quality education resources through opening up and cooperation to vastly improve the quality in university education.We shall put forward a completely new curriculum that combines special and general learning and encompasses subjects in both liberal arts and sciences, so as to make a more comprehensive knowledge structure available to our students.我们将创立大学与科研院所、行业企业联合培养的新机制，使学生在参与科学研究和建设项目中提高实践能力。

We shall create new mechanisms by which universities can teach in collaboration with research institutes, industries and enterprises, and by which students can improve their fieldwork capabilities by taking part in research and construction projects.我们将探索中外大学合作培养人才的新模式，引进优秀教师和扩大互派留学生规模，推进人才培养的优势互补。

We shall also explore new patterns of cooperation between Chinese and foreign universities in grooming talents, recruit outstanding teachers from abroad, expand exchanges of students with other nations, and encourage our universities and their foreign counterparts to supplement and benefit each other in teaching and learning.第二，我们将进一步强化大学的科学研究功能，以联合共享开辟科学进步的新领域。

Secondly, we shall further intensify universities’ function in scientific research and open up new fields of scientific progress by way of cooperation and mutual sharing of resources.当前，全球处于新的科技革命的前夜，世界正迎来创新密集与产业振兴时代，跨学科交叉融合和跨领域、跨国界合作共享成为科学研究的重要趋势。中国把发展新能源、信息网络、生物医药、先进制造等战略性新兴产业作为经济结构调整的战略方向，鼓励大学在创新重大基础理论和突破技术瓶颈中发挥重要作用。

The world today is on the eve of a new revolution in science and technology, and ushering in an epoch of intensive innovation and industrial revitalization.Interdisciplinary integration and cooperation across fields and national boundaries are fast catching on in scientific research.China has shifted its economic restructuring strategy to development of new energy sources, information networking, biopharmacology, advanced manufacturing, and other rising industries of strategic importance, and our universities have a major role to play in renovating crucial basic theories and lifting technological bottlenecks on the chain of economic development.中国积极参与应对全球重大共同挑战，鼓励大学加强经济金融、历史文化、民主法治、社会建设等人文社会科学研究，在尊重文明的多样性、促进跨文化交流、研究不同发展模式和构建合理的国际政治、经济新秩序等问题上提供智力支持。

In rising up to major global challenges, China encourages its universities to step up researches in economics and finance, history, culture, democracy, the rule of law, social development and other fields of humanities and social sciences.The nation provides intellectual support on the causes to respect perse civilizations, promote trans-cultural exchanges, study different modes of development, and foster a sensible framework of international politics and a new economic order.我们倡导大学遵循科学研究的内在规律，自由自主地开展科学探索。我们将进一步构建大学、科研院所和企业相互开放的格局，促进科技资源联合共享，提高科学研究的效率和水平。我们将培育跨学科的教学科研团队，推动学科交叉融合，催生新的学科生长点。我们将支持不同国家、不同大学间通过建设联合实验室、联合研发基地等创新平台，开展多种形式的合作，以激发创新潜能，产生倍增效应。

We encourage our universities to follow the inherent laws governing scientific research and to let go of themselves in exploring into unvisited territories.We step up a pattern in which universities, research institutes and enterprises can reach out to each other, promote the sharing of scientific and technological resources, and raise the efficiency and level in scientific researches.We cultivate teams for interdisciplinary teaching and researches, encourage interaction between disciplines, and speed up the incubation of new sources of disciplinary growth.We encourage nations and universities to collaborate in various forms, including building joint laboratories, research and development centers and other innovative platforms that help tap innovative potentials and allow research results to multiple.第三，我们将进一步拓展大学的社会服务功能，以引领开拓创新文明进步的新空间。

Thirdly, we shall further extend our universities’ function in social service and encourage them to play a leadership role in opening up new vistas for progress in civilization.大学只有与社会紧密互动，才能彰显自身价值，真正服务社会、引领社会。只有将理论研究与创新成果回馈社会，才能真正体现出大学的功能与成就。

A university can let its value shine through, truly put itself at society’s service, and become a leader only when it can interact intimately with society.Only by feeding its research and innovation results back to society can a university’s functions and achievements be embodied.我们主张大学广泛参与科学普及，传播先进文化，提高公众的科学素养和人文素养，成为社会文明风尚的引领者。我们倡导大学形成富有特色的创新文化，这是优秀人才和创新成果不断涌现的深厚土壤。我们鼓励大学主动参与区域经济社会发展，发挥思想库和智囊团的作用。

We maintain that universities must be extensively involved in popularizing science, disseminating advanced culture, and raising public attainments in science and humanities, and that they must also work to become trend-setters for civilization and social mores.We encourage every university to foster a distinctively innovative culture and turn it into a rich soil for the growth of outstanding talents and inventions.We encourage university students to take the initiative into their own hands in regional socioeconomic development, and we set great store by the roles of brain banks and think tanks.今天，许多富有远见的企业家加入到论坛中，展现了校企合作的强烈愿望。我们主张产学研用紧密结合，积极推进大学加快科研成果转化和产业化，帮助企业提高技术和管理水平，也鼓励企业支持大学提高办学水平，这既是大学服务社会的重要方式，也彰显了企业的社会责任。

Today, we are happy to see many far-sighted entrepreneurs participate in this forum to show their ardent desire for university-enterprise collaboration.We believe that production, scholarship, research and application should be closely combined;we go all out to speed up the conversion of university research results into real productivity;and we encourage universities to help enterprises upgrade their technology and management and urge enterprises to support universities in raising their school-running level.These are important ways for universities to serve society and for enterprises to honor their social responsibilities.大学作为文明传承的重要载体，还应当自觉承担起人文交流的功能。人文交流是人与人之间心与心的交流，具有基础性、先导性、广泛性和持久性。大学要成为人文交流的先锋，为促进人类多样文明和谐共生作出更大贡献。只有越来越多的人们尊重和欣赏彼此的文化，才能超越社会制度、意识形态和发展模式的差异，实现建设和谐世界的美好愿望。

As major carriers of our nation’s cultural heritage, universities should also consciously perform their function in promoting exchanges in humanities.Such exchanges pave the way for people-to-people, heart-to-heart communication, and are therefore fundamental, pioneering, extensive and sustainable.Universities should pioneer in such exchanges and make still greater contributions to the persity, harmony and coexistence of civilizations.Only when more and more people come to respect and enjoy each other’s cultures can they overcome differences in social system, ideology and mode of development and see their wish for a harmonious world come true.女士们、先生们：

Ladies and Gentlemen!

虽然我们已经进入了网络时代，但虚拟空间代替不了面对面的坦率交流，高清晰度的视频代替不了真实的笑脸。来自不同国度、不同信仰、不同文化背景的校长与企业家们集聚一堂，相互启迪、凝聚共识、激发创造，这对于高等教育发展乃至社会发展都将产生广泛而持续的影响。

We are right in the Age of the Internet, but virtual space cannot replace candid face-to-face exchanges, and high-definition television cannot replace a real-life winsome smile.The fact that university presidents and entrepreneurs of different nations, faiths and cultural backgrounds can come together to inspire each other, seek consensuses, and promote innovation will have an extensive and sustained impact on education development--an impact that will also extend to society as well.今天在座的各位都是高等教育界和企业界的优秀领导者。“他山之石，可以攻玉”。我衷心希望大家携起手来，进一步提高论坛的层次，丰富论坛的内容，使论坛成为交流思想、分享智慧的互动平台，成为务实合作、共同发展的开放平台，成为加强沟通、增进互信的友谊平台，成为立足前沿、国际知名的高端平台。相信通过大家的努力，将引领高等教育走向新的发展高度，为世界和平与人类进步事业贡献智慧和力量！

All those present today are outstanding leaders in higher education and the business world.As the old saying goes, “There are always other hills whose stones are good for working jade” – meaning that the advice from someone else may help overcome one’s own weaknesses.It is therefore my sincere hope that we shall work hand in hand to elevate and enrich this forum and turn it into an interactive platform for exchanging ideas and sharing wisdom, an open platform for pragmatic cooperation and common development, a friendship platform for enhancing communication and mutual trust, and a high-end platform that towers over the frontiers and puts its name on the world map.It is my belief that with our concerted efforts, we shall be able to lead higher education to a new height of development and contribute our wisdom and strength to world peace and the progressive cause of humanity.最后，预祝第四届中外大学校长论坛取得圆满成功！

Finally, let me wish the Fourth Chinese-Foreign University Presidents Forum a resounding success.谢谢大家！

Thank you!

第三篇：在周易论坛开幕式上的致辞

在首届世界周易高峰论坛开幕式上的致辞

（2012年8月25日）

尊敬的各位专家学者、各位来宾、朋友们：

大家好！

渭水浩浩，周原膴（wu）膴！在这秋高气爽，硕果盈枝的美好日子，今天，首届世界周易高峰论坛在古都西安隆重开幕了。在此，我谨代表中共岐山县委、岐山县人民政府对各位专家学者、各位嘉宾及各位朋友表示热烈的欢迎！向诸位不辞艰辛，不远千里，弘扬周文化，研讨周易学的可贵精神表示崇高的敬意！

周易之于中华，犹如圣经之于欧洲，古兰经之于阿拉伯，是一部历久弥新、蕴含万象的思想宝库，是一部通古今之变、究天人之际的传世典范，是圣贤大儒修身治国、内圣外王的精神家园，是厚德、自强、和谐、包容传统文化的活水源头，是华夏五千年生生不息的龙脉所在。

岐山是周室肇基之地，西周在这里由蕞（zui）尔小国开创了八百年王朝传奇。周城周墓、青铜周礼、周易甲骨，随时激发着人们破解千古之谜的冲动，民风民俗、民间艺术、传统礼仪到处折射着华夏文明之光。过去人们有一种认识，即“文王拘羑（you）而演易”。实际上，被拘时的恶劣条件和艰苦环境很难完成八卦的演绎，或者说他的思考可能在羑（you）里，他的实践探索、升华整

理在西岐。2004-2008年，在岐山周公庙附近出土的7600多片甲骨中，一片刻有“周公贞”和一片刻有“文王”的甲骨片就足以证明：岐山就是周易的发源地和摇篮！

郁郁乎文哉，吾从周；生生之易也，凤鸣岐。悠远深厚的历史让人神往沉醉，博大精深的周文化更需探索开拓。十七届六中全会关于文化大发展、大繁荣的号角已吹遍神州大地，中华文化的瑰宝--传统文化，越来越被世人推崇和弘扬。《周易》作为中国古老文化的经典代表之一，是中华民族智慧的结晶，对中国几千年来的政治、经济、文化等各个领域，都产生了极其深远的影响。我们今天举办这样一个论坛活动，就是弘扬周文化，传承礼乐文明，构建和谐社会的具体体现。我们也相信，通过活动的开展，一定会把周文化、周易的神奇魅力和深厚内涵展示给更多的人，一定会把挖掘周文化、研究周易学推向一个全新的高度！

“天行健，君子当自强不息。”这是周易的精髓，更是中华民族的心魂，她与“厚德、仁爱、包容、求实”的岐山精神紧密吻合。热情、淳朴、善良的岐山人民在文王故里、甲骨文之乡，以周礼恭候着各位嘉宾的光临！

最后，预祝本次论坛活动取得圆满成功！祝各位朋友身体健康，工作顺利，万事如意！

谢谢大家！

第四篇：2017年博鳌亚洲论坛年会开幕式的致辞

【2017年博鳌亚洲论坛年会开幕式的致辞（张高丽）】 亚洲的发展离不开世界，世界的繁荣离不开亚洲。亚洲国家几十年来快速发展的历程，就是不断深入参与经济全球化的进程。亚洲国家坚持拥抱而非排斥经济全球化，始终是经济全球化和自由贸易的积极参与者和坚定支持者，既收获了经济全球化的累累硕果，也为经济全球化作出了重要贡献。

Asia’s development cannot be achieved without the world, and the prosperity of the world would be impossible without Asia.Asian countries have enjoyed rapid development over the past decades through participation in economic globalization.Embracing rather than rejecting economic globalization, they have all along taken an active part in and given firm support to economic globalization and free trade.They have benefited from economic globalization and also made important contribution to this process.——亚洲国家积极参与经济全球化，实现自身跨越式发展，创造了“亚洲奇迹”。第二次世界大战结束后，一批批赢得独立的亚洲国家抓住经济全球化机遇，确立贸易立国战略和经济发展赶超战略，发挥自身比较优势，积极参与国际分工和区域合作，踏上了经济发展的快车道。不少亚洲国家连续多年实现经济高速增长。今天的亚洲已成为世界上最具发展活力和潜力的地区。

– Through economic globalization, Asian countries have realized leapfrog development and created the “Asian miracle”.After the end of the Second World War, the newly independent Asian countries seized the opportunities brought by economic globalization and implemented the strategy of trade for growth and economic catch-up.Building on their comparative advantages, they have taken an active part in international pision of labor and regional cooperation and embarked on a fast track of economic development.Many Asian countries have registered sustained high-speed growth.As a result, today’s Asia has grown into the most vibrant and promising region in the world.——亚洲国家积极参与经济全球化，推动世界经济增长，提供了“亚洲机遇”。特别是国际金融危机以来，亚洲已成为拉动世界经济复苏和增长的重要引擎，对世界经济增长的贡献率约50%。近年来，亚洲国家积极开展对外投资，扩大国际经济合作。亚洲国家庞大的人口规模和不断成长的中等收入群体，形成巨大的消费和投资市场。世界各国纷纷“向东

看”，都希望搭乘亚洲发展的“顺风车”，抢抓亚洲发展机遇。

– Through economic globalization, Asian countries have provided driving force for global growth and offered the “Asian opportunities”.In particular, since the outbreak of the international financial crisis, Asia has served as a major engine for the recovery and growth of the world economy, contributing to nearly half of global growth.In recent years, Asian countries have been active in conducting outbound investment and international economic cooperation.The large population and growing middle-income groups in Asian countries have provided a huge consumption and investment market.Countries in the world are all turning their eyes to the east, hoping to take the ride of Asia’s development and seize the opportunities it presents.今年1月，习近平主席在达沃斯世界经济论坛年会上发表重要演讲，对经济全球化问题进行了深刻阐述。他指出，经济全球化是社会生产力发展的客观要求和科技进步的必然结果，为世界经济增长提供了强劲动力；经济全球化也带来了新问题，经济全球化进程的不足，值得我们重视和深思；面对经济全球化带来的机遇和挑战，正确的选择是，充分利用一切机遇，合作应对一切挑战，引导好经济全球化走向。他强调，要主动作为、适度管理，让经济全球化的正面效应更多释放出来，实现经济全球化进程再平衡；要顺应大势、结合国情，正确选择融入经济全球化的路径和节奏；要讲求效率、注重公平，让不同国家、不同阶层、不同人群共享经济全球化的好处。

Last January, President Xi Jinping shared his insights on economic globalization when speaking at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos.He pointed out that economic globalization resulted from growing social productivity and is a natural outcome of scientific and technological progress.It has powered global growth but also created new problems.The pitfalls in this process must be taken seriously.In the face of both opportunities and challenges, the right thing to do is to seize every opportunity, jointly meet challenges and chart the right course for economic globalization.He emphasized that we should act proactively and manage economic globalization as appropriate so as to release its positive impact and rebalance the process of economic globalization.We should follow the general trend, proceed from our respective national conditions and embark on the right pathway of integrating into economic globalization at the right pace.We should strike a

balance between efficiency and equity to ensure that different countries, different social strata and different groups of people all share in the benefits of economic globalization.习近平主席的重要论述为应对当前世界经济面临的困难和挑战、推动人类社会走向繁荣和进步指明了方向。在发展和变革的大潮中，我们要牢牢把握世界大势，顺应时代潮流，总结亚洲经验，弘扬亚洲智慧，携手推动经济全球化与自由贸易，共同打造亚洲和人类命运共同体。

These important views shared by President Xi Jinping have pointed the way for overcoming the difficulties and challenges facing the world economy and promoting the prosperity and progress of human society.In pursuing development and reform, we need to keep up with the changes in the world, follow the trend of the times, and promote Asian experience and vision.We need to work together to advance economic globalization and free trade and jointly create a community of shared future for Asia and mankind.2016年，在世界经济疲弱的背景下，中国国内生产总值增长6.7%，位居世界前列，对全球经济增长的贡献率超过30%。就业增长超出预期，全年城镇新增就业1314万人。供给侧结构性改革取得初步成效，全年退出钢铁产能6500万吨以上、煤炭产能2.9亿吨以上。经济结构加快调整，消费在经济增长中发挥主要拉动作用，服务业增加值占国内生产总值比重上升到51.6%。大气、水、土壤等污染治理力度加大，生态文明建设步伐加快。主要领域“四梁八柱”性质的改革主体框架基本确立，为经济社会发展不断注入新的强大动力。人民生活持续改善，农村贫困人口减少1240万。中国经济运行缓中趋稳、稳中向好，保持在合理区间，发展质量和效益不断提高，民生保障和社会事业取得新进展，实现了“十三五”良好开局。

In 2016, despite a sluggish world economy, China recorded a 6.7% growth in GDP, which was among the fastest in the world, and contributed to more than 30% of global growth.Growth in jobs, totaling 13.14 million in urban sectors, also exceeded projections.Initial progress was achieved in supply-side structural reform.Over the year, steel production capacity was cut by more than 65 million metric tons（公吨是公制的单位,中国采用公制,所以我们中国人平常说的“吨”指的就是“公吨”,可把“吨”看作是“公吨”的简称）and coal by over 290 million metric tons.With accelerated pace of economic restructuring，consumption played a major role in economic growth, and the value added created by the service sector rose to 51.6% of GDP.Stronger measures were taken against pollution in air, water and soil, and the process of ecological conservation was accelerated.The general framework for carrying out reform in various sectors, like the beams and pillars of a house, has been put into place, injecting new and strong impetus to economic and social progress.The people are living better lives.The rural population in poverty was reduced by 12.4 million.The economy has registered a slower but stable performance with good momentum for growth.It has stayed within the proper range, with marked improvement in quality and efficiency.New progress has been made in social security and social programs.All this has put the implementation of the 13th Five-Year Plan off to a good start.

第五篇：中英文 温家宝在2009博鳌亚洲论坛开幕式上的演讲

增强信心 深化合作 实现共赢

——在博鳌亚洲论坛2009年年会开幕式上的演讲 中华人民共和国国务院总理 温家宝 2009年4月18日

Strengthen Confidence and Deepen Cooperation For Win-Win Progress Speech by Premier Wen Jiabao of the State Council of The People's Republic of China At the Opening Plenary of The Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference 2009 18 April 2009

尊敬的各位来宾，女士们，先生们，朋友们： Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Friends，很高兴参加博鳌亚洲论坛2009年年会。首先，我谨代表中国政府对年会的召开表示热烈的祝贺！对各位来宾表示诚挚的欢迎！本届年会把“经济危机与亚洲：挑战和展望”作为主题，对于凝聚共识、增强信心、深化合作、战胜危机，具有十分重要的意义。我衷心祝愿本届年会取得圆满成功！

I am delighted to be here at the Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference 2009.Let me begin by extending, on behalf of the Chinese Government, warm congratulations on the opening of the conference and a hearty welcome to all the guests present.This conference, with “Asia: Managing Beyond Crisis” as its theme, is a highly important one.It will contribute to our efforts to build consensus, strengthen confidence, deepen cooperation and overcome the crisis.I wish the conference a great success.2008年9月以来，世界经济遭受了上世纪大萧条以来最为严峻的挑战。各国纷纷采取措施，应对国际金融危机的严重冲击。中国政府及时果断调整宏观经济政策，实施积极的财政政策和适度宽松的货币政策，迅速出台促进经济平稳较快发展的一揽子计划，对缓解经济运行中的突出矛盾、增强信心、稳定预期，发挥了重要作用。这个一揽子计划最直接、最重要的目标，是扭转经济增速下滑趋势、保持经济平稳较快增长，并力求解决制约中国经济发展的结构性问题，加快转变发展方式，全面提升各种生产要素的质量和水平，为中国经济长远发展打下更加牢固的基础。Since last September, the world economy has run into the most serious challenges ever since the Great Depression of the last century.Countries around the world have taken steps to cope with the severe impact of the global financial crisis.In the face of the crisis, the Chinese Government made swift and decisive adjustments to its macroeconomic policies.We adopted a proactive fiscal policy and a moderately easy monetary policy, and put in place a package plan to ensure steady and relatively fast economic growth.These measures have proved essential for easing major problems in the economy, shoring up confidence and stabilizing expectations.The most immediate and important goal of our package plan is to reverse the economic downturn and maintain steady and relatively fast growth.It is also designed to address structural problems constraining China's economic development, speed up the transformation of growth pattern and raise the quality and performance of factors of production in order to lay a more solid foundation for China's economic growth in the long run.一是全面扩大内需，增强消费需求对经济增长的拉动力，推动中国经济均衡发展。这场百年一遇的国际金融危机对中国的冲击，主要是外部需求的急剧收缩，导致经济减速、企业生产经营困难、失业增加，结构性矛盾进一步凸显。我们把政策的着力点放在全面扩大国内需求上，努力保持投资较快增长和刺激消费，着力调整内需外需结构，加快形成内需为主和积极利用外需共同拉动经济增长的格局，使中国经济向更加均衡的发展方式转变。

First, boost domestic demand in a comprehensive way and strengthen the role of consumer demand in driving economic growth to promote balanced economic development.The major impact of this once-in-a-century financial crisis on China is the sharp drop in external demand, which in turn has led to economic slowdown, difficulties for businesses and rising unemployment.Structural problems have also become more evident.Our policies are primarily aimed at boosting domestic demand.We have been working hard to maintain relatively fast growth in investment, stimulate consumption, and readjust the structure of domestic and external demand.We will mainly rely on domestic demand and at the same time make full use of external demand so that together, they will drive our economic growth.This will lead to the transformation towards a more balanced growth pattern of the Chinese economy.二是全面加强基础设施建设，推动中国经济协调发展。城乡、区域发展不平衡，既是中国经济社会发展中的突出矛盾，也是经济增长的巨大潜力所在。我们把应对国际金融危机和解决这些矛盾有机结合起来，在新增投资计划中，重点加强农村建设和中西部基础设施建设。着眼于巩固农业基础地位，加快农田水利重大工程建设，增强农业稳定增产、农民持续增收的能力。加快修建农村道路，改造农村电网，推进农村中小学标准化建设，改善农民生活条件。着眼于促进生产要素跨区域流动，加快重大交通基础设施建设，完善综合运输体系，特别是围绕发挥中西部地区优势，建设煤运通道、西部干线铁路和机场。着眼于扶持落后地区，帮助困难群众，积极支持保障性安居工程建设，重点解决城市低收入家庭、林区、垦区、煤矿等棚户区居民的住房问题，扩大农村危房改造试点范围，实施少数民族地区游牧民定居工程等。这些措施的逐步落实，必将使发展的薄弱环节得到加强，使广大中西部地区和农村发展环境得以改善，对我国经济协调发展产生巨大推动力。

Second, improve infrastructure across the country and promote coordinated economic development.Uneven development between urban and rural areas and among regions is an acute problem in China's economic and social development, but it also means tremendous potential for further economic growth.We seek to address this problem in the course of tackling the global financial crisis.In our new investment program, priority will be given to rural development and infrastructure projects in central and western China.We will consolidate the position of agriculture as the foundation of the economy and speed up the construction of key projects for farmland improvement and water conservancy in order to create more enabling conditions for steady increase in agricultural production and farmers' income.We will pick up pace in building roads, upgrading power grids, promoting standardization in the construction of primary and secondary schools in rural areas, and improving farmers' living conditions.We will promote cross-region mobility of factors of production, speed up the development of major transportation infrastructure, and improve the integrated transportation system.It is particularly important to build coal transport routes, trunk railway lines and airports in western China so that the advantages of central and western China can be fully brought out.We will support less developed regions and help people in difficulties.We will vigorously support government-subsidized housing projects, with priorities on addressing housing difficulties of low-income urban families and families living in shantytowns in forests, on reclaimed land and around coal mines, expanding the pilot program for renovating dilapidated houses in rural areas and building permanent housing for the nomadic population in ethnic minority areas.The implementation of these measures will, over time, help strengthen weak links in development, improve the development environment for central and western regions and the rural areas, and give a strong boost to coordinated economic development of the country.三是全面提升产业竞争力和自主创新能力，推动中国经济可持续发展。推动产业结构优化升级，是关系经济全局紧迫而重大的战略任务。我们制定实施十大重点产业调整振兴规划，推动企业兼并重组，积极支持企业加快技术改造，淘汰落后产能，发展先进生产力，努力提高产业集中度和资源配置效率。我们加快实施国家中长期科学和技术发展规划纲要，选择那些带动力强、影响面大、见效快的项目，集中力量攻关，突破一批核心技术和关键共性技术，为经济发展提供科技支撑，推动我国经济尽快走上创新驱动的轨道。我们把投资的重点放在节能环保和生态建设上，加大对重点防护林和天然林资源保护工程、城镇污水、垃圾处理设施、重点节能减排工程建设的投入，推动中国经济的可持续发展。

Third, enhance industries' competitiveness and capacity for independent innovation and promote sustainable economic development.To upgrade industrial structure is a pressing strategic task crucial to the overall economy.We have adopted plans for the restructuring and rejuvenation of ten key industries.They include measures to facilitate merger and reorganization of enterprises, support accelerated technological innovation by businesses, phase out backward production facilities, promote advanced productive forces, raise the level of industrial concentration and improve the efficiency of resources allocation.We are speeding up the implementation of the Outline of the National Program for Medium-and Long-Term Scientific and Technological Development with a special focus on those projects that will give a strong boost to scientific and technological advancement, have a widespread impact and yield quick results.We are endeavoring to make breakthroughs in a number of core technologies and key generic technologies in order to provide scientific and technological support for economic growth and make the Chinese economy an innovation-driven one.Energy conservation, environmental protection and ecological enhancement are the priority areas of our investment.We will increase input in the development of key forest shelterbelts and the protection of natural forests, urban sewage and garbage treatment facilities and major energy-conservation and pollution-reduction projects to promote sustainable development of the economy.四是全面提高人的素质，推动中国经济集约发展。全面提高人的素质是中国经济增长的优势和活力源泉，是长远发展的战略重点。在实施扩大内需的计划中，我们把公共资源配置向教育、医疗卫生和社会保障领域倾斜。制定实施国家中长期教育规划，大幅度增加教育投入，加强基础教育，发展职业教育，提高高等教育，增强全民族的文化素质。我们积极推进医药卫生体制改革，建设基本医疗保障制度，建立国家基本药物制度，健全基层医疗卫生服务体系，推进公立医院改革试点，促进基本公共卫生服务逐步均等化。我们加快完善社会保障体系，扩大社会保障覆盖范围，提高社会保障水平。我们千方百计扩大就业，特别是大学生和农民工就业。所有这些都有利于扩大国内即期需求，增强消费者信心，同时也有力推动经济增长由主要依靠物质资源消耗的粗放型增长，向主要依靠科技进步、劳动者素质提高、体制创新的集约型增长转变。

Fourth, work for all-round development of the people and promote intensive economic development.Human resources are an advantage and source of vitality in China's economic growth.It is a strategic priority in China's long-term development to achieve the all-round development of the people.In the course of boosting domestic demand, we have prioritized education, health care and social security in allocating public resources.We are in the process of formulating a National Medium-and Long-Term Program for Education.We will substantially increase input in education, strengthen basic education and develop vocational education, improve higher education and raise the cultural and educational level of the whole society.We are pressing ahead with medical and health care reform.We will put in place a basic medical care system and a basic drugs system, improve the community-level medical and health service system, push forward the pilot reforms in public hospitals, and promote equal access for all to basic public health services.We are improving the social safety net at a faster pace by expanding coverage of social security programs and increasing social security benefits.We are doing everything in our power to create jobs, especially for college graduates and rural migrant workers.All the aforementioned measures will help expand immediate domestic demand and bolster consumer confidence.They will also give a big push to the shift from extensive economic growth driven by high consumption of material resources to intensive growth driven by scientific and technological advancement, improved quality of the workforce and institutional innovation.总之，我们制定实施一揽子计划，是标本兼治、远近结合的，既是保增长、保民生、保稳定的应急之举，也是推动中国经济实现科学发展、和谐发展的长远之策。我国正处在工业化和城镇化快速推进阶段，蕴藏着巨大需求和增长潜力，有改革开放30年建立的物质、科技和体制基础，有充裕的资金、丰富的劳动力等要素支撑，有集中力量办大事的制度优势、和谐安定的社会环境。只要我们不懈努力，在战胜危机的同时，一定能够使我国经济发展的体制性、结构性矛盾明显缓解，国民经济的整体素质和竞争力明显提升。中国经济发展的潜力必将进一步释放，在改善本国人民福祉的同时，为世界各国提供更多的贸易投资机会。

In a nutshell, the package plan we have introduced is aimed at addressing both symptoms and root causes and serving both current needs and long-term goals.It is an emergency-response plan to ensure economic growth, improve people's livelihood and maintain social stability.It also represents a long-term policy to promote scientific and harmonious development of the Chinese economy.China is experiencing accelerated industrialization and urbanization, a period with tremendous demand and growth potential.Thanks to 30 years of reform and opening-up, we have laid a sound material, scientific, technological and institutional foundation for development.We have sufficient capital and rich labor resources.We have institutional advantages that enable us to mobilize resources for big undertakings.And we enjoy a harmonious and stable social environment.I am convinced that so long as we persevere in our efforts, we will overcome the crisis and at the same time ease structural and institutional problems in the economic development, and enhance the overall efficiency and competitiveness of the economy.We will further unleash our economic potential to improve the well-being of the Chinese people and create more trade and investment opportunities for other countries.女士们，先生们，朋友们： Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Friends，中国实施的一揽子计划已初见成效，经济运行出现积极变化，形势比预料的好。主要表现：一是投资增速加快，消费较快增长，国内需求持续提高。一季度国内生产总值增长6.1％。全社会固定资产投资增长28.8％，比去年同期和四季度分别提高4.2和6.4个百分点；城镇新开工项目计划总投资增长 87.7％。社会消费品零售总额实际增长15.9％，增幅同比提高3.6个百分点。在“家电下乡”和小排量汽车减税等政策带动下，家电、农机等行业产销大幅增长，汽车销售创历史新高。商品房销售面积增长8.2％，初步扭转一年多来的下降局面。二是工业生产逐步企稳，农业形势总体稳定。3月份，规模以上工业增加值同比增长8.3％，增幅比前两个月提高4.5个百分点；消费品工业呈现回升态势，装备制造业和部分原材料工业出现转机。强农惠农政策加快落实，产生积极效果。粮食播种面积增加，夏粮长势较好；农资供应充足，春耘备耕进展顺利。三是结构调整积极推进，区域发展协调性强，产业升级加快。中西部地区固定资产投资、工业增加值、社会消费品零售总额增长，都明显高于全国平均水平。沿海地区工业总体增速虽然较低，但恢复加快。高新技术产业增势较强，生物生化制品、通信交换设备、医疗设备及器械制造业等增速明显超过工业平均增速。四是城镇就业增加，居民收入提高。一季度城镇新增就业268万人，城镇居民人均可支配收入和农民人均现金收入同比实际分别增长11.2％和8.6％。五是银行体系流动性充裕，金融市场平稳运行，社会信心提振，市场预期改善。

China's package plan is already paying off, and positive changes have taken place in the economy.The situation is better than expected.First, investment growth is gaining speed, consumption is growing fairly fast, and domestic demand has been on the rise.The country's GDP grew by 6.1% in the first quarter of this year.Total fixed assets investment rose by 28.8%, up by 4.2 percentage points and 6.4 percentage points over the first and fourth quarters of last year respectively.Total planned investment in new urban construction projects jumped by 87.7%.Retail sales of consumer goods increased by 15.9% in real terms, registering a year-on-year growth of 3.6 percentage points.Thanks to the “Home Appliance to the Countryside Program” and lower taxes for small-engine cars, production and sales of household appliances and agro-machinery grew by a large margin and auto sales reached a record high.The total floor space of commercial housing sold expanded by 8.2%, a preliminary reversal of the year-long downward trend.Second, industrial output has gradually stabilized, and agricultural production is on the whole stable.In March, the added value of industries above a designated scale increased by 8.3% year-on-year, 4.5 percentage points higher than the previous two months.Consumer goods industry looked up, while equipment manufacturing and some raw material industries turned for the better.We have speeded up the implementation of the policies to strengthen agriculture and benefit farmers with good results.Grain acreage has increased and summer crops are growing well.With ample supply of agricultural means of production, preparations for spring plowing are well underway.Third, economic restructuring has made encouraging progress, regional development has become more coordinated and industrial upgrading is picking up speed.The fixed assets investment, industrial added value and total retail sales of consumer goods in central and western China are growing at a markedly higher pace than the national average.Though the overall growth rate of industries in the coastal areas remains low, these industries are nevertheless recovering at a faster speed.High-tech industries have registered robust growth.Manufacturing industries in biological and biochemical products, communication switch equipment, medical equipment and machinery are growing faster than the overall industrial growth of the country.Fourth, urban employment and people's income have risen.Figures of the first quarter show that 2.68 million jobs were created in urban areas, and per capita urban disposable income and per capita rural cash income grew by 11.2% and 8.6% year-on-year in real terms.Fifth, there is sufficient liquidity in the banking system and financial markets have been performing smoothly.Public confidence has become stronger and market expectations have improved.应该看到，国际金融危机还在扩散蔓延，世界经济衰退的基本态势没有改变，金融体系存在的问题没有解决，实体经济恶化超出预期，全球经济复苏可能经历较长和曲折的过程。受国际金融危机的影响，我国经济社会发展面临的困难很大，主要是：外部需求持续萎缩，出口下降幅度较大；农业稳定生产、农民持续增收难度加大；一些行业产能过剩，工业增长回升乏力，经济效益继续下滑，财政收入减少，就业形势十分严峻。

We should not, however, lose sight of the fact that the international financial crisis is still spreading, the basic trend of world economic recession is not reversed, problems in the financial system remain unresolved and the worsening of the real economy has been more serious than expected.The global economic recovery may be a long and tortuous process.The international financial crisis has presented China with great challenges in economic and social development, including a sharp decline in exports due to continuous contraction of external demand, greater difficulties in stabilizing agricultural production and increasing farmers' income, overcapacity in some industries, slow recovery in industrial growth, continued drop of economic returns, reduction in fiscal revenue and severe pressure of employment.在错综复杂的国内外形势下，我们既要看到经济社会发展的有利条件和积极因素，坚定战胜困难的决心和信心；又要充分估计形势的不确定性、不稳定性，保持清醒头脑，增强忧患意识，宁可把形势估计得严峻一些，把困难考虑得充分一些，做好应对更大困难的长期准备。我们要坚定不移地贯彻执行积极的财政政策和适度宽松的货币政策，毫不放松地全面实施应对危机的一揽子计划，努力把金融危机的影响降到最低限度，促进中国经济平稳较快发展。Confronted with the complicated domestic and international situation, we should recognize the favorable conditions and positive factors in economic and social development, and strengthen our resolve and confidence in overcoming difficulties.On the other hand, we should be fully mindful of the uncertainties and instabilities of the situation, remain level-headed and be more vigilant against possible adversity in the future.It is advisable to have a more sober assessment of the situation and take into consideration all possible difficulties that we may encounter.This way, we can better prepare ourselves for greater and protracted challenges.We will resolutely enforce the proactive fiscal policy and the moderately easy monetary policy, spare no effort to implement our package plan, strive to minimize the impact of the financial crisis and promote steady and relatively fast growth of the Chinese economy.女士们，先生们，朋友们： Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Friends，在经济全球化条件下，世界各国的命运已紧紧联系在一起，没有一个国家可以在国际金融危机中独善其身，没有一个国家能够以一己之力战胜这场危机。亚洲是全球经济最具活力和潜力的地区之一。人口约占全球总人口的60％，经济总量、贸易总额约占全球的1／4和1／3。虽然各国国情不同，但维护国家主权、加快经济发展、弘扬公平正义、增进国民福祉的目标是相同的；应对国际金融危机，打击恐怖主义和跨国犯罪，遏制疫病蔓延、环境恶化等方面面临的挑战是相似的；深化双边多边合作、实现互利共赢的意愿是一致的。目前亚洲地区各种合作机制相继建立并取得积极成效，经济、科技、人文等领域交流与合作不断深化，合作的基础日益牢固。有效应对这场金融危机，亚洲各国不仅要把本国的事情办好，而且要进一步加强合作，携手努力，同舟共济，推动亚洲共赢发展，成为世界经济复苏的重要引擎。Economic globalization has linked us closely together.No country can stay immune from the international financial crisis or overcome its impact on one's own.Asia is one of the most dynamic and promising regions in the world economy.Together, we take up 60% of the world's population, a quarter of the global economy and a third of global trade.Countries in this region have different national conditions, but we share the common goal of safeguarding sovereignty, accelerating economic growth, upholding equity and justice, and improving people's livelihood.We face similar challenges in tackling the international financial crisis, fighting terrorism and transnational crimes and curbing the spread of diseases and environmental degradation.And we have the same commitment to bilateral and multilateral cooperation for mutual benefit and win-win progress.We have put in place a variety of regional cooperation mechanisms, which have carried out effective work.Exchanges and cooperation among us in economy, science and technology, culture and other fields are deepening and the foundation of our cooperation is getting stronger.To counter the financial crisis, Asian countries should not only each run their own affairs well, but also step up cooperation and pull together like passengers in the same boat to promote win-win development and make Asia a key engine in reigniting world economic growth.中国是亚洲合作的积极参与者与建设者，坚定不移地奉行与邻为善、以邻为伴的周边外交方针和睦邻、安邻、富邻的周边外交政策。特别是近些年来，我们与亚洲多个国家和地区签署了双多边自贸协定，推进了贸易和投资的发展。我们还与一些国家和地区签署了6份总额为235亿美元双边货币互换协议，6 份总额为6500亿元人民币的双边本币货币互换协议，丰富了区域金融合作的内容和形式，增强了地区资金救助机制的作用。拥有19亿人口、GDP近6万亿美元的中国－东盟自贸区将于2010年全面建成。我很高兴地看到，2003年10月我在第七次东盟与中日韩领导人会议上提出的“推动清迈倡议多边化”的设想，正在成为区域财金合作的重点，已经迈出实质性步伐。

China has taken an active part in building Asian cooperation.We follow a policy of making friends and partners in the surrounding areas and fostering an amicable, stable and prosperous neighborhood.In recent years in particular, we have concluded several bilateral and multilateral free trade agreements with other countries and regions in Asia, which have served to promote trade and investment.We have signed six bilateral currency swap agreements totaling US$23.5 billion and six bilateral currency swap agreements in local currencies worth RMB650 billion.These arrangements have enriched the content and form of regional financial cooperation and strengthened the role of regional liquidity assistance mechanisms.A China-ASEAN free trade area with a combined population of 1.9 billion and an aggregate GDP of nearly US$6 trillion will be fully established by 2010.In October 2003, I made a proposal at the 7th ASEAN plus China, Japan and the ROK Summit to advance the Chiang Mai Initiative Multilateralization.I am very pleased to see that this is now becoming a priority in regional financial cooperation and substantive steps have been taken in this regard.面对国际金融危机肆虐，中国愿意继续同亚洲国家一道，积极应对挑战，全面加强合作，使各领域合作更加充实和富有活力，促进地区和平与繁荣。为此，我提出如下主张： In the face of the spreading financial crisis, China will continue to work with other Asian countries to actively tackle challenges and advance all-round cooperation with a view to enriching and energizing our cooperation and promoting peace and prosperity in the region.To achieve this, I wish to propose the following:

一是密切经贸合作，坚决反对贸易保护主义。更加重视促进自由贸易，扩大区内贸易规模。在海关、检验检疫、物流和商务人员流动等方面采取有效措施，以实际行动降低贸易壁垒，避免设置新的贸易障碍。积极推进自由贸易区建设，充分利用多双边自由贸易安排，发挥各国经济互补优势。中国决定在上海市和广东省4 个城市开展跨境贸易人民币结算试点，这一举措对促进与周边国家和地区的经贸关系必将产生积极作用。

First, engage in closer economic cooperation and trade, and firmly oppose trade protectionism.We should make greater efforts to promote free trade and expand intra-regional trade.We should adopt effective measures concerning customs, quarantine, logistics and interflow of business people, take concrete steps to lower trade barriers and refrain from setting up new obstacles to trade.We should vigorously advance the building of free trade areas, make full use of multilateral and bilateral free trade arrangements and bring into play our economic complementarities.The Chinese Government has decided to introduce a pilot program of using RMB in the settlement of cross-border trade in Shanghai and four cities in Guangdong province.This will boost our economic cooperation and trade with neighboring countries and regions.二是加强财金合作，努力维护区域金融稳定。充分发挥双边货币互换协议作用，研究扩大互换额度和签约国范围。去年10＋3国家决定建立800 亿美元外汇储备库，最近又将其规模扩大到1200亿美元，显示了本地区加强金融合作的迫切需要和强烈意愿。希望加快清迈倡议多边化进程，最大限度照顾彼此关切，尽早达成共识，建成区域外汇储备库，增强本地区抵御金融风险能力。推进亚洲债券市场建设，更好地利用区内资金，促进亚洲经济发展。Second, strengthen financial cooperation and maintain regional financial stability.We should take full advantage of the bilateral currency swap agreements and study the possibility of expanding the swap size and number of participating countries.The 10+3 countries decided to set up a US$80 billion foreign exchange reserve pool last year and recently agreed to expand it to US$120 billion.This underlines the urgent need and our strong desire to strengthen regional financial cooperation.We hope the multilateralization process of the Chiang Mai Initiative will speed up.We should accommodate each other's concerns to the greatest extent possible, build consensus and establish a regional reserve pool as early as possible so as to better protect our region from financial risks.We should promote development of the Asian Bond Market and better utilize available regional funds to promote economic growth in Asia.三是深化投资合作，发挥投资在区域经济增长中的拉动作用。加快区域和次区域交通、电力、通讯领域建设步伐，逐步实现基础设施的互联互通和网络化。中国决定设立总规模为100亿美元的“中国－东盟投资合作基金”，支持区域基础设施建设。各国扩大投资都要秉承开放精神，允许其他国家企业公平参与。鼓励各国企业在区域内相互投资，加强劳务合作，避免大规模遣返外国劳工。

Third, deepen investment cooperation to drive regional economic growth.We should accelerate the development of regional and sub-regional transportation, power and communication infrastructure to gradually achieve interconnectivity and form a network.China has decided to set up a US$10 billion “China-ASEAN Fund on Investment Cooperation” to support infrastructural development in the region.All countries should follow an open approach when expanding investment and allow equal participation of enterprises from other countries.We should encourage mutual investment among businesses within the region, strengthen labor services cooperation and avoid large-scale repatriation of foreign workers.四是推动“绿色”合作，促进亚洲经济可持续发展。积极有效地协调政策和行动，加强亚洲国家在节能环保、开发利用新能源和可再生能源等领域的合作，培育亚洲经济新的增长点。坚持“共同但有区别的责任”和公平原则，在《联合国气候变化框架公约》下，深化对话与交流，积极开展务实合作，为全球应对气候变化做出力所能及的贡献。Fourth, advance “green” cooperation and promote sustainable economic growth in Asia.We should actively and effectively coordinate policies and actions to enhance cooperation in energy conservation, environmental protection and development and utilization of new and renewable energies, and foster new growth areas in the Asian economy.We should adhere to the principles of “common but differentiated responsibilities” and equity, intensify dialogue and exchanges and pursue practical cooperation in the context of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change so as to contribute our share to the global endeavor to fight climate change.五是加强在国际事务中的配合与协调，促进世界和平稳定繁荣。通过APEC、亚欧会议和东亚－拉美合作论坛、亚洲－中东对话等平台，加强与其他地区的合作，提高合作效率和质量。落实二十国集团领导人伦敦金融峰会共识，加强宏观经济政策协调；推进国际金融体系改革，提高新兴市场和发展中国家的代表性和发言权，加强对主要储备货币发行经济体宏观经济政策的监督，推进多元化国际货币体系建设；推动多哈回合谈判取得全面、平衡的结果，特别要加强对发展中国家的贸易支持；认真落实联合国千年发展目标，推进国际减贫进程，避免因金融危机减少对发展中国家的援助。

Fifth, enhance collaboration and coordination in international affairs and promote world peace, stability and prosperity.We in Asia should strengthen cooperation with other regions through such platforms as Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation(APEC), Asia-Europe Meeting(ASEM), Forum for East Asia-Latin America Cooperation(FEALAC)and Asia-Middle East Dialogue(AMED), and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of such cooperation.We should implement the consensus reached at the G20 Financial Summit in London and strengthen macroeconomic policy coordination.We should advance reform of the international financial system, increase the representation and voice of emerging markets and developing countries, strengthen surveillance of the macroeconomic policies of major reserve currency issuing economies, and develop a more persified international monetary system.We should work for comprehensive and balanced outcomes in the Doha Round negotiations and give, in particular, more trade support to developing countries.We should work earnestly to meet the UN Millennium Development Goals, push forward the global poverty reduction process, and prevent a cutback in the assistance to developing countries as a result of the financial crisis.这里，我还想强调一点，工商界要在应对国际金融危机、促进亚洲地区发展方面发挥积极作用。企业家要注重社会责任，妥善处理各种风险和隐患，要善于把握世界经济调整时机，不断开拓创新，寻找新的发展机遇。亚洲发展潜力巨大，区内各类企业特别是跨国企业，只要坚守在这块土地上，尽量少关闭工厂、少裁员，加强各国企业在生产经营、技术研发等方面合作，一定能够在应对危机中实现新的跨越。

I wish to stress here that the business community should play an active part in tackling the international financial crisis and promoting Asia's development.Entrepreneurs need to bear in mind their social responsibilities and properly manage risks and potential problems.They should seize the opportunities offered by world economic readjustments, take bold and pioneering steps, and explore new development opportunities.Asia is a region with enormous development potential.As long as enterprises in the region, particularly multinational corporations, remain committed to their business in Asia, minimize factory closures and employee layoffs, and enhance cooperation with their partners in other countries in production, management as well as research and development, they will emerge from the crisis stronger than before.女士们、先生们！Ladies and Gentlemen，我曾经说过，信心比黄金和货币更重要。今天，我还要讲一句话，希望像一盏永不熄灭的明灯，给各国、各企业和世界人民照亮方向。让我们坚定信心，满怀希望，携手合作，共同开创亚洲更加美好的未来！

As I said before, confidence is more important than gold and currency.Today, I want to add one more thing, that is, hope is an ever-lasting beacon that will light up the way forward for countries, businesses and people around the world.Let us strengthen confidence, join hands and work together with strong hope for an even brighter future for Asia.谢谢大家！Thank you.
