Hey fam! At the SCO Plus meeting in Tianjin, east China, Chinese President Xi Jinping stressed that all Shanghai Cooperation Organization members must play by the same playbook: the international rule of law 🌐. That means honoring the UN Charter and other recognized norms — fully, equally, and without cherry-picking!
Xi's big idea? He proposed the Global Governance Initiative aimed at leveling the field for everyone. Think of it as a global rulebook to tackle issues like climate change, digital security, and pandemic response — an inclusive approach where the house rules of a few don’t get forced on the rest 🤝.
Why it matters for you:
- Fair Play: Ensuring all nations, big or small, follow the same rules.
- Digital Era: Promotes consistent standards for data privacy and cyber laws — a win for our apps and startups! 💡
- Climate & Health: Paves the way for collective action on pressing global challenges.
From Dhaka to Jakarta, young pros across South & Southeast Asia can watch how this push for equal footing shapes future partnerships, tech policies, and sustainable goals. Stay tuned — the Global Governance Initiative might just be the blueprint for our interconnected world! 🌍
