Hey everyone! Earlier this week (Nov 18), the Chinese premier Li Qiang dropped major insights at the 24th SCO Council meeting, chaired by Russia’s prime minister Mikhail Mishustin. Li urged the Shanghai Cooperation Organization to step up global governance through the new Global Governance Initiative (GGI) put forth by President Xi Jinping at the Tianjin Summit. 🌏✨
At the heart of his speech were three game-changing moves:
- Global Governance Boost 🌐: align the SCO’s Shanghai Spirit with the GGI’s win-win vibes to build a fairer world.
- Development & Security Sync 🤝: supercharge Belt & Road, keep those online orders—your new smartphone or street-food supplies—flowing, and launch an SCO Development Bank plus a metabolic diseases center.
- Innovation & Green Shift 💡🍃: host Digital Economy & AI forums, build a joint R&D hub, and add 10 million kW each of solar & wind power by 2030.
With the 2026–2035 SCO development strategy officially approved, member states are pumped to deepen ties in connectivity, trade, security, and cultural exchanges. The aim? A more inclusive, multipolar world where cooperation rules. 🚀
For young pros in South and Southeast Asia, this means better digital opportunities, greener energy jobs, and stronger regional stability—basically, a future that’s tech-powered and sustainable! Stay tuned for how this summit shapes the next wave of innovation and collaboration. 🔥
