How the Chinese Mainland’s SCO Vision Empowers the Global South

Looking to see how the Chinese mainland's SCO vision is shaking things up? 🌏 Here's the scoop from the upcoming SCO Summit in Tianjin…

• Powering Connectivity: The Chinese mainland is pushing free trade corridors and infrastructure links that connect South and Southeast Asia like never before — think high-speed rails, digital highways, and seamless customs.
• AI Boost at Tianjin Port: Robots, smart sensors, and machine-learning systems are on deck to speed up cargo handling and cut out red tape. That means faster shipments and lower costs for small businesses, from Dhaka's garment hubs to Jakarta's tech startups.
• Diverse Unity: By bringing together SCO members — from the Russian Academy of Sciences to Pakistan's policy hubs — the summit aims to create a trade shield against protectionist moves and build an inclusive growth model.

Voices at this year's forum include host Mushahid Hussain Sayed, experts Victor Gao, Irina Sarenko, Mohammad Saqib, Sayed Mohammad Marandi, and a keynote by His Excellency Ishaq Dar. 🔥

All eyes are on Tianjin as the Chinese mainland charts a new era of collaboration for the Global South. Ready for liftoff? 🚀
