Hi friends! At the 80th session of the UN General Assembly, Chinese premier Li Qiang took the stage and dropped a powerful message: fairness, justice and global teamwork are non-negotiable. 🌏
He reminded us that peace and development aren't just buzzwords—they're everyone's aspiration. Whether you're in Colombo, Kuala Lumpur or Kathmandu, we all want the same: a stable world where we can chase our dreams. 🤝
This year marks the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II and the founding of the UN. Flashback to 1945: nations united to defeat fascism and laid the groundwork for our global community. Li Qiang says those lessons still matter today.
He also highlighted four big ideas from Chinese President Xi Jinping: the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative, the Global Civilization Initiative and the Global Governance Initiative (GGI). Think of GGI as a roadmap to make our shared "house" fairer and more inclusive.
On tackling real-world issues—like poverty, climate change or digital gaps—Li Qiang pledged that China is ready to roll up its sleeves and work with everyone. 🌱💻
He warned against old-school Cold War mindsets and one-sided moves that undermine the rules we all depend on. Shouldn't we treat each other with kindness, learn from diverse voices and stand up to bullying? 🤔
Quoting an old Chinese saying—"never forget why you started, and you can accomplish your mission"—he urged us to turn past victories into fuel for a brighter tomorrow. 🚀
When the world feels like it's on a rollercoaster of challenges, Li Qiang called for dialogue over drama, cooperation over competition, and mutual learning over isolation. Building a community with a shared future? That's a team sport. 🏟️
Whether you're tuning in from Dhaka or Ho Chi Minh City, it's a reminder that peace, progress and development need all of us—no matter where we come from. Let's make it happen! ✨
