A NEW STAGE
By Yu Lintao
The Belt and Road Initiative advances after years of hard work and development
Despite some governments and people in the West conjuring up arguments of “neocolonialism” or a “debt trap” to smear the Belt and Road Initiative,the China-proposed blueprint for common development of the world is becoming increasingly welcome. The success of the second gathering of world leaders to discuss the development of the initiative in Beijing showed that.

The Second Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation (BRF) held on April 25-27 gathered some 5,000 participants from more than 150 countries and 90 international organizations, including heads of state and government and leaders from the UN and the International Monetary Fund(IMF). The number was much more than the participation in the First BRF two years ago.
Chinese President Xi Jinping proposed to build the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st-Century Maritime Silk Road, collectively known as the Belt and Road Initiative, in 2013.
The Belt and Road Initiative is about jointly meeting various challenges and risks confronting mankind and delivering win-win outcomes and common development, Xi said at the opening ceremony of the Second BRF.
“The Belt and Road cooperation embraces the historical trend of economic globalization, responds to the call for improving the global governance system and meets people’s longing for a better life,” he added.
Tajik President Emomali Rahmon called the Belt and Road Initiative a multi-faceted“bridge” that can help unlock the transit potential of his landlocked country and enable it to access markets worldwide.
During the forum, cooperation agreements worth over $64 billion were signed at a CEO conference. To date, 126 countries and 29 international organizations have signed agreements with China under the framework of the Belt and Road Initiative, with Italy and Luxembourg the latest signatories.

Expanding partnership
German Economy Minister Peter Altmaier said during the Second BRF that EU countries have signaled their willingness to participate in the initiative and are planning to sign a memorandum of understanding as a group. This belies the forecast by naysayers that the initiative will only develop into an alliance of developing nations.
Former French Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin said the European recognition of the Belt and Road Initiative has improved vastly from questioning to understanding it. The countries that stay outside the initiative may lose a historic opportunity for further development, he added.

“The reason why the Belt and Road Initiative is gaining wider and wider recognition is that besides promoting the development of participating countries, it has also contributed to the recovery of the world economy after the global financial crisis, and conforms to the UN Sustainable Development Goals,” Yang told Beijing Review.
Also, the third-party market cooperation that the Belt and Road Initiative advocates enables developed countries to play a vital role,he said. With the participation of more Western developed countries, the misunderstanding over the initiative will be dispelled. Effective resource allocation and deep market integration among developed and developing countries in Belt and Road construction will create a winwin situation, Yang said.
In an interview with the Chinese media before heading to Beijing, Ueli Maurer,President of the Swiss Confederation, said the Belt and Road Initiative is a rare, longterm plan that has created a new dimension for the development of the world economy.
比如在学习“三角形的稳定性”的时候,有的教师只是强制学生记住三角形的这个特点,既不讲为什么,也不结合生活进行讲解。针对有的学生提出的问题:“三角形只有三条边,四边形有四条边,为什么四条边的四边形的稳定性反倒不如只有三条边的三角形?”,教师视而不见,让学生自己去思考。这种不负责任的教学态度既打消了学生的探索兴趣和欲望,同时也是不尊重学生发展的行为,必须要改变。
Globalization is the key to global development, and to achieve globalization,infrastructure construction at various levels is indispensable. The Belt and Road Initiative is a future-oriented project that will contribute to globalization. Everyone can benefit from improving and upgrading infrastructure, he said.
三是从现实统一战线到虚拟统一战线的发展。从物质形态来划分,共同体具有现实和虚拟维度,存在现实共同体和虚拟共同体。在信息时代,两种共同体交互存在和相互影响,现实社会统一战线与网络社会统一战线并存交织。新时代,统一战线构建共同体要高度重视网络统一战线问题。网络统一战线不仅是新时代统一战线工作的具体领域,更是新时代中国共产党治国理政的重要内容。习近平总书记站在治国理政高度强调构建网上网下同心圆。习近平总书记在全国网络安全和信息化工作会议上强调“构建网上网下同心圆,更好凝聚社会共识,巩固全党全国人民团结奋斗的共同思想基础”[23]。
部分持反对政策意见的讨论者认为,对于延迟退休年龄政策,国际上并没有绝对统一的标准来规定应该何时退休,各国的政策对于我国来说只起到一个参考作用。学者潘锦棠认为,我国应该根据本国的实际情况与理念,规划延迟退休的时间,要充分考虑我国政府、工作单位与职工的三方关系。此外,还有不少持反对意见的讨论者在劳动参与率、实际实践工作等方面都对延迟退休年龄政策产生了质疑。
According to Patrick Mendis, a visiting professor at Peking University, by its design and nature, the Belt and Road Initiative is the new accelerator for greater cooperation and collaboration among people and nations.
“For European countries, China has already established itself as a reliable partner for mutual benefits,” Mendis told Beijing Review.

“The Belt and Road Initiative implies creating a new model of international cooperation by strengthening the existing mechanisms, as well as seeking and implementing new mechanisms, with the aim of stimulating the economic development of the countries involved,” Rahmon said.

During the Second BRF, Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan said in today’s world of geopolitical uncertainty, rising inequality and trade barriers, the Belt and Road Initiative offers a model of collaboration, partnership, connectivity and shared prosperity. He called the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor not a transaction but a transformation of Pakistani society.
Yang Jian, Deputy President of the Chinese think tank Shanghai Institutes for International Studies (SIIS), called the initiative an engine of development in a world faced with common challenges such as uncertainties and instability.

Infrastructure Connectivity Under the Belt and Road Initiative
For a better world
The Belt and Road Initiative was launched to enhance cooperation and connectivity.Under it, a connectivity framework consisting of six corridors, six connectivity routes and multiple countries and ports has been put in place. East Africa has its expressway,the Maldives saw its first inter-island bridge come up, Belarus is producing sedans, and the number of freight trains between China and Europe is on the rise.
In its sixth year of development, more and more people have become familiar with the Belt and Road Initiative and realize they need to engage with it, Kerry Brown, Director of the Lau China Institute at King’s College,London, told Beijing Review. He noted that becoming part of the initiative conforms to the interests of other participating countries,and is a tangible way to engage with China,the second largest economy in the world.Though some countries still don’t, they are in the minority.

Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad told the media that he fully supports the Belt and Road Initiative. “In the promotion of relations between countries,the distance as well as the speed of travel is very important. With this scheme, I am quite sure more ships will be passing near Malaysia and Southeast Asian countries and therefore it will increase trade between Southeast Asia and China,” he said. “I am sure my country,Malaysia, will benefit from the projects.”
Over the past years, Belt and Road cooperation has expanded from the Eurasian continent to Africa, the Americas and Oceania, opening up new space for the world economy with better-than-expected results. China’s development achievements have been shared with other Belt and Road participating countries as its huge demand for imports and increasing outbound investment has generated enormous growth opportunities.
China’s direct foreign investment in other countries participating in the Belt and Road Initiative has exceeded $80 billion. The total trade volume between China and those countries topped $6 trillion in the 2013-18 period, during which more than 244,000 jobs were created locally.
For instance, in Kenya, the Chinese-funded and built Standard Gauge Railway linking Nairobi and Mombasa, called the “project of the century,” has created 50,000 local jobs and boosted the country’s economic growth by 1.5 percent. According to a World Bank study, the Belt and Road Initiative will increase the GDP of East Asian and Pacific developing countries by 2.6 percent to 3.9 percent on average.
Belt and Road 2.0
In his speech, Xi announced a package of proposals to advance high-quality development of the Belt and Road Initiative, calling on the international community to join hands to work out a “meticulous painting” of the initiative.
The principle of extensive consultation,joint contribution and shared benefits should be upheld, Xi said, stressing open, green and clean approaches, as well as high-standard goals for improving livelihoods and sustainable development.
Observers said the Belt and Road Initiative is entering a new stage of development.
“The first stage was setting the framework, docking strategies and building partnerships with other participating countries. Now, the new stage of development means implementation with concrete steps and appropriate approaches. That is what we call from blueprint to meticulous painting,”Zhai Kun, a professor at Peking University,told Beijing Review.
Since the participants have different levels of development and different infrastructure systems, it is quite natural that the Belt and Road Initiative will evolve from time to time in order to attract different stakeholders, the professor said.
Mendis said the best organizations in the world are the “learning organizations”that adapt and change accordingly. “As the best corporate practice, the governance of the Belt and Road Initiative must then adjust and refine its policies and actions to meet the needs of changing circumstances on the grounds,” he added.
Yang of the SIIS said Xi’s new proposals will dispel misgivings about the initiative. The open, green and clean approaches as well as sustainable development of the Belt and Road construction that Xi stressed will help alleviate fears about the initiative being a debt trap or a form of neocolonialism. It will also improve transparency of Belt and Road projects.
IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde hailed the Chinese Government for taking positive steps with a new debt sustainability framework and green investment principle for Belt and Road projects.
工作中情境因素或组织因素对员工的侵犯行为具有一定的预测作用,研究显示在工作情景中,组织公平、员工人际平等的情况下不容易产生侵犯行为,而不公平的工作场合,员工之间更加容易产生侵犯行为[15]。研究显示当组织发生变革,员工面临突然解聘时比较容易引起侵犯行为。研究发现常常不是突然解雇的结果本身引起员工的侵犯行为,而是员工被突然解雇时所采取的方式。如果员工面临突然解雇,而组织又没有采取恰当的补偿方式,使员工感到组织不公平,或者员工被突然解雇时还被欺负或侮辱,员工会产生不满和愤怒情绪,员工感到气愤不平,最后可能会导致发生侵犯行为[16]。

“Debt sustainability and green sustainability will strengthen Belt and Road Initiative sustainability,” Lagarde said.
Klaus Schwab, founder and Executive Chairman of the World Economic Forum,who attended the First BRF as well, told the media that when the First BRF took place, the Belt and Road Initiative was “still a child growing up.” But “now the initiative has become an adult, which means that it has become an important factor in the global economy. It has grown up,” he emphasized.
