Chinese Dream good for the world
China has vowed to realize the Chinese Dream of national rejuvenation, with President Xi Jinping reassuring the world of China's peaceful development and reaffirming its principle of win-win cooperation and mutual benefit, says an article in People's Daily. Excerpts:
China has always been a peace-loving country. During the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), China launched a series of marine expeditions, including Zheng He's seven goodwill voyages to countries in Southeast Asia, South Asia and East Africa, which were a diplomatic landmark. And the ancient Silk Road was the trade and cultural exchange route not only between China and the Roman Empire, but also between China and all the countries along the route.
