"Countries' leaders, many companies' leaders, are actually looking forward to interacting and collaborating with the Chinese, and seeing how we do this. I think actually also China should be recognized for the really positive role it's taken in the sustainability domain. If you look at the growth in the renewable sector, and solar, in batteries, electrical vehicles, these are really strong foundational points that China can actually help bring to the international community to help us collectively address this whole safeguarding the planet."

The 2025 World Economic Forum (WEF) Annual Meeting commenced on Monday in Davos, Switzerland, calling for global cooperation amid global uncertainty.

Themed "Collaboration for the Intelligent Age," the five-day event brings together nearly 3,000 participants from various regions and industries to discuss issues across five pivotal areas: Reimagining Growth, Industries in the Intelligent Age, Investing in People, Safeguarding the Planet, and Rebuilding Trust.

Klaus Schwab, founder and chairman of the Board of Trustees of the WEF, said the meeting will foster closer international cooperation to shape the forthcoming intelligent age in a more sustainable and inclusive way in the face of multiple challenges in the intelligent era.

WEF managing director Jeremy Jurgens said many parties are looking forward to cooperating with China, which is playing an active role in sustainable development.

"Countries' leaders, many companies' leaders, are actually looking forward to interacting and collaborating with the Chinese, and seeing how we do this. I think actually also China should be recognized for the really positive role it's taken in the sustainability domain. If you look at the growth in the renewable sector, and solar, in batteries, electrical vehicles, these are really strong foundational points that China can actually help bring to the international community to help us collectively address this whole safeguarding the planet," said Jurgens.
