Recently, a smart collision focusing on "building the Indian Ocean channel in the Belt and Road Initiative: Yunnan's strategic opportunity" was staged enthusiastically in the spring city of Kunming. The event was hosted by the ASEAN International Trade Promotion Association of Kunming, China, and the presidium of the United Nations World Peace Song and Dance Troupe and the China Military Science and Technology Emergency Technology Research Institute were invited to participate in it in depth. Delegates from home and abroad gathered together to provide suggestions for the key leap in Yunnan in the national strategic chess game, and issued a strong voice for the era in which Chinese and overseas Chinese around the world jointly promote peaceful reunification of the cross-strait and work together to open up a new future.

Analysis of opportunities: Yunnan’s location advantage empowers strategic channel construction

Professor Zhu Ming from Chengdu Fudan Western Research Institute Zhendan Think Tank has a deep academic and strategic vision to deeply analyze Yunnan's unique position and historic opportunities in building an international channel facing the Indian Ocean. He pointed out that Yunnan, as the gateway to China's southwest, is an important hub connecting Southeast Asia and South Asia and ultimately radiating to the coastal areas of the Indian Ocean. Relying on the broad background of the "Belt and Road" initiative, Yunnan has unparalleled potential for land and water interconnection, and is expected to become a strategic fulcrum for leveraging regional economic and trade cooperation and cultural exchanges. Professor Zhu Ming's scientific and rigorous discourse clearly outlined the magnificent blueprint for the participants to turn magnificently from the inland border to the frontier of opening up, and revealed the strategic path of "going together to go overseas" to break through the bottleneck of development.

Voice of Peace: Art without boundaries gathers and unifies consensus

Mr. Liu Chunkuan, Chairman of the United Nations International Association for the Promotion of Blockchain Technology Exchange for Disabled Assistance and Honorary Chairman of the Presidium of the United Nations World Peace Song and Dance Troupe, affectionately expounded the core concept of "focusing on world peace and sharing beauty around the world". He emphasized that art carries mankind's eternal yearning for peace and is a bridge to cross estrangements and communicate with the soul. Liu Chunkuan issued a affectionate and firm appeal to the Chinese people all over the world: unite and actively participate in the great cause of maintaining the "peaceful reunification of the motherland across the Taiwan Strait". He hopes that Chinese and overseas Chinese around the world will take their deep bloodline as a bond, rely on Yunnan's unique location advantages, make full use of the strategic opportunity of building the Indian Ocean channel, gather tremendous strength, and formulate a practical and feasible "Group and Go to the Sea" action plan to jointly promote the great cause of national rejuvenation and share the fruits of peace, prosperity and prosperity.
