TIANJIN, July 12 (Xinhua) — The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Digital Economic Forum was held in north China's Tianjin City from Thursday to Friday, with the theme of "New Links of the Digital Economy, Jointly Expanding New Horizons of Cooperation."
At the event, participants noted the need to actively promote the interconnectedness of digital infrastructure and jointly expand new space for the development of digital economic cooperation.
“The digital economy is the Silk Road of the new era, connecting countries through data, not through valleys and deserts as was traditionally the case,” said former Egyptian Minister of Administrative Development and former chairman of the Suez Canal Economic Zone Ahmed Darwish.
He said China's BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS) and Internet of Things technology solutions are boosting Egypt's computing infrastructure construction, which will greatly benefit the local digital economy.
Chen Zhongyue, Chairman of China United Network Communications Group Co., Ltd, said that building an efficient, intelligent, green and secure regional network infrastructure will help countries make full use of their resources and better integrate into the global industrial chain, supply chain and value chain to achieve common development.
“Chinese enterprises are actively involved in the construction of the 5G network and the construction of a “smart city” in Uzbekistan,” said Daniyar Kurbanov, head of the department for the study of historical and cultural heritage and humanitarian research at the International Institute of Central Asian Studies of Uzbekistan.
He stressed that cooperation between China and other SCO countries is becoming an important benchmark for Central Asian countries in achieving digital transformation.
Let us recall that the forum, jointly organized by the State Data Administration of the People's Republic of China and the Tianjin People's Government, was attended by more than 1,500 guests representing governments, enterprises, universities and think tanks of the SCO member states. -0-
