BEIJING, Oct. 27 (Xinhua) — Chinese President Xi Jinping on Monday called for the Palace Museum to be made an important base for patriotic education and a significant window for the world to understand Chinese civilization and the Chinese nation.

Xi Jinping, also general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, made the remarks in Beijing while visiting an exhibition dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the Palace Museum.

The exhibition, themed “A Century of Preservation: From the Forbidden City to the Palace Museum,” features 200 valuable cultural relics and documents, including masterpieces of calligraphy and painting, bronze and jade artifacts, and chronicles the development of the museum.

During his visit, Xi Jinping listened attentively to information about the exhibits on display and frequently stopped to look at the relics and ask more about them.

Calling the Palace Museum an important symbol of Chinese civilization, Xi Jinping pointed out that the museum should develop its fine traditions, adhere to the principle that cultural relics belong to and serve the people, strengthen their protection and restoration, and increase their active use.

The exhibition was also visited by Cai Qi, a member of the Standing Committee of the Politburo of the CPC Central Committee and a member of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee.

On October 10, 1925, the Forbidden City—a vast walled complex that was once the palace of Chinese emperors—opened to the public for the first time, displaying priceless collections of imperial art. This date is considered the founding day of the Palace Museum.

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct. 27 (Xinhua) — Chinese Premier Li Qiang said Monday that China is willing to strengthen the alignment of development strategies with all parties, adhere to the principles of openness and cooperation, and continuously unleash economic potential to expand space for common development.

Speaking at the 28th ASEAN-China-Japan-Republic of Korea (ROK) Summit in Malaysia, Li Qiang first congratulated Timor-Leste on officially joining the ASEAN family.

According to him, over the past year, cooperation between ASEAN, China, Japan, and South Korea has generally maintained positive momentum, demonstrating the resilience and viability of the East Asian economy.

At the same time, the Premier continued, due to complex changes in the global trade and economic situation, the region has faced growing difficulties and challenges, as well as increased instability and uncertainty in its development.

To overcome these difficulties, one can draw wisdom and strength from the past, he noted.

Li Qiang pointed out that East Asia has long been the world's fastest-growing economic region, creating one economic miracle after another—achievements that continue to inspire and fill us with pride.

The head of the Chinese government emphasized that openness and cooperation are valuable lessons learned from practice. They must be cherished and maintained to ensure that this experience remains a significant advantage and key to the success of the East Asian economy.

According to Li Qiang, the East Asian miracle is not a story of the past, but an ongoing story of the present.

The Premier called on stakeholders to create a favorable environment for regional development. He emphasized the need to fully safeguard the hard-won peace and stability in East Asia, maintain a commitment to resolving disputes through dialogue and consultation, uphold free trade and the multilateral trading system, oppose all forms of protectionism, and consistently promote regional economic integration.

Li Qiang called for deepening cooperation in industrial and supply chains, leveraging each country's strengths, promoting collaborative interaction, enhancing the division of labor and cooperation, and improving the efficiency of the flow of production factors.

He emphasized that China is ready to work with all parties to implement the statement on further strengthening regional economic and financial cooperation adopted at the meeting and to develop practical cooperation in areas such as finance, trade, and food security, creating new bright spots and growth points in cooperation.

The Premier also called for joint efforts to create new driving forces for development. He stated that it is necessary to strengthen support for scientific and technological innovation, conduct joint research, continuously enhance innovation capacity "from zero to one," and improve the effectiveness of iterations "from one to n" in order to strengthen the role of innovation as a driving force for development.

China is willing to deepen cooperation with all parties in areas such as the digital economy, electric vehicles and clean energy, jointly seizing key development opportunities, Li Qiang added.

Tatyana Golikova spoke at the open discussion "Priority 2030: From a University Idea to Technological Leadership."

Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova spoke at the open discussion "Priority 2030: From University Idea to Technological Leadership." The discussion was held as part of the "Priority – Technological Leadership" conference. Also participating in the event were Minister of Science and Higher Education Valery Falkov, Minister of Transport Andrey Nikitin, Deputy Chairman of the Management Board of Gazprombank Dmitry Zauers, General Director of the Institute of New Carbon Materials and Technologies Viktor Avdeev, and Director of Innovations at EFKO Management Company JSC Rostislav Kovalevsky.

The Priority program, which has been implemented since 2021, is the largest state support program for universities in Russian history. It covers 56 regions and 141 universities. Universities from 15 federal ministries and agencies participate in the program.

Universities affiliated with the Russian Ministry of Health ranked second in terms of number of participants. The "Medicine and Biotechnology" program leads in terms of the number of technology projects announced for implementation, accounting for 22% of the total.

Medical universities participating in the program occupy leading positions, implement technological projects, and already have product results.

Tatyana Golikova recalled that Russia has launched a national project, "New Health-Saving Technologies," which aims to make Russian healthcare 80% technologically independent by 2030.

"It's important for us that universities supported by Priority 2030 and part of the national technological leadership project are not only talent pools. They also serve science and high technology. Synergy between these areas is crucial," she noted.

According to the Deputy Prime Minister, the Russian pharmaceutical market will exceed 1.1 trillion rubles by the end of 2024. Russian-made medicines account for 67% of total sales and 85% of government procurement.

"It's crucial for us to develop innovative drugs and develop our own medical products. Our leading participants in Priority 2030, including Sechenov University, Pirogov University, Samara State Medical University, and Siberian State Medical University, are all proven institutions," the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.

Minister of Education and Science Valery Falkov noted that, starting this year, the Priority program has been reoriented toward fulfilling the national goal set by the Russian President of achieving technological leadership in the country. This has required a complete overhaul of university development programs.

Ultimately, more than 280 strategic technology projects are planned across nine priority technology leadership areas. Gazprombank has become a strategic partner for the program, committing to conducting technological assessments of the university projects.

"The University of Technological Leadership must be an active, full-fledged participant in economic relations," noted Valery Falkov.

Transport Minister Andrey Nikitin spoke about how Priority universities are participating in the development of end-to-end transportation technologies.

"In 2021, when discussions about high-speed rail were just beginning, a cutting-edge engineering school was established at the Russian University of Transport. It focused on high-speed rail and driverless technology. This was a perfect fit—today, this area is the main driver of industry development," emphasized Andrey Nikitin. "The engineering school has become a platform that brings together business, science, applied technology development, and proactive students who want to build their future in high-tech fields. We are actively discussing with the Ministry of Transport how to expand the number of such schools and strengthen our participation in the Priority 2030 program. Understanding the importance of this, we believe it is the best tool for achieving technological leadership and developing industry innovation."

On October 22, the SPbGASU hosted a regional roundtable discussion titled "Economic and Legal Issues of Transforming Public Relations in the Context of Digitalization."

Participants exchanged views on industry-specific issues of legal regulation in the context of digitalization; current trends in the digitalization of civil and arbitration proceedings; and controversial issues related to the application of artificial intelligence in the legal sphere.

Nikolai Zhilsky, Head of the Department of Legal Regulation of Urban Development and Transport at St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering, spoke about the relevance of the roundtable: "Everyone is switching to digital technology now. Public attitudes toward this are mixed, and it's difficult for people to adapt. There's no legal framework, and creating one will take years. This is the topic of our roundtable.

Together with my colleague, Elizaveta Yankovskaya, a lecturer in our department, we prepared a report on the legal framework for the digitalization of insolvency (bankruptcy) procedures for legal entities. On the one hand, digital technologies improve the efficiency, transparency, openness, accessibility, efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and acceleration of bankruptcy procedures. The ability to collaborate remotely is also a major advantage. On the other hand, new risks arise in the areas of cybersecurity, legal compliance, and personal data protection. We wanted to draw the attention of the scientific community to these and other issues related to digital transformation."

Irina Borodushko, Head of the Department of Law at St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering, presented a report titled "A Seamless Digital Sky for Russia: State Policy, Regulatory Framework, and Technologies." She highlighted the challenging aspects of developing unified legal regulation of ground, air, and low-orbit space in the Russian Federation.

Elena Silina, professor of the Department of Civil Procedural Law at the North-West Branch of the V. M. Lebedev Russian State University of Justice, presented a paper entitled "Current Issues and Priority Areas for the Development of Digitalization in Civil and Arbitration Proceedings."

Of particular interest was the report by Valentina Maksimova, a lawyer with the Baltic Interregional Bar Association of St. Petersburg, entitled "The Economic Consequences of Uncontrolled Access to Lawyers' Personal Data in the State Automated Systems "Pravosudie" and "My Arbitrator": Risk Assessment and Development of a Defense Strategy."

Professors from St. Petersburg universities, practicing lawyers, and representatives of organizations in the real sector of the economy participated in the discussion of the regional roundtable discussion "Economic and Legal Issues of Transforming Public Relations in the Context of Digitalization."

Moscow, October 27 (Xinhua) — Two partner Russian Houses will open in Qingdao (Shandong Province, eastern China) and Xi'an (the capital of Shaanxi Province, northwest China). Rossotrudnichestvo Director Yevgeny Primakov signed the corresponding agreements in Moscow on Sunday with representatives of the Chinese companies that partnered with and initiated the opening of the Russian cultural representative offices.

As Yevgeny Primakov noted, partner Russian Houses create platforms for humanitarian cooperation in places where official missions have not yet opened for various reasons. "This is a practical tool of public diplomacy that brings real benefits," he emphasized.

Since 2022, this venue has hosted various events and master classes related to Russia and Russian culture.

"We came here to sign the agreement and continue our public diplomacy activities. We hope to hold many educational and cultural events. Welcome, now, to the Russian House in Qingdao," she said.

The agreement signing ceremony took place as part of the International Cooperation Forum, marking the 100th anniversary of public diplomacy in Russia. It brought together more than 2,000 experts, public figures, and journalists from 100 countries and regions.
