Attracting more than 60 representatives from China and Myanmar, the conference aims to pool wisdom from both their peoples for win-win development.

The relations between China and Myanmar stand at a new historic starting point, so the two nations should expand targeted cooperation and exchanges in various areas including government, political parties, NGOs, business circles and the media, based on their own demands and visions, said Li Jinjun, vice-minister of the International Department of the CPC Central Committee.

China and Myanmar will follow the path of reform and development chosen by their own peoples, thus bringing benefits to both sides and growing to be each other's capable and friendly neighbors and brothers, said Li who is also executive vice president of the China NGO Network for International Exchanges.

Li's remarks were echoed by Ko Ko Hlaing, chief political advisor in the Myanmar President's Office.

The bilateral exchanges between Myanmar and China should include not only governmental representatives, but also civil society, the media and political parties, said Ko Ko Hlaing.

"The round-table is an important first step to further advance our bilateral ties, and I hope there will be regular mechanisms for us to meet in the future," added Ko Ko Hlaing.
