People from Eurasian countries are eager to learn about China's moves to build the Silk Road Economic Belt, and meeting that demand requires more objective media coverage, both within and outside of China.
Eurasian media representatives made this assertion on Sunday during a forum in Urumqi, capital of the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region.
Kyrgyz people know about President Xi Jinping's proposal to build the Silk Road Economic Belt, which aims to revitalize the ancient Silk Road by deepening mutually beneficial cooperation among Central Asian countries, but they know little about the plan's mechanism and agenda, said Kubanychbek Taabaldiev, director of Kyrgyzstan's Kabar National News Agency.
