China's all-inclusive vision for boosting global growth

Defending globalization at the World Economic Forum in January, President Xi Jinping accentuated that the Belt and Road Initiative, which he proposed in 2013, is China's answer to problems frustrating globalization.

And in the Government Work Report he delivered last Sunday and approved by the top legislature on Wednesday, Premier Li Keqiang highlighted the initiative as a strategic move toward building a more open global economy.

Li again cited the initiative to illustrate the country's commitment to greater openness while addressing the media at the close of the fifth plenary session of the 12th National People's Congress on Wednesday.
