Clear planning by Beijing praised in UK

Opinion leaders in the United Kingdom have praised the Chinese government for its clear strategic planning, which they say will lead to success during China's new era of building socialism with Chinese characteristics while comprehensively creating a more prosperous society.

They also lauded China's focus on securing equitable growth and better quality of life for all citizens in its new era, adding that the same ideology also characterizes China's global governance style, which is reflected in policies, including those supporting Beijing's strong commitment to climate change, the opening-up of China's domestic market to foreign companies and the Belt and Road Initiative.

Common to all those policies is an emphasis on bringing prosperity and benefit to all partner countries and encouraging more equal access to resources, said Yu Jie, head of China foresight at LSE Ideas, a foreign policy think tank at the London School of Economics.
