SCO's members will give security a boost

Security cooperation among member countries of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization will be further enhanced to provide a safe environment for regional economic cooperation and development, a senior Chinese public security official said on Friday.

"Thanks to enhanced security cooperation among SCO member countries, the regional social situation has been stable despite the international security situation becoming more complicated in recent years," said Liao Jinrong, head of the International Cooperation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security.

He made the remarks at a news conference in Qingdao, Shandong province, ahead of the 18th SCO Summit.
