Since taking office as Maltese ambassador to China in January last year, John Busuttil has been closely following China's development. Traveling around the country, Busuttil said he was very impressed by what is going on in the Chinese economy despite the sluggish global economic recovery.
The key messages he read from the resolution adopted by last week's third plenary session of the 20th Communist Party of China Central Committee have assured him of the opportunities the country's growth will bring to Malta.
"New quality productive forces, Chinese modernization and openness — these words are very important," Busuttil said in an interview with Chinese media on Friday. "When the Chinese economy does well, the global economy will do well, too."
He commended China's commitment to expanding opening-up.
"Malta is part of the European Union. Engagement with China remains very important for Europe. We need to make efforts to engage with globalization. That's very important for Europe, and for the whole world."
Like Busuttil, many foreign diplomatic envoys in China hailed China's commitment to further deepening reform and opening-up as they attended a briefing on Friday on the third plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Committee.
During the event organized by the International Department of the CPC Central Committee in Beijing, they said that the landmark Party meeting, which was held from July 15 to 18, has worked out a blueprint for China's steady development in the coming years, which, in turn, will create opportunities for the rest of the world.
Belarusian Ambassador to China Aleksandr Chervyakov said that the resolution of the third plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Committee has provided a signal of continued stability and economic development in China — a crucial signal not only for China itself, but also for the world.
"China ranks as one of the world's great powers in terms of purchasing power. Therefore, how China develops and in which directions it progresses are vital signals for the global community," Chervyakov said.
He added that China's leadership in the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative, the Global Civilization Initiative and the Belt and Road Initiative, is very important.
Egyptian Ambassador to China Assem Hanafi said that he was greatly impressed by China's emphasis on institutional reform in promoting its overall development.
"I believe these measures represent a continuation of the reform and opening-up policies first introduced in the 1970s in China, demonstrating both continuity and innovation," he said.
