Real progress, he says, begins when cities compare, reflect, and make sure no one is left behind.

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi called for a new narrative for the South China Sea in Kuala Lumpur on Saturday, expressing hope that the once-contested waters will come to represent cooperation, stability, and friendship in the future. Discussions on the South China Sea at this year's ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) Plus Foreign Ministers' Meetings reflected a notable shift in tone, with greater confidence injected into the dialogue. Wang attributed this positive momentum to the joint efforts between China and ASEAN countries.
