过去10年，亚洲作为亚太地区的重要组成部分取得快速发展，成为增长最快、最富活力的地区之一，引领世界经济增长的引擎作用日益突出。亚洲国家面对两场金融危机，团结自强、通力合作，主要依靠自身力量，不仅维护了经济稳定，也为未来发展打下了更加坚实的基础。在应对危机的过程中，亚洲国家总结出的一条宝贵经验就是立足自身国情，探索适合自己的发展道路，着力提升经济增长的内生动力。与此同时，亚洲秉承开放精神，积极扩大与欧洲、非洲、北美、拉美等地区的务实合作，加快自贸区建设步伐，迎来了新的发展和跨越。
In the past ten years, Asia, an important part of the Asia-Pacific region, has achieved fast growth. It has become one of the fastest growing and most dynamic regions and played a bigger role in powering world economic growth. During the two financial crises, Asian countries united as one for greater strength. Relying mainly on their own efforts, they have not only maintained economic stability, but also laid a more solid foundation for future development. Asian countries have learned one valuable thing from tackling the crises: we need to explore development paths suited to ourselves and enhance domestic sources of economic growth in light of our own national circumstances. At the same time, Asia has adopted an open approach. It has actively expanded practical cooperation with Europe, Africa, North America and Latin America and speeded up the building of free trade areas. As a result, it has achieved fresh progress and leapfrog development.

对于亚洲的发展，我想用三个“50%”来说明：一是亚洲整体经济实力明显增强。19世纪，亚洲GDP曾占全球的一半，此后一度衰落。20世纪以来，亚洲国家励精图治、奋起直追，重返经济发展的快车道。2009年亚洲国家经济总量已占世界的近1/3 ，据一些国际权威经济组织预测，到本世纪中叶，亚洲将重新占据世界经济的50%。二是东亚经济一体化进程不断加快。早在五年前，东亚区内贸易总额就已接近3万亿美元，占其外贸总额的比重超过50%。东亚区域合作更是取得长足进展，东盟、10+1、10+3、中日韩、东亚峰会等各种机制日益完善，形成了优势互补、协调并进的良好局面。三是亚洲国家人文科技等领域潜力巨大，软实力不断增强，为亚洲可持续发展提供了有力支撑。据联合国教科文组织最新公布的数字，亚洲科研人员数量在全球所占比例已由2002年的35.7%增加到2007年的41.4%，这一数字很可能在未来数年里提高到50%。一个生机勃勃、和平发展的亚洲日益呈现在世人面前。
I wish to illustrate Asia's development with three "fifty-percents". First, Asia's overall economic strength has grown remarkably. Asia's GDP accounted for 50% of the world's total in the 19th century and had since gone downhill. Starting from the 20th century, Asian countries have made unyielding efforts to catch up and return to the fast track of economic development. In 2009, Asia's overall economy accounted for nearly one third of the world economy. Some authoritative international economic organizations have made the forecast that by the middle of this century, Asia will once again take up 50% of the world economy. Second, economic integration of East Asia is moving faster. Five years ago, intra-regional trade in East Asia already totaled almost three trillion US dollars, making up more than 50% of the region's total foreign trade. East Asia regional cooperation has made tremendous achievements. ASEAN, 10+1, 10+3, China, Japan and the ROK, East Asia Summit and other mechanisms have continued to improve. It is gratifying to note that these mechanisms are drawing on each other's strengths and moving forward in parallel. Third, Asian countries have great potential in human resources, culture, science and technology and their soft power continues to strengthen. This has offered strong backing for Asia's sustainable development. According to the latest figures of UNESCO, Asia had 41.4% of the world's scientific researchers in 2007, up from 35.7% in 2002. And the figure is very likely to further increase to 50% in the coming years. In short, we are seeing before us a thriving Asia enjoying peaceful development.

——中国与亚太关系从未象今天这样紧密。
China's relationship with the Asia Pacific has never been closer.

过去10年，中国与亚太的发展相伴相随、相互促进，共同开启了亚太发展的新时期。中国作为亚太大家庭的一员，与各国共同肩负着维护本地区繁荣稳定的重要使命。我们深知，没有良好的地区环境，中国就难以实现可持续发展；同时中国的发展也为亚太地区的发展注入强大动力。中国坚持和平发展道路和互利共赢的开放战略，奉行“与邻为善、以邻为伴”的睦邻友好政策，愿在和平共处五项原则的基础上与所有国家开展友好合作，共同营造一个和平稳定、平等互信、合作共赢的地区环境。中国与周边国家不仅有源远流长的传统友好的基础，更有日益增长的共同利益。经过十年的不懈努力，中国与亚太国家的互信在共度危机中更加深入人心，互利合作在借重互鉴中持续全面发展，各领域合作取得新的重要进展：
In the past ten years, China and the rest of the Asia Pacific have grown together and supported each other's development. Together, we have opened a new era of development in this part of the world. As a member of the Asia-Pacific community, China and other countries in the region shoulder the important mission of promoting regional prosperity and stability. We are keenly aware that without a sound regional environment, China can hardly achieve sustainable development. At the same time, China's development is a strong boost to the development of the Asia Pacific. China is committed to the path of peaceful development and the mutually beneficial strategy of opening up. China pursues a policy of developing good-neighborly ties and partnerships with its neighbors. China wants to engage in friendly cooperation with all countries on the basis of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, in a joint endeavor to build a regional environment featuring peace and stability, equality and mutual trust, cooperation and win-win outcomes. Relations between China and its neighboring countries are anchored not only in time-honored traditional friendship, but also growing common interests. By countering crises together, China and other Asia-Pacific countries have fostered deeper mutual trust in the last ten years. By drawing on each other's strengths, we have enhanced mutually beneficial cooperation in a comprehensive way. Indeed, we have made fresh and important headway in our cooperation across the board.

中国同亚太各国政治交往日益密切，建立了不同形式的伙伴关系，政治对话成果丰富。今年我们同几乎所有亚洲国家都实现了高层互访和交流，累计超过60起，来华出席上海世博会、广州亚运会的亚洲国家政要接近50位。各部门、各层次的交流对话也已全面展开。
China's exchanges with other Asia-Pacific countries in the political field have become closer. We have established various forms of partnership and conducted fruitful political dialogue. This year alone, we have had over 60 high-level mutual visits and exchanges with Asian countries, involving almost all the countries in the region. Nearly 50 Asian political leaders came to China for the Shanghai World Expo and the Guangzhou Asian Games. Departments at various levels have engaged in extensive exchanges and dialogue with their Asian counterparts.
