Kathmandu Hosts International Symposium on Global South and China's Governance

Kathmandu. A new concept of President Xi Jinping regarding the Global South and China's governance system was brainstormed in Kathmandu. Experts from Nepal, India, China, Bhutan, and Bangladesh presented their views at an international symposium organized by Friends on Cloud in Kathmandu.

At the program, speakers presented their views on President Xi's global governance system and initiatives, its impact, and the recently changed global power balance.

Cloud Chairman Shobhit Upreti, Economist Dr. Sudhan Oli, Cloud Program Coordinator Manisha Shrestha, former Bhutanese Minister Karma Dorji, Bangladeshi leader Dr. Belal Hossain, and Indian foreign affairs expert and professor Dr. Renu Rana presented their views.

President Xi has been describing the 'Global South' (a group of developing and emerging nations) as an important force for global development and the international order.

The Global South is an important force for maintaining world peace, advancing common development, and reforming the international order.

It emphasizes that developing countries must strengthen their own voices and receive equal rights in the global governance system.

There is a view that no country should be deprived of the right to development, and all nations should get equal opportunities.

This concept indicates that China is always ready to cooperate with Global South countries in development, infrastructure, technology, and poverty reduction. Similarly, the Global South is considered to play a decisive role in building a multipolar world and a just international order.
