Welcome to join us at the China Daily forum for further discussions.
Indonesia and Malaysia have come a long way from the effects of Western colonialism on their national priorities and international relations, hampering their deserved, and overdue, economic development. China respects the rights of its smaller neighbors to their independence, and the right of their people to peaceful, sustainable development.
The governments of Indonesia and Malaysia have been very understanding of China's own aspirations for peace and development. Brushing aside all unnecessary distractions and puerile provocations, both Malaysia and Indonesia have embraced the model of regional development that China has supported with her own unconditional contributions to ASEAN trade, often giving its members the most preferred terms of bilateral trade that developed countries have refused to grant. Xi makes a historic trip to the land where countless generations of Chinese have emigrated to, settled down, and melded into. But he comes not empty-handed, but instead, full of gifts of trade and investment, which unlike one time aid packages, are gifts that never stop giving.

Xi makes a historic trip to the land where countless generations of Chinese have emigrated to, settled down, and melded into.
ASEAN members take lead from Indonesia being the largest of them all in many ways. China's relationship with it must get better.
