Hailing the media as a window to the world, president of the People's Daily Yang Zhenwu called on media from the ASEAN nations, China, Japan and the ROK to play a guiding role in cultivating cooperation between these countries, commonly known as 10+3 cooperation.
Yang made the remarks at the 8th 10+3 Media Cooperation Forum Commentators' Dialogue, held in Beijing on July 25. Yang praised the forum for being an influential platform of media cooperation. Through objective reports and rational commentary, he said that media organizations can act as constructors of ideas and guides of public opinion.
Yang also hailed the commentators' dialogue as a highlight of this year’s forum, noting that, as commentary forms a core component of mainstream media, the exchange of ideas between commentators from various parties can pool more wisdom together.
Yang also gave specific suggestions on how to improve commentary. According to Yang, when giving commentary, media outlets should encourage peaceful development, stick to the correct ideas about morals and profit, advocate for modern international relations, emphasize a community of shared destiny and interests, and promote a just system of international order and global governance.
Calling on the media to provide positive energy for the peaceful development of international relations, Yang pointed out that media should place more emphasis on the common interests of all sides than on their divergences. He also said that the media should offer down-to-earth, objective commentary on sensitive topics and disputes.
All media should join together to build the 10+3 cooperation into a platform of equality and common development, he said at last.
