Close ties were established through trade activities. From the late Ming Dynasty to the Republic of China, a large number of Chinese went to Southeast Asia and spread across ASEAN countries, further promoting the integrated development and inclusive symbiosis of Chinese culture and local culture. After the founding of New China, both sides advocated the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence and the “Bandung Spirit” and firmly safeguarded regional peace and stability. Since the launch of the dialogue relationship in 1991, we have sought common ground while reserving differences and moved forward hand in hand, setting a model for regional common development and win-win cooperation. Especially in 2013, President Xi Jinping proposed building a closer China-ASEAN community with a shared future. Over the past 10 years, countries have maintained close relations and people have been close to each other. ASEAN has surpassed the EU to become China’s largest trading partner, while China has been China’s largest trading partner for 12 consecutive years since 2009.
