【明報專訊】TODAY (May 15) the curtain comes down on the first China-hosted "Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation". Over the past two days, more than a thousand guests including heads of state or government of twenty-nine countries have gathered together in Beijing and witnessed there a major diplomatic show China has put up on its home turf. As the US, Japan and North Korea, which once were cold towards the "one belt, one road" (OBOR) proposal, are represented at the summit, one may say it is to China a diplomatic bumper harvest and regard it as that which symbolises the country's leadership in new economic globalisation. The summit has proved successful. That has clearly raised China's confidence in pursuing the OBOR strategy.
