Lu's speech at the opening ceremony of China-ASEAN Information Harbor Forum

Fourth, sharing good high-quality Internet culture. Chinese President Xi said the development of relations among different nations relies on the connection of the heart and will of the people in the final analysis. TV drama series from Thailand, which are popular on the Chinese Internet, let Chinese people feel the joys and sorrows of people from ASEAN countries. And the socializing app launched by Chinese Internet giant Tencent in Vietnam has also become popular among Vietnamese users. Partnering with ASEAN countries, we'd like to pool our great digital productions, including gaming, anime, TV, movie, literature and knowledge resources, to build online platforms of communication and copy right and explore new channels of cultural exchanges between China and ASEAN countries. This will help realize the goal of making the Internet a new bond of public sentiment convergence and friendship between people from the two sides.

Fifth, sharing the experience on network administration. Countries have different national conditions and the development of their Internet industry is at different stages, so they also differ in cyberspace administration models and approaches. However, confronting common challenges from cyberspace, China and ASEAN have increasingly become a community of common destiny sharing the weal and woes and we must jointly address the challenges. Together with the ASEAN countries, we're willing to improve our cooperation mechanism, conduct dialogue and communication, learn from each other, share the experiences and successes in cyberspace administration, respect each country's Internet sovereignty and safeguard cyberspace security. We must also resolutely crack down on online terrorism and crimes, and protect personal privacy and information security to promote the establishment of a multilateral, democratic and transparent international Internet governance system and jointly create a peaceful, safe, open and cooperative cyberspace.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Go with the tide of "Internet Plus". China-ASEAN Information Harbor is riding the waves of the One Belt and One Road initiative with a number of projects underway. As long as we make concerted efforts, address the challenges with courage and confidence, deepen consensus continuously, and seize the opportunity, we will embrace a bright future for China-ASEAN cooperation and development.

Thank you.
