–How could you assess the importance of the China’s “One Belt, One Road” policy, which is considered greatest economic and transportation project in the development of Asian countries?
- China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is an extension of China’s development policy to include its neighbors and the world in general. It is based on the construction of infrastructure projects that enhance trade and connectivity. The purpose is to help develop emerging markets in a sustainable fashion, allowing the countries involved to modernize and alleviate poverty along lines similar to China’s developmental program that has lifted 700 million people out of poverty and created a modern infrastructure consisting of transportation networks (high-speed rail and highway networks), ultra-high-voltage electricity transmission, alternative energy sources, and expanded internet connectivity (e-commerce, 5G networks), coupled with financing institutions such as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB).
