Discussion keeps the world turning.
This is Roundtable.
China's marine economy is a significant and rapidly expanding sector,
playing a vital role in the nation's overall economic development.
Currently, the Ocean Decade International Coastal Cities Conference is being held in Jingdao, China.
Just how important is China's marine economy to the country?
We'll dig into some details after that.
Beijing stands as a testament to the enduring power of history.
A city where millennia of imperial grandeur meet the vibrant pulse of modern life.
From the awe inspiring Forbidden City to the tranquil beauty of the Summer palace,
each corner whispers tales of dynasties past,
while the bustling hutongs and soaring skyscrapers showcase a city constantly evolving.
Today, we learn about what makes China's capital such a wonderful place.
We are live from the capital, from Beijing.
This is Roundtable.
Thank you so much.
