Chinese President Xi Jinping announced plans to host three high-profile Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) forums during the 'SCO Plus' meeting in Tianjin this week. The events will focus on political collaboration, green development, and traditional medicine – hot topics for young global citizens tracking sustainability and cross-border partnerships. 🎯
In a move that's got everyone talking, Xi revealed a five-year health initiative to support SCO members:
- 💓 500 congenital heart disease treatments
- 👁️ 5,000 cataract surgeries
- 🩺 10,000 cancer screenings
This health diplomacy push comes as China strengthens its role in Eurasian cooperation. For students and professionals watching Asia's soft power play, these forums could become key platforms for shaping regional policies on climate action and healthcare innovation. 🌱
