Based on the principle of collaboration, China and ASEAN have worked to align the former's Belt and Road Initiative with the latter's development plans. Connectivity projects include the China-Laos railway, the China-Thailand high-speed railway, and Indonesia's Jakarta-Bandung high-speed railway.
China and ASEAN are firmly committed to good-neighborliness and friendship while enhancing political and security ties to create stability across the Asia-Pacific, according to Xinhua.
