China-ASEAN Center Secretary-General highlights agricultural cooperation and regional food security

In an exclusive interview, Zhang Lizhong, Secretary-General of the China-ASEAN Center, emphasized the deep-rooted commitment to pragmatic agricultural cooperation aimed at building a robust regional food security shield. Highlighting recent collaborative milestones, Zhang noted that agricultural partnerships between China and ASEAN member states are rapidly evolving toward ‘digital intelligence’ and integrated, full-chain ecological development. This strategic upgrade comes as various regional forums and agricultural expos—such as the recent international agricultural cooperation exposition held in Henan—continue to foster cross-border trade, technological exchange, and sustainable farming practices. By overcoming geographical and logistical boundaries, these initiatives demonstrate a shared dedication to enhancing agricultural productivity, stabilizing food supply chains, and ensuring long-term prosperity and food security across the entire Southeast Asian and Chinese regional economic landscape.
