The forum, with the theme "An Uncertain World: Joining Hands and Embracing Challenges, Opening up and Inclusive for Common Development," invited more than 2,000 guests from over 50 countries and regions to analyze the situation in Asia and the world and to build a consensus for cooperation and development.
