These include hosting a successful APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting in November, remaining deeply engaged in UN reform, and strengthening the role of the Group of Friends of Global Governance.  China will also promote the full and effective implementation of the the Agreement under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea on the Conservation and Sustainable Use of Marine Biological Diversity of Areas beyond National Jurisdiction, and work to recalibrate global human rights governance, Wang said. Furthermore, China is issuing a Position Paper on Strengthening Outer Space Governance and a Progress Report on the AI Capacity-Building Action Plan for Good and for All, and will establish a Global Governance Research Center, he said.  Following the opening, international guests visited Xiong'an New Area to see the development of the city.  At the Smart City Innovation Center, they learned about the city's construction and experienced cutting-edge technology application scenarios.  Guests said they were impressed by the city's level of innovation and called for cooperation on governance.  "This particular city has shown that it is possible for creativity to go very high up. So I'm sure it's going to impress lots of other cities in the world," said Imtiaz Ahmed, executive director of the Center for Alternatives in Bangladesh. "I think it is the time that we need cooperation more than ever, particularly within the Global South. I'm hoping this kind of forum creates dialog and opportunities for cooperation," said Carlos Oya, a professor for political economy of development at SOAS University of London. Since its establishment in 2017, Xiong'an New Area has been transformed from a blueprint into a rapidly growing modern city. Under its planning framework, the area has prioritized the relocation of non-capital functions from Beijing. Central state-owned enterprises have set up more than 400 institutions in Xiong'an, while the number of Beijing administrative service items that can be handled directly in Xiong'an has been expanded to 625.  Connectivity will be further enhanced. The 86-kilometer Beijing-Xiong'an Express Line has begun full-line trial operations and is expected to connect with the Beijing Daxing Airport Express this year.  English/Nats/Part Mute Xiong'an New Area, Hebei Province, north China - Oct 23, 2026 (CCTV - No access Chinese mainland) 1.
