Chinese Vice President Han Zheng met with heads of foreign delegations attending the 20th meeting of the Security Council Secretaries of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Member States in Beijing on Tuesday.

Han said that the Global Security Initiative proposed by Chinese President Xi Jinping, which advocates a vision of common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable security, has gained extensive recognition and support from more and more countries.

China stands ready to work with other member states of the SCO to uphold multilateralism for lasting security, adhere to the spirit of the rule of law for mutual benefit and win-win results, uphold equality and solidarity to pursue common governance, enhance cooperation and capacity building, and give further play to the role of the SCO in maintaining security and stability in a world fraught with uncertainties and instabilities, said Han.

Kazakh Security Council Secretary Gizat Nurdauletov and Belarusian Security Council State Secretary Alexander Volfovich said they highly appreciate China's important role as the rotating chair of the SCO and show their willingness to cooperate in addressing security challenges.

Established in 2001, the SCO is a regional political, economic and security organization that groups China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, India, Pakistan, Iran and Belarus as full members.

China's smart consumer device industry sees rapid growth amid policy boost

China's smart consumer device manufacturing sector has seen rapid growth this year, fueled by a government-backed trade-in program and the expansion of diversified consumption scenarios.

From January to May, the country's electronic information manufacturing industry maintained strong momentum, with total revenue of enterprises above the designated size reaching 6.49 trillion yuan (some 900 billion U.S. dollars), up 9.4 percent year on year.

Production of electronic consumer goods recorded steady increases. Over 140 million computers were produced during the period, up 8 percent from a year earlier, while 14.04 million television units rolled off assembly lines, up 1.7 percent year on year.

"Consumption scenarios are becoming more diversified. On the demand side, new smart products are quickly entering the market, opening up emerging markets in home services, health management, and beyond. On the supply side, the industry is clearly moving toward transformation and upgrading, with new growth drivers accelerating," said Zuo Kairui, director of the Industry Development Department of the Institute of Policy and Economics at the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology.

Looking ahead to the second half of the year, China plans to go on promoting its "AI plus consumer goods" initiative, encouraging the development and application of new technologies such as smart wearables, ultra-high-definition video, brain-computer interfaces, and robotics.

Meanwhile, authorities will continue to foster high-growth consumer sectors and guide the smart device industry toward greener, more service-oriented development.
