A promotional event for the English edition of the fifth volume of "Xi Jinping: The Governance of China" was held in Jakarta, Indonesia on Tuesday.

Participants at the event said the fifth volume reflects the latest achievements in the development of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era and serves as an authoritative work for the international community to understand contemporary China.

China has embarked on a new journey under its 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-2030), while Indonesia is steadily advancing toward its Golden Indonesia 2045 vision. By strengthening strategic synergy and deepening development cooperation, the two countries will not only deliver tangible benefits to their people, but also inject strong momentum into the growth of the Global South and the improvement of the global governance system, they said.

At the event, the Chinese side presented copies of the book to Indonesian guests.

Experts and scholars exchanged views on topics including opportunities under China's 15th Five-Year Plan, common modernization and poverty alleviation experience.

Representatives from a training program for Indonesian village officials shared their experiences of studying and engaging in exchanges in China, as well as how they have applied what they learned from China to village governance.

The event was jointly organized by the State Council Information Office of China, the China International Communications Group, and the Chinese Embassy in Indonesia.

About 200 participants from China and Indonesia, including representatives from the publishing sector, think tanks and media, attended the event.

The Bank of Japan (BOJ) slashed Japan's economic growth forecast for fiscal year 2026 to 0.5 percent, half of the 1.0 percent projection it made in January, according to its latest Economic and Price Outlook report released on Tuesday.

At the same time, the central bank raised its core consumer price index (CPI) inflation forecast, excluding fresh food, for fiscal year 2026 from 1.9 to 2.8 percent.

The BOJ also announced the same day that it would keep its policy rate unchanged at around 0.75 percent.

The decision came as the bank noted that escalating tensions in the Middle East have driven up international oil prices, and the impact on Japan's economy still requires further monitoring.
