2013年，習近平主席发出“一带一路”重大倡议，为推动构建人类命运共同体注入不竭动力。2018年4月，习主席又在博鳌亚洲论坛上向全世界郑重宣告“中国开放的大门不会关闭、只会越开越大”，倡议各国把“一带一路”打造成为顺应经济全球化潮流的最广泛国际合作平台。2018“一带一路”媒体合作论坛上，大家会聚海南、探讨交流，充分彰显了各国人民推动构建人类命运共同体的强烈意愿，也是“一带一路”强劲生命力的历史见证。

1988年4月，海南建省并成为中国最大的经济特区。2009年底，海南建设国际旅游岛，着力打造世界一流的海岛休闲度假旅游目的地。2013年4月，习近平主席视察海南，要求加快建设经济繁荣、社会文明、生态宜居、人民幸福的美好新海南。经过30年的发展，海南从一个较为封闭落后的边陲岛屿，发展成为中国最开放、最具活力的地区之一。特别是近5年来，海南经济、社会快速发展，生态环境始终保持全国一流，博鳌亚洲论坛等国际交流平台效应扩大，离岛免税、59国入境免签等开放政策落地实施，海南正成为中国对外开放的重要窗口。

2018年是中国改革开放40周年、海南建省办经济特区30周年。4月13日，习近平主席宣布，党中央决定支持海南全岛建设自由贸易试验区，逐步探索、稳步推进中国特色自由贸易港建设，着力打造全面深化改革开放试验区、国家生态文明试验区、国际旅游消费中心、国家重大战略服务保障区，争创新时代中国特色社会主义生动范例，为海南带来了前所未有的重大发展机遇。当前，海南正按照中央决策部署，全面深化改革开放，全力打造我国面向太平洋和印度洋的重要对外开放门户、“一带一路”重要支点。我向大家发出热忱邀请：

第一，共同参与海南自由贸易试验区和中国特色自由贸易港建设。2018年4月，习近平主席向全世界投资者发出了到海南投资兴业的邀请，一批世界知名企业签约落地。希望各国媒体多帮助我们沟通信息、宣介推广。海南将最大限度对接国际规则惯例，强化知识产权保护，加快营造法治化、国际化、便利化的营商环境和公平开放统一高效的市场环境。

第二，共同促进“一带一路”沿线经贸往来。习近平主席要求海南利用建设自由贸易港的契机，加强同“一带一路”沿线国家和地区开展多层次、多领域的务实合作。我们希望与沿线各国和地区加强互联互通，多开通空中、海上航线;加强政策沟通对接，提高双向投资合作的质量和水平;扩宽交流合作领域，建设21世纪海上丝绸之路的文化、教育、农业、旅游等交流平台。

第三，共同打造“一带一路”媒体交流合作重要平台。新闻媒体是文化和友谊的使者，在民心沟通方面作用独特而重要。希望各国媒体借助博鳌亚洲论坛、’“一带一路”媒体合作论坛、海南岛国际电影节等平台，常来常往、交流共鉴、深化合作，共同推动新闻媒体发展繁荣。

In 2013， Chinese President Xi Jinping I put forward the Belt and Road Initiative， injecting inexhaustible vitality into the cause of building a community of shared future formankind. In April 2018 President Xi Jinping made it clear at the Boao Forum for Asia to all that"China's door of opening-up will not be closed and will only open even wider"， and proposed that countries work together in developing theBelt and Road Initiative into a broadest-based international cooperation platform in line with the trend of economic globalization. At the 2018Media Cooperation Forum on Belt and Road， guests from media outlets across the world and international organizations gathered in Hainan and engaged in full exchanges of views. Active participation in the event from global community has fully proven the aspiration of people all over the world for building a community of shared future for mankind and is also a testimony of the enduring appeal of the Belt and Road Initiative.

In April 1988， Hainan was made a separate province and was designated a Special EconomicZone， the largest one in China. In late 2009，Hainan government announced its plan to buildHainan into a world- -class tourist destination. InApril 2013 during his inspection tour to Hainan， President Xi Jinping proposed that pace should be picked up to set Hainan on track towardseconomic prosperity， social development， cultural advance， pollution- free environment and ameliorative well-being. Three decades of development has turned Hainan from the oncebackward and remote island into one of China’s most open and dynamic regions. Over the pastfive years in particular， Hainan has kept breaking new ground in every front. Economic and social development saw a rapid growth; ecological environment held the national lead; a series of intemational exchange platforms represented by the Boao Forum for Asia played an even greater role; a package of pro-opening-up policies including offshore duty- -free shopping and visa- -free access to Hainan for 59 countries was implemented. With these efforts， Hainan is shaping well as an important window for China's opening-up.

The year 2018 marks not only the 40th anniversary of China's reform and opening-up policy but also the 30th anniversary of the establishment of Hainan Special Economic Zone. On April 13， President Xi Jinping pledged the support of the Party Central Committee to Hainan's development. With the aid of the central government， Hainan will build a pilotfree trade zone across the board， explore ways for establishing a free trade port with Chinese characteristics in a stepwise manner and emerge as a pilot zone for deepening the reform and opening-up in an all-round way， a pilot zone for national ecological progress， a consumption center for global tourism and a service base for national major strategies， aiming for a prime example of how to pursue socialism withChinese characteristics in the new era. All willopen up a world of unprecedented opportunities for Hainan's development. Now， in accordance with the master plan of the central government ， Hainan is beefing up efforts in deepening form and opening-up in an all-round way and developing itself into an important gateway in the landscape of China's opening-up towards Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean and a key fulcrum of the China-proposed Belt andRoad Initiative. Let me take this opportunity to sincerely invite all of you to：

Firstly， contribute to building Hainan into a pilot free trade zone and a free trade port withChinese characteristics. Thanks to the promotion of President Xi Jinping in April 2018， Hainan has attracted much attention from global investors， and has become a magnet for a batch of world famous firms which have signed cooperation agreements with Hainan. On the occasion， I call on media outlets present to bring into full play their role and help increase the global visibility of Hainan.On its part， Hainan will also enhance alignment withinternational rules and practices and strengthen property rights protection so as to create a law-based， globalized and facilitated business climate and a famines -based， open-oriented， integrated and high- efficiency market delimit.

Secondly， join each other to facilitate economic and trade exchanges between countries along theBelt and Road routes. President Xi Jinping pointed out that Hainan should press home the rare opportunities presented by the construction of the free trade port and enhance practical cooperation in multiple levels and fronts with countries and regions along the Belt and Road routes. Inresponse to President Xi's proposal， in the future， we will enhance connectivity with countries and regions along the Belt and Road routes by opening more air and sea routes， advance the two -way investment cooperation of higher quality and efficiency by increasing complementarity between development policies of Hainan， China and other countries along the routes， and expand exchange and cooperation fields by building exchange platforms on more fields such as culture， education， agriculture and tourism centered around building the 21st-Century Maritime SilkRoad.

Thirdly， team up with each other to establish a significant platform for media exchange and cooperation on the Belt and Road Initiative. Asa messenger of culture and friendship， media is in a unique and important position to advance people- -to- people exchanges all over the world.Therefore， we hope that the Boao Forum forAsia， the Media Cooperation Forum on Belt and Road， the Hainan Island International FilmFestival and other Hainan-hosted platforms will enhance mutual exchanges， reciprocal learning and deepened cooperation between global media outlets， in a bid to boom the global media with concerted efforts.
