An undergraduate seminar will give students the opportunity to understand the impact of BRI - through expert speakers and field visits to Huawei, CICT, and Port City Colombo. Students can see the relationship first-hand and form their own judgement on what BRI brings to Sri Lanka.

#Opinion: The message from the 18th #BRICS Summit reinforces the distinction that reform is not replacement, choice is not confrontation, and strategic autonomy is not hostility. Labeling BRICS simply as anti-Western misunderstands one of its central attractions. Many of its mem-bers are not searching for a new bloc to join; instead, they are seeking greater freedom from the expectation that they must belong exclusively to any bloc at all.

I had the honor of meeting @FazeelNajeeb from @MDVinChina and engaging in a meaningful discussion on Maldives–Sri Lanka–China relations in the #IndianOcean.
I reiterate that the #Maldives is Sri Lanka’s foremost and number one ally. 🇲🇻🇱🇰🇨🇳

China’s enormous domestic market can serve its own consumers while simultaneously creating opportunities for producers elsewhere.

#APEC is the top event China is hosting in 2026, and could signal greater cooperation. Xi’s U.S. visit will likely focus on easing tensions, while he is expected to confirm his India visit for BRICS, alongside a massive Chinese business delegation.
@YRanaraja: APEC Economies meeting in Shenzhen comes at a very critical time, there is room for strengthening regional cooperation. news.cgtn.com/news/2026-09-0…

China has initiated two key global organizations: the World Artificial Intelligence Cooperation Organization (WAICO) , established in Shanghai in July 2026 with 29 founding members, and the International Organization for Mediation (IOMed) , headquartered in Hong Kong and launched in May 2025 with 32-33 signatory states. Both fill critical gaps in the global governance system—WAICO addresses the lack of coordinated AI regulation, while IOMed is the world's first intergovernmental body dedicated exclusively to international dispute mediation.
@YRanaraja 亚西鲁·拉纳拉贾：应对诸多全球性挑战 中国正展现大国领导力
中国新闻网 2026-09-05
亚太媒体高端论坛在广东深圳举行。斯里兰卡一带一路信息网董事长亚西鲁·拉纳拉贾在采访中表示，应对当今世界面临的诸多挑战，国际社会正在寻求全球领导力。所以我认为在许多领域，中国正在展现其领导力，因为中国也是一个逐步崭露头角的大国、强国.举例来说，比如提议建立的世界人工智能组织，以及中国倡导成立的世界调解组织等；全球体系当中缺失的各类组织机制，正由中国按照自身的节奏与框架加以填补和完善。这也正是全世界所期待看到的——看中国未来如何应对这些全球性议题。(范思忆 王庆然 制作 侯诗蕊) @Echinanews

As the SCO meets in Bishkek, a deeper story is unfolding: the Global South seeks not just a seat at the table where the fundamental rules had already been written – but wants a voice in writing the rules. @MayaMajueran
The SCO's appeal lies in its principles: sovereignty, mutual respect, consultation, non-interference, and recognition that countries with different political systems and economic models can nevertheless cooperate.
After all, a multipolar order should not mean replacing one center of dominance with another. It should mean more choices, diversified finance, and development based on mutual benefit – not hierarchy. Read the full article: 👉l1nq.com/rfcn458

Due to colonial past, mistrust among Asian nations is the core challenge we need to address. India struggles to engage Pakistan, Thailand and Cambodia face tensions, and engagement with China often triggers India’s national-security concerns and none can operate without U.S. diplomacy.
That’s why the Silk Road needs its own shared values built on trust, sovereignty, connectivity and mutual prosperity.
What’s the single biggest challenge for Asia? @YRanaraja from @BRI_SL highlights on @CGTNOfficial

I was pleased to receive H.E. Wei Huaxiang, Ambassador of the People’s Republic of China to Sri Lanka, for a courtesy call this morning, following the presentation of his credentials.
Our discussions focused on the longstanding friendship between our two countries and means of further strengthening bilateral relations across a multitude of areas. I wished ambassador Wei a successful tenure in Sri Lanka!

The global perception landscape is changing. For decades, the United States occupied a dominant position in international public opinion. The latest Pew Research Center survey, however, points to a notable turning point: for the first time in more than two decades, China is viewed more favorably than the United States across a larger number of countries, a Sri Lankan expert wrote in a column xhtxs.cn/becz
