China pledges more efforts to promote int’l law in Asia – People’s Daily Online

BEIJING, Aug. 27 (Xinhua) — State Councilor Dai Bingguo said Saturday that China was ready to work with other Asian countries for the development of international law in Asia.

Dai made the remarks when addressing an opening ceremony of a conference of the Asian Society of International Law.

He said peace, development and cooperation had become the irreversible trend of the times, and under such circumstances, international law had “room to thrive and a bigger role to play.”

“Though countries emphasize the importance of international law in the maintenance of world peace, violations of all kinds are still happening each day,” Dai noted.

“As China pursues peaceful development, it has, at the same time, embarked on a journey of solidarity with other Asian countries,” he said.
