In the globalization process, which Tang said has both advantages and disadvantages for his country, China will carefully and properly handle three sets of relationships: firstly, the relationship between participation in the globalization process and independent development, secondly, the relationship between participation in the process and maintenance of national interests, and thirdly, the relationship between participation in the process and safeguarding China's economic security. In short, Tang told his counterparts from the ASEAN+10 that China stands "ready to work with the people of other Asian countries to meet the challenges of globalization and constantly advance the development, progress and civilization of humanity."
