全文如下：

各位领导、各位青年伙伴：

大家下午好！

我很荣幸代表我的祖国巴基斯坦在这样一个人才济济的盛会上发言。在世界经历巨大转变，在全球疫情、地缘政治和贸易调整的背景下，在这样的关键时期，仍能召开亚洲青年领袖论坛，我衷心祝贺主办方。面临这些难以应付的挑战，举办这次论坛当然不是一件简单的事情。我代表所有在座的青年，向所有主办方的领导和组织者表示衷心的祝贺。

我本人在中国生活了很久，见证了中国的发展。公正地说，有抱负的中国人民在有远见卓识的中国共产党的领导下团结一心，勇敢抗击新冠肺炎疫情，为像我这样的外国人提供了有利的环境，展示了他们在促进全球社会经济更大发展方面的才能。谢谢中国在抗击新冠肺炎疫情上所做的努力，为世界各国提供了借鉴经验，谢谢中国对外国青年人才的培养。

各位领导、各位朋友：

中国和中国人民展现出的领导力不仅在促进邻近国家和许多相隔遥远的国家的发展上发挥了关键作用。“一带一路”倡议就是一个鲜活的例子。这个倡议并不仅仅是传统意义上的一项基础设施发展项目和一次商业投资。这个倡议将在很大规模上为促进多方面的跨越国界的文化、社会经济交流以及合作打下坚实的基础。今天论坛的主题是关于中国的友好雄心的另一个具体表现。论坛呼吁亚洲青年建设强大的合作桥梁。毫无疑问，现在的亚洲青年具备充分的智慧，通过成为积极的合作伙伴，让亚洲成为世界创新、创意、智慧和探索未知的中心。

各位领导：

中国全国人民代表大会最近批准了第十四个五年规划。这个规划包含了关于推动“一带一路”高质量发展的内容，特别强调了“一带一路”沿线国家在人力资源开发上的国际合作，体现在以下方面：

一、发展城市间、城市内和自由空间的通信网络的量子信息；

二、开发类脑运算以及脑机融合技术的脑科学；

三、光子学、微电子学和纳米电子学；

四、网络通信；

五、人工智能；

六、生物技术；

七、航空航天科学；

八、现代能源体系。

这些会在2025年之前施行的项目，为亚洲青年在这些领域快速开展合作，为实现使亚洲发展成为世界未来科技的中心，提供了大量的机会。

女士们、先生们：

我们环球英才交流促进会正努力使我们的国际合作和中国全国人大第十四个五年规划实现协同。在过去两年，在我们与俄罗斯工程院的合作安排下，我们已经成立了三个俄罗斯工程院中国中心，分别在北京、苏州和台州。在深圳、武汉、天津和济南，另外4个类似中心的设立，已经进入收尾阶段。这些新成立的英才中心将作为两友好国的院士和学生之间分享4G技术相关的知识、技能和专业技术的桥梁。

我们已经和巴基斯坦一所顶尖大学达成了战略联盟协议，促进两国整合大学、专业委员会、协会以及高科技产业资源。通过开展专门的训练、工作坊、研讨会、分享知识和经验，在新兴技术方面开展联合研究，在巴基斯坦建立研发和创新实验室，涉及的技术领域包括工业自动化、人工智能、软件工程、生物医学、建筑和土木工程、汽车工程、服装设计、纺织工程以及海洋产业。

我们已经开始和中国以及巴基斯坦两国政府的相关机构商议在巴基斯坦建职业大学，每年为区域内和“一带一路”沿线国家的5000名学生提供4G技术的培训，让他们获得相关职业技能证书。我们急需这样的大学来培养有资质的高科技专业人才，为多样化的、宏大的“一带一路”工程贡献他们的力量。

我们促进了超过100名优秀的巴基斯坦学生进入中国不同的大学攻读硕士学位、博士学位及从事博士后研究，进一步促进了两个亲如兄弟的国家之间的科技和教育合作，是对两国政府所做努力的补充。

我们促进了16名巴基斯坦学生在广西职业技术学院进行为期三年的汽车工程职业培训，为巴基斯坦在建的中国汽车产业储备人才。此外，每年将会有100名巴基斯坦学生在取消旅行限制之后到威海职业学院参加职业培训。

我们为超过2000名巴基斯坦专业人员和学生开展了关于工业自动化的在线职业认证培训。我们正在准备为所有上海合作组织成员国提供关于人工智能的在线职业认证培训。

我们成立了多个亚洲国家和俄罗斯的社区团体，成员包括1000多名在职专业人员和学生，以融合多样的文化，促进在新兴技术领域研发上的合作精神。

各位领导：

我不是一名专业的演讲者，也不是一个有着非凡才能的人。我们的工作才刚刚起步，还有很长的路要走。中国有一句谚语：“不下汪洋海，难得夜明珠。”我们还坚信通过真诚努力，支持和巩固国际合作，能够促进各国进步和繁荣，为我们的后代留下一个值得爱的、宜居的世界。

最后，我要再次向这次论坛的所有领导和组织者表示诚挚的感谢。感谢各位的细心安排，感谢各位为我们提供了一个在这个盛会上发言的机会。

亚洲万岁！中国万岁！谢谢！


On 28 November, Ammar Muhammad, Secretary General of the Special Committee of International Students of Beijing Global Talent Exchange Association and Director of Government Affairs of Global Talent Network (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd., delivered his remarks at the Closing Ceremony of the Asia Youth Leaders Forum 2021.

The full speech is as below.

Excellencies and my fellow friends,
Very good afternoon.

I am very pleased and honored to represent my home country - Pakistan and speak to such a star-studded august gathering.

Secondly, I sincerely congratulate all the hosts for convening the Asia Youth Leaders Forum at this critical juncture when the world is witnessing dramatic transformation in the arena of global pandemic, geo-politics, and trade re-alignments. Despite these formidable challenges, holding this forum is certainly not a meagre task. Therefore, on behalf of all the youth in the audience, I present heartfelt felicitations to all the worthy host leaders and organizers.

Thirdly, being eyewitness resident of China for a very long period of time, I will not do justice to myself if I fail to mention the aspiring Chinese people and visionary CPC leadership for bravely fighting Covid 19 as one united nation and providing conducive environment to foreigners like me to showcase their talent for greaterglobal social economic developments. Thank you, China, for showing the way and leading the world in catching natural Covid-19 pandemic from its horn, and thank you, China, for nurturing the young foreign talents.

Excellencies and my fellow friends,
The leadership shown by China and the Chinese people has played a pivotal role in the betterment of not only the immediate region, but also in many far-flung countries. The Belt and Road Initiative is a living example of this, which is not merely an infrastructure development project and a business venture in a classical sense. It will lay a solid foundation for multi-faceted cross border cultural and socioeconomic exchanges and cooperation at mega scale. The theme of today's forum isalso another solid manifestation of the friendly ambitions of China, which calls upon the Asian youth for building strong bridges of collaboration. Undoubtedly, today's Asian youth possesses the intellectual capacity to make the Asia as world's center of gravity for innovation, creativity, wisdom, and exploration of unexplored vista of human knowledge by being proactive collaborative partners.      

Excellencies,
China NationalPeople's Congress has recently approved the 14th Five Year Action Plan which embodies high-quality development of Belt and Road Initiative project and lays special emphasis on international cooperation for Human Resource development of Belt and Road Initiative countries in:

1.Quantum information to develop inter cities, intra cities, and free space communication network
2.Brain Sciences to develop brain inspired computing and brain-computer fusion technology
3.Photonics, micro and nano electronics
4.Network communication
5.Artificial intelligence
6.Biotech
7.Aerospace Sciences and
8.Modem energy systems

These initiatives, to be implemented by 2025, present abundant opportunities for Asian youth to quickly foster collaborations in these disciplines for realizing and transforming Asia as world's Centre of Buoyancy for future technologies.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
We, at Beijing Global Talent Exchange Association, are working hard to synergize international cooperation in line with the agenda set forth in the 14th National Action Plan of the NPC. During last two years, we have established 3 China Centers ofRussian Academy of Engineering, under collaborative arrangements with Russian Academy of Engineering, at Beijing, Suzhou, and Taizhou. Establishment of four more such centers at Shenzhen, Wuhan, Tianjin, and Jinan are in the final stages. These newly established centers of excellence will act as conduits for sharing of knowledge, skills and expertise, related to 4th generation technologies, between the academicians and students of the two friendly countries.

We have concluded Strategic Alliance Agreement with one of the premier university of Pakistan which will act as vehicle for integrating universities, professional councils, associations, and high-tech industries of the two countries for sharing knowledge and experiences through conduct of specialized training, workshops, seminars, undertaking joint research in emerging technologies and establishing R&D and Innovation Labs in Pakistan in current technologies’ domains like industrial automation, artificial intelligence, software engineering, biomedical, construction & civil engineering, automobile engineering, fashion design, textile engineering, and maritime sector.

We have commenced deliberations with relevant authorities of both Government of Pakistan and China for establishing Vocational University in Pakistan for certification of 5,000 students of regional and Belt and Road countries each year in 4th generation technologies. This kind of university is urgently needed to prepare high-tech certified professionals for executing, operating, sustaining, and supporting the vastly diversified mega BRI projects.

We have facilitated admission of more than 100 talented Pakistani students in Master, PhDs, and Postdoc programs in different Chinese Universities for complementing the efforts of both the Governments to further enhance mutual scientific and educational cooperation between the two brotherly countries.

We have facilitated admission of 16 Pakistani students in 3-year vocational training in automobile engineering in Guangxi Vocational College for Chinese automobile industries being set up in Pakistan. Moreover, 100 Pakistani students will start arriving each year after easing of travel restriction for vocational training in Wehai Vocational college.

We have conducted online professional certification training on industrial automation for more than 2,000 Pakistani professionals and students. Online certification training on artificial intelligence for all Shanghai Cooperation Organization countries is in the pipeline.

We have constituted different community groups of different Asian countries and Russia, comprising of more than 1,000 working professionals and students, for integrating various cultures and promoting spirit of cooperation in R&D of emerging technologies.

Honorable dignitaries,
I am neither a professional speaker nor a person having extra-ordinary talent. Our claims and work may also appear to you as insignificant. As the Chinese says that "Pearls don’t lie on the seashore. If you want one, you must dive for it.” Wealso firmly believe in putting up all of sincere efforts in shoring up and consolidating international cooperation for progress and prosperity of all and leaving behind a lovable and livable world for our future generations.

At the end, I once again pay my sincere tributes to all the leaders and organizers of this forum for the excellent arrangements and providing us opportunity to speak our minds before this august gathering.
Long live Asia. Long Live China. Thank you.
