The two sides should "increase exchanges and cooperation in technology and management experience for further development," he told Chinese and ASEAN officials and business leaders present at the summit. Both sides should also continue exploring new fields for cooperation in economic and social development according to the new situation and new needs related to development in China and ASEAN countries, the vice premier said.
