Protecting environment and assuring the development are consistent with each other dialectically. Generally, human and nature are harmonious over the time. However, the relation does change in different period of human’s history. That’s why we cannot detach the relations from history background.

Antarctica is a test for all of us in order to exam what our life value are, what the culture is, what we are pursuing for and how we are managing things with wisdom. I believe we will find a good or even perfect answer to it especially for Chinese.

Li,Junru

The two points are clear: one is building eco civilization was a former term in the report of 18th CPC National Congress; the second is the foundation of Antarctic Forum forms on perfect timing and it is in accordance with current historical development.

Animals habituating in the polar region are living a good live even though the radiation is pretty high. We are not sure about the exact reasons for that thus we should not come up a random conclusion.

Guo,Wei
President and University Distinguished Professor of the City University of Hong Kong

Personally I really would like to see a platform such as Antarctic Forum and BFA that spreads out Chinese voice to the world. We need an international platform where foreigners have the chance to understand what we Chinese did to make contribute to the world and our understanding of the world. It is a key point to make an effective international communication.

Chen,Qizong
Chairman of Hang Lung Group Hong Kong

Antarctica is a place reminds you the origin of life and where does the world come from and head to. It is a wonderful place to think and get reflections. These questions cannot be answered or terminated by a certain generation. From this point of view it is highly necessary and valuable for the existence of Antarctica Forum.

Li,Renchen
Former Deputy Editor in Chief of People’s Daily

There are lots of preparatory works had been done by Antarctic Forum organizers but I realize that is a massive work load when you really have your hands on it. That requires professionals who have academy background and familiar with the current international affairs to get involved to the topics in order to get insightful analysis and opinion thus help the forum to be outstanding. AI really hope Antarctic Forum will have a better future.

Wang,Yingfan
Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs
Permanent Representative of the People‘s Republic of China to the United Nations

I am very glad to have this opportunity to attend the Antarctic Forum meeting. Antarctica is a very unique place contains abundant natural resource. Everybody should pay more attention on Antarctica and Antarctica related activities and studies. I applaud for the preparatory work and progress made by the organizers. It is commendable to put effort in preserving Antarctica even when others are fickle and utilitarian. I think Antarctic Forum will have stronger vitality from now on.
