Ge said that China-ASEAN people-to-people exchanges have a very solid foundation, with the most crucial driving force coming from top-level institutional design. In recent years, unilateral and bilateral facilitation policies introduced by China and ASEAN members have made such exchanges more convenient. In addition to official exchange programs such as tourism years, interactions among businesses, industries and other sectors have also become increasingly frequent. Moreover, both China and ASEAN members have demonstrated the willingness and capacity in recent years to expand cross-border cooperation in tourism, education and other areas.

　　Ge suggested that future China-ASEAN people-to-people exchanges should be more focused on identifying specific needs. This could include making exchanges more convenient for university faculty members, researchers, students and social media influencers, thereby further advancing China-ASEAN people-to-people exchanges.

　　To combat transnational telecom and online fraud, the Chinese government has actively carried out law enforcement cooperation with Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam and other countries in recent years, achieving notable results. Nearly 70 percent of respondents supported further deepening cooperation between China and ASEAN in non-traditional security fields, including the fight against transnational telecom fraud.

　　Abdurrohim said that cross-border law enforcement cooperation is one of the areas most valued by people in ASEAN countries. In particular, combating transnational online fraud rings operating across the region is an issue of deep concern to people throughout Southeast Asia.
