Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi presented four proposals on promoting East Asia cooperation when attending the ASEAN Plus Three (10+3) foreign ministers' meeting in Phnom Penh on Thursday. Wang said that over the past 25 years, the 10+3 cooperation among the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and China, Japan and South Korea has deepened and achieved many important results. The countries have established the goal of building an East Asian community and improved their cooperation framework; built the world's largest free trade area with the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), and promoted the integration of East Asia's industrial and supply chains and interests; strengthened crisis response capabilities and made landmark achievements such as the Chiang Mai Initiative Multilateralization.
