Shanghai Mayor Gong Zheng met with the Administrator of the United Nations Development Programme, Achim Steiner and his entourage today. Gong Zheng said that Shanghai is currently focusing on the construction of “five centers” to speed up the construction of a modern socialist cosmopolitan city with world influence. Steiner said that my relationship with Shanghai is 20 years old, and the development of Shanghai is exciting. It not only provides a model for developing countries around the world, but also allows me to see the future direction of economic development. Shanghai is not only a window for China to open up to the outside world, but also a window for the world to learn about China's development experience. The United Nations Development Programme is willing to deepen cooperation with Shanghai, build a platform for cooperation, explore cooperation models, share cutting-edge ideas from the international community to Shanghai, and better support Shanghai; at the same time, it hopes to share Shanghai's experience with global partners so that developing countries can better meet challenges and seize opportunities.
