Mohamed Ashmalee, State Minister of Finance and Treasury of Maldives, on Thursday shares his thought on President Xi Jinping's speech addressed at the opening of the Second World Internet Conference.

"President Xi's speech is quite inspiring. First of all, he talked about cyber collaboration, coordination, unity and cybersecurity. Maldives and China can work closely on these aspects.

Also, I think every country is unique and different in its own way so it is natural for every country to have some reservations. But still, we have to come to a consensus for global development.

This is the most important way for global integration. Besides, I think the Silk Road initiative can provide the largest potential for China-Maldives collaboration. It offers a platform to share resources."
