Editor's note: The 2019 Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference is underway in Boao, Hainan province, starting Tuesday. More than 2,000 delegates, including government officials, entrepreneurs and scholars from 60 countries and regions have shared their insights on various topics concerning the global economy, multilateralism, regional cooperation, global governance, innovation and development. Here are some memorable quotes from the event.

"The so called 'China strategy' is simply to promote global cooperation," he added.
