The 2026 ASEAN Media Partners Cooperation Week kicked off in Nanning, the capital of south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, on Saturday.

The event is jointly hosted by China Media Group (CMG) and the local government.

This year's event welcomes nearly 200 government officials, diplomats, media professionals and scholars from China and ASEAN countries.

At the opening ceremony, representatives from China, Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia and Thailand called for closer media cooperation in areas such as AI, digital technologies, joint content production, professional training and technology sharing.

The event has also launched a series of cooperation projects, covering China-ASEAN media innovation, fruit trade, the Pinglu Canal, Nanning's city development and joint reporting.

Media representatives from various ASEAN countries visited Nanning City and Qinzhou City on Friday and Saturday, where they toured key projects involving the Pinglu Canal and port-based industries. Through an ASEAN perspective and an international lens, they captured the new landscape of Guangxi's development and openness, thus able to truly picture the mutually beneficial cooperation between China and ASEAN.
