三是深化人文领域交流，为未来亚洲厚植友好基础。民相亲、心相近是中国东盟合作的独特优势。我们要办好“中国－东盟人文交流年”，加强文旅、青年、媒体等交流合作，推动全球文明倡议在地区落实落地。中方支持未来5年中国－东盟菁英奖学金名额翻番，欢迎更多东盟青年赴华学习。中方也将继续向中国－东盟合作基金增资。

Third, we need to deepen people-to-people and cultural exchanges to solidify the foundation of friendship for Asia in the future. The close bond between our peoples is a unique strength of China-ASEAN cooperation. We need to make the China-ASEAN Year of People-to-People Exchanges a full success, strengthen exchanges and cooperation on culture, tourism, youth and media, and promote the implementation of the Global Civilization Initiative in the region. China supports doubling the number of recipients of China-ASEAN Young Leaders Scholarship in the next five years and welcomes more young people from ASEAN countries to China for studies. The Chinese side will continue to make an additional contribution to the China-ASEAN Cooperation Fund.
