9、atic political system has been inevitable, as economic development has created the conditions for the emergence of a middle class and civil society.

22、出了很大 的步伐。 在经济发展为中产阶级和市民社会的形成创造条件时，向民主政治制度的过渡已势不可挡。我相信，亚洲显现的这一历史潮流是我们大家都引以自豪的。 第二，亚洲发展具有多样化的背景，每一个国家都有自己独特的历史和社会文化价值，所以他们的发展进程和速度是不同的。 然而，在尊重多样化的同时，尽管各国之间存在差异，我们应认识到相互之间的积极影响，重要的是要促进我们的共同利益，向共同目标迈进。 也就是说，我们必须摒弃狭隘的民族主义和教条主义，在平等的基础上推动互利合作，从而达到共同繁荣。 这应该成为我们的指导原则。 第三，我们的合作不应是内向型和封闭式的，而应是面向亚洲以外的世界。 当今，在全球
