Moderator: Mr Tsang, first of all thank you very much for today's busy schedule for taking the time to participate in between TOM. I know you have just come from Malaysia today, our today's chat from your past experiences, your ancestral home in Guangxi, you can talk to our friends to chat about your experience? Tsang wing Sam: my father in 1917 when from Guangxi Province to Malaysia when labour, I was the second generation. Malaysia is composed by three national multinational country, ethnic Chinese in Malaysia has considerable status in the American political parties from the founding has been doing very well, so in Malaysia by 3%, 40 Ministers are Chinese. So was appointed as Chairman of the House of Lords is on this basis. I was elected member of Parliament in 1944 to a Minister, Malaysia have upper and lower houses of Parliament, I almost 22 years. Then I was appointed to be responsible for the development of the port authorities, the time in 1997, they took me to the House of Lords. Moderator: House of Lords President mainly what duty? Tsang wing Sen: Chairman of the House of Lords in Malaysia should be equivalent to the Chairman of the Standing Committee of China. Usually in addition to the arrangement, presided over the meeting of the House of Lords, on behalf of the Government to take part in international conferences abroad. When Peng Ren, I have been to China and he talks about it. US Senate term of six years, I and Peng is in the same year of retirement. Moderator: you acted as Chairman of the House of Lords in in cooperation with a lot of work, can I talk about in recent years, trade, cultural, and comparative effectiveness which aspects? Tsang wing Sam: Malaysia 1974 established diplomatic relations with China, is the first to establish diplomatic relations with China and ASEAN countries, has been 31 years. Zheng, ways of Malacca, genuine contacts is 600 years ago. Malaysia was the first ASEAN established diplomatic relations with China and ASEAN countries, leaders of frequent visits. Malaysia also in economic terms, the ASEAN and China's largest national trade, China is the third trading partner in Malaysia. In progress in the area of tourism, culture, soon China to Malaysia more. Malaysia is a country with the largest Chinese, Malaysia's tradition is more suitable for Chinese people to visit, but Malaysia Chinese accounting for 26 per cent of the population, most of which will speak Mandarin. Because overseas Chinese, Malaysia is a rather exceptional, Malaysia is retaining the Chinese name, trade name, school. So Chinese visitors to Malaysia Travel does not feel very strange. Moderator: we have seen in recent years many Malaysia entrepreneurs will be to invest in China, the Chinese side has a lot to Malaysia investment, how do you think of our two countries trade cooperation? Tsang wing Sam: bilateral economic and trade relations and more robust, more effective. Because the first batch of Chinese investment in Malaysia to China may not be very familiar with, but there are also some very successful, such as Shangri-La Hotel system, parkson, of course, there are also some unsuccessful, in the area of investment is common in this, first go to sometimes on the local situation is not very familiar with, will face this problem. Now both the investment and more experienced, I heard that the success rate is high, it is said that in recent years the development of better, so more and more people to invest in China and Malaysia. This also reflects the development of China's economy is much better than before, and system management are better than before. Moderator: then you can introduce economic development in Malaysia, because many Chinese entrepreneurs also intends to invest in Malaysia. Tsang wing Sam: Malaysia extends United Kingdom system because Malaysia was the colonial United Kingdom, Malaysia, the people also more simple they resource.the, is a very good investment. Because when the economy started Malaysia might be slightly faster than China, because China has established the People's Republic of China in 1949, after a period of adjustment. I 1970s first came to China, from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing to three days, to fly to Hong Kong and then take the train to Shenzhen, Shenzhen was a backward country, Beijing was also quite Xiao. Now completely different, completely changes have taken place. Dynamic, new look. Moderator: you, the overseas Chinese see China have such development must also pride? Tsang wing Sen: of course, although we are Malaysia, but the emotion is still very strong. Because overseas Chinese communities, whatever his nationality, the relationship with China is still very strong. China rich and strong overseas Chinese are elated. Before China's poorer difficult time, overseas Chinese is not good too. For example, 1974 South Africa is the colonial administration, some country on racial discrimination is not based entirely on colour, which is based on the economic situation. For example, Japan can be seen as white, the Chinese people are different. Because at that time, Japan richer, more difficult. So China and overseas Chinese. Sometimes foreigners can't tell you is Malaysia's ethnic Chinese or Chinese origin, so China is developing well, also for Chinese. Moderator: we know you also serves as the Honorary President of the world, you have several years to promote and position in the world and the great solidarity, development done some work, and you can talk about your efforts in these areas? Tsang wing Sam: standing at a different point of view, we have different responsibilities, for example, some experts say that European 19th century belongs to the century, the twentieth century belongs to the United States, in the hope that the twenty-first century belongs to Asian. Malaysia is also a part of Asia, we hope to see Asia and colonized. Previously not only Malaysia colonized, China such a big country also colonized. Now this situation no longer exists, Asian people including global trials of Chinese should avoid a repeat of history. At this partyI hope the World Chinese Association in this regard, do some promotion work. I also mentioned in the General Assembly was appreciated in China now, in economic, scientific and technological development have received attention. Before China's "disease" of people simply do not care about, and now China slightly "uncomfortable" in other countries will be very worried. Although China is still regarded as a developing country, China productivity of economic structure has been developed with Europe and the United States, China has done better, global Chinese is also very exciting. But now China stronger, with the status, the twenty-first century is the century of the global village, the Chinese people to become a citizen of the world, there must be a citizen of the world's consciousness, psychology and culture. So I was very boldly suggested that the global Chinese should have an idea of the global village, a world view. For example, the global Chinese to Earth village performance started this kind of style, I not only Chinese, or a citizen of the world. Your culture, mentality, as has the level of the world. To reach the world level, to the modest. Because you want Fusion as part of the global village, you have to obey the law, self-love, or other race won't respect you. Economic good is a symbol, but rely on economic good cannot boot up to you in the global population. So the concept of the global village with Confucius, Sun Yat-Sen's world are the same. If you have money, but very brutal, he can't get along with you, what about peace? Moderator: OK, we also hope that in the near future global Chinese like Mr. Tsang wing's wishes, not only in economic strength, social status improved, more in our culture and our own development on the world's more human respect, very grateful to have the President accept our interview today.
