湖南杂交水稻技术文莱落地 为密切中文两国关系助力

Recently, China and Brunei launched a hybrid rice senior expert consultant project in the capital city of Bandar Seri Begawan to promote hybrid rice technology in Brunei.

近日，中国与文莱杂交水稻高级专家顾问项目在文莱首都斯里巴加湾市举行启动仪式，以促进文莱杂交水稻技术的发展。

Under this agricultural cooperation, experts from China's Yuan Longping High-Tech Agriculture Company, Hunan Hybrid Rice Research Center and Hunan Agricultural University held a series of lectures on hybrid rice breeding, pest and disease management, soil improvement and rice fertilization.

项目启动后，来自袁隆平农业高科技股份有限公司、湖南杂交水稻研究中心、湖南农业大学等单位的中国专家们举行了一系列主题讲座，内容围绕杂交水稻选育栽培、病虫害防治、土壤改良、水稻施肥等展开。

Chinese Ambassador to Brunei Xiao Jianguo said the project will contribute significantly to the growth of Brunei's rice industry and food security, Xinhua News Agency reported.

据新华社报道，中国驻文莱大使肖建国表示，相信本项目将为促进文莱水稻产业发展、保障粮食安全贡献更多力量。

Mustafa Izzuddin, a senior international affairs analyst with Solaris Strategies Singapore, said that China considers Brunei an important partner, not only as a founding member of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations but also for its vast oil and gas sector, which is integral to the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative.

新加坡Solaris Strategies国际事务高级分析师穆斯塔法·伊祖丁(Mustafa Izzuddin)表示，中国将文莱视为重要的合作伙伴，不仅因为文莱是东南亚国家联盟的创始成员国，还因为文莱庞大的石油和天然气产业，这对中国提出的共建“一带一路”倡议至关重要。

Brunei is keen on Chinese investment, Mustafa said, adding that it is focusing on diversifying its economy long dominated by the oil and gas industry.

穆斯塔法补充表示，欢迎中国投资，文莱正致力于让长期以石油和天然气产业为主的经济更多元化。

Mustafa said the hybrid rice project aligns with Brunei's plans as outlined in Wawasan Brunei 2035 (Brunei Vision 2035).

他表示，杂交水稻项目正好符合《文莱2035愿景》中对文莱未来的规划。

Introduced in 2007, Wawasan Brunei 2035 is a long-term development plan that aims to reduce the economy's dependence on the petroleum industry.

据悉，《文莱2035愿景》于2007年提出，是一个长期发展计划，旨在减少文莱经济对石油行业的依赖。
