近代以來，亞洲經歷了曲折和艱難的發展歷程。亞洲人們為改變自己的命運，始終以不屈的意志和艱辛的奮斗開辟前進道路。今天，人們所看到的亞洲發展成就，是勤勞智慧的亞洲人民不屈不撓、鍥而不舍奮斗的結果。
亞洲人民深知，世界上沒有放之四海而皆準的發展模式，也沒有一成不變的發展道路，亞洲人民勇于變革創新，不斷開拓進取，探索和開辟適應時代潮流，符合自身實際的發展道路，為經濟社會發展打開了廣闊前景。

【譯文】
In modern times, Asia experienced twists and turns in its development. To change their destiny, the people of Asia have been forging ahead in an indomitable spirit and with hard struggle. Asia's development achievements today are the result of the persistent efforts of the industrious and talented Asian people.
The people of Asia are fully aware that there is no ready model or unchanging path of development that is universally applicable. They never shy away from reform and innovation. Instead, they are committed to exploring and finding development paths that are in line with the trend of the times and their own situations, and have opened up bright prospects for economic and social development.
