On July 13, H.E. Fei Shengchao, Chinese Ambassador to Belgium, attended the seminar entitled "Cybercrime Without Borders: EU-Asia Cooperation Against Online Scams." The event was initiated by Member of the European Parliament Ondřej Dostál and Brussels City Councillor Nasir Mohammad. Around 50 representatives from diplomatic missions, the business community, academia and the media, including the Chargé d'Affaires ad interim of the Embassy of Myanmar in Belgium, participated in the seminar.

In his keynote address, Ambassador Fei noted that telecom and online fraud is a scourge on human society. The Chinese Government adheres to the people-centered philosophy of development and maintains a high-pressure campaign against telecom and online fraud. He shared China's practical experience and achievements in combating telecom and online fraud, highlighting in particular educational and awareness-raising initiatives targeting the vulnerable “3S” groups-Students, Senior Citizens and Single families-as well as the integrated "3C" approach of communication, countermeasures and cooperation. Ambassador Fei stressed that China stands ready to work with all parties to actively implement the four Global Initiatives-the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative, the Global Civilization Initiative and the Global Governance Initiative, and jointly foster a peaceful, secure, open, cooperative and orderly cyberspace.

Ambassador Fei's remarks were well received and applauded by the participants.
