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,，中國(guó)與文萊雜交水稻高級(jí)專家顧問(wèn)項(xiàng)目在文萊首都斯里巴加灣市舉行啟動(dòng)儀式,，以促進(jìn)文萊雜交水稻技術(shù)的發(fā)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.

項(xiàng)目啟動(dòng)后,，來(lái)自袁隆平農(nóng)業(yè)高科技股份有限公司、湖南雜交水稻研究中心,、湖南農(nóng)業(yè)大學(xué)等單位的中國(guó)專家們舉行了一系列主題講座,，內(nèi)容圍繞雜交水稻選育栽培、病蟲(chóng)害防治,、土壤改良,、水稻施肥等展開(kāi)。

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.

據(jù)新華社報(bào)道,，中國(guó)駐文萊大使肖建國(guó)表示,，相信本項(xiàng)目將為促進(jìn)文萊水稻產(chǎn)業(yè)發(fā)展、保障糧食安全貢獻(xiàn)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國(guó)際事務(wù)高級(jí)分析師穆斯塔法·伊祖丁(Mustafa Izzuddin)表示,，中國(guó)將文萊視為重要的合作伙伴，不僅因?yàn)槲娜R是東南亞國(guó)家聯(lián)盟的創(chuàng)始成員國(guó),，還因?yàn)槲娜R龐大的石油和天然氣產(chǎn)業(yè),，這對(duì)中國(guó)提出的共建“一帶一路”倡議至關(guān)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.

穆斯塔法補(bǔ)充表示,，歡迎中國(guó)投資,，文萊正致力于讓長(zhǎng)期以石油和天然氣產(chǎn)業(yè)為主的經(jīng)濟(jì)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,，雜交水稻項(xiàng)目正好符合《文萊2035愿景》中對(duì)文萊未來(lái)的規(guī)劃,。

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

據(jù)悉，《文萊2035愿景》于2007年提出,，是一個(gè)長(zhǎng)期發(fā)展計(jì)劃,，旨在減少文萊經(jīng)濟(jì)對(duì)石油行業(yè)的依賴。
