President Xi Jinping attended the World Economic Forum in Davos with a delegation of business elites, scholars and officials last Tuesday. They made their own contributions while eagerly hearing speakers at an event on how to brighten the world's gloomy prospects.

Xi, the first top leader from China at the forum, delivered a highly anticipated keynote speech in which he highlighted the three key challenges that need to be addressed to revive the sluggish global economy, namely its lack of a driving force for growth, ineffective global economic governance, and imbalanced development.

He prescribed innovation, win-win cooperation and governance reform as the remedies.
