"It is a very nice newspaper. China Daily presents all the things people want to know about the BRICS. It represents BRICS' openness and inclusiveness."

Jelly is very interested in the "BRICS Plus" model this year, pointing out that Thailand Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha will join the BRICS leaders in attending the dialogue of emerging markets and developing countries on Tuesday. Jelly also hopes the Philippines will have deeper relations with the BRICS countries in the future.
