中国与南亚国家共建“数字丝路”的内涵、前景与对策

Study on the Connotation,Prospect and Countermeasures of the Digital Silk Road Construction by China and South Asian Countries

有关“数字丝路”的文献正不断增多,但对其内涵意义以及对我国与南亚国家如何共建“数字丝路”的讨论仍显薄弱。本文认为,“数字丝路”建设实际包含物理技术层面、数字应用层面以及数字社会沟通层面等三个层面内容,关系到电子信息设备制造业、网络信息基础设施产业、跨境电商以及数字新兴产业等相关产业发展。当前,中国与南亚国家共建“数字丝路”具有诸多机遇,如区位优势、消费需求、技术经济保障、前期合作经验以及后疫情时代数字化潮流的新发展,但也面对若干挑战,如中印关系波动、经济欠发达、复杂的地区安全形势、全球数字竞争以及我国数字企业海外发展意愿不强等。为此,本文认为,应从顶层设计与共建规划制定、提高我国数字建设带动力、积极参与南亚国家数字基础设施建设、加强信息数字应用开发、基于国别差异因地制宜推进共建合作和政企协同行动等方面入手,加快推进我国与南亚共建“数字丝路”合作进程。

The literature on the "Digital Silk Road"is increasing,but the discussion on its connotation and significance and the Digital Silk Road Construction between China and South Asian countries is still weak.This paper proposes that the construction of the "Digital Silk Road"actually includes the physical technology level,the digital application level and the communication level of the digital society,which is related to the development of electronic information equipment manufacturing industry,network information infrastructure industry,cross-border e-commerce and digital emerging industries.At present,China and South Asian countries have many opportunities to jointly build the "Digital Silk Road",such as geographical advantages,consumer demand,technical and economic support,early cooperation experience and the new development of the digital trend in the post-epidemic era,at the same time face a number of challenges,such as the fluctuation of China-India relations,economic underdevelopment,complex regional security situation,global digital competition and the weak willingness of China's digital enterprises to develop overseas.Therefore this paper puts forward the following countermeasures and suggestions:Strengthening the top-level design and co-construction planning,improving the driving force of China's digital construction,actively participating in the construction of digital infrastructure in South Asian countries,accelerating the development of information digital applications,and promoting co-construction cooperation and coordinated actions between government and enterprises based on national differences.
