June 15 marks the 10th anniversary of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). Over the years, the organization has thrived to become the guardian of regional peace and stability. Bilateral and multilateral cooperation in a wide range of areas have also flourished.
Leaders of the six-member organization, which groups China, Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, met in the Kazakh capital of Astana on Wednesday to mark the occasion, and more importantly, to chart its future in the coming 10 years.
The attendance of President Hu Jintao at the summit underscores China's long-term commitment to the steady growth of the regional organization.
