For many years, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) has taken promoting digital cooperation and digital transformation among its member states as the forefront of cooperation. China is an important participant, promoter, and contributor to the digital cooperation of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. Building the China SCO Big Data Cooperation Center, establishing the "Digital Silk Road" Economic Cooperation Pilot Zone, and holding the China SCO International Symposium on Digital Technology Exchange... China continues to promote the construction of the SCO digital base, focusing on digital infrastructure, digital technology, data products, data flow, and international cooperation in the digital economy, consolidating consensus on digital cooperation, improving the construction of digital cooperation mechanisms, promoting pragmatic cooperation in the digital field, and actively creating a "SCO" model for digital economic cooperation. Constantly innovating digital cooperation methods, epidemic prevention officers can complete information filling and reporting by clicking on a mobile app after vaccinating livestock and poultry; When slaughtering cattle and sheep, enter your phone number on the software to check the immunization information of livestock and poultry in the past 3 years. This is a paperless epidemic prevention system and electronic animal quarantine certificate issuance system developed by Xinjiang Qisehua Information Technology Co., Ltd., which has been promoted to more than 10000 villages. The background of the software is located in Xinjiang Karama Evian Computing Industrial Park, which has attracted the attention of many SCO national students who came to the park for training. The development of agriculture and animal husbandry in our country also requires such technology Omlegulov Bakhent, Director of the Project Implementation Department of the Digital Development Department of Kyrgyzstan, said. Bakkent once went to China to participate in the "Shanghai Cooperation Tree" digital technology talent training, visited Karama Evian Cloud Computing Industrial Park in depth to understand the application of digital systems in China, and hoped that such technology could also be promoted and applied in Kyrgyzstan. In recent years, China has taken practical actions to promote digital cooperation among member states of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and the results of cooperation are evident to all. Zhu Shuai, Director of the Research Office and Senior Economist at China Electronics Information Industry Development Research Institute (CCID Research Institute), stated in an interview with our reporter that the main forms of cooperation include: firstly, establishing a policy cooperation mechanism. China actively promotes the signing of documents such as the "Concept of Cooperation among SCO Member States on Digitalization and Information and Communication Technology" and the "Statement of the Council of Heads of State of SCO Member States on Cooperation in the Field of Digital Transformation", establishes a digital economy working group, and clarifies priority cooperation directions. The second is to build a digital collaboration platform. China has established the "China Shanghai Cooperation Organization Big Data Cooperation Center" to build a bridge for win-win cooperation in the digital field and accelerate the process of digital industrialization. The third is to publish a collection of cooperation cases. In June 2024, at the opening ceremony of the "China Shanghai Cooperation Organization International Symposium on Digital Technology Exchange", the "China Shanghai Cooperation Organization Countries Digital Cooperation Case Collection (2024)" and the "Shanghai Cooperation Organization Countries Digital Infrastructure Development Report (2024)" were released, fully demonstrating the achievements of China's cooperation with SCO member states in the field of digital technology. In recent years, China has promoted the upgrading of digital infrastructure among SCO member states, proposed the construction of the Digital Silk Road, and improved the efficiency of cross-border communication and data flow among SCO countries. The digital economy between China and the member states of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization is showing a trend of deep integration, and has achieved many cooperative results in cross-border e-commerce, digital payments, intelligent logistics and other fields Xiao Bin, Deputy Secretary General of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Research Center of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and Director Researcher of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Research Center, told our reporter that China attaches great importance to sharing digital technology with SCO countries, constantly innovating digital cooperation methods, and has achieved many cooperation results in the fields of innovative digital cooperation platform construction, promoting digital talent education and training, strengthening network security and digital governance, promoting smart city construction and green energy digital transformation. Following the trend of global trade development, "by sharing technology and experience, China helps SCO member states with different levels of development to improve their level of digital infrastructure construction, narrow the digital divide, give all member states the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of the digital economy, and promote the overall inclusive development of SCO member states." Xiao Bin said that China actively promotes digital cooperation among SCO member states mainly because: SCO member states have a strong willingness to engage in digital cooperation with China; The need to implement the "the Belt and Road" initiative and the global development initiative; In line with the principle of "seeking common development" in the "Shanghai Spirit". China has unique advantages in technological, market, and institutional innovation in carrying out digital cooperation among SCO countries Zhu Shuai analyzed that China's 5G, big data, artificial intelligence technology, and other technologies are at the forefront of the world, with a complete ecosystem covering hardware, software, and services, which can provide technical support for SCO countries. The vast domestic market in China provides conditions for testing and promoting new technologies, which can cultivate mature application scenarios and facilitate their promotion and use in SCO member states. In addition, China has successfully piloted innovative mechanisms such as cross-border e-commerce pilot zones and a "whitelist" for cross-border data flow, providing ample space for cooperation with SCO member states in building a shared economy, smart Internet of Things, digital ecosystem, and other areas. China and SCO member states' cooperation in the digital economy conforms to the trend of global trade development. In recent years, driven by digital technology revolutions such as big data, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence, the proportion of digital trade in global service trade has significantly increased. According to the World Trade Organization, the global export value of digitally deliverable services in 2023 is $4.25 trillion, a year-on-year increase of 9%, accounting for 54.2% of global service exports and reaching a new historical high in scale. In this context, China and the member states of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization deepen digital cooperation, and the dividends of the digital economy released benefit the people of all countries. Zhu Shuai introduced that in the construction of digital infrastructure, China has participated in the investment and construction of projects such as the China Kyrgyzstan Uzbekistan cross-border optical cable and the China Russia international data channel, which have reduced regional network latency by 40% and significantly improved data transmission efficiency; In terms of sharing digital technologies and innovative achievements, cooperation involves digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and blockchain, enhancing the digital innovation capabilities of member countries and promoting the widespread application of digital technologies in industries such as industry, transportation, agriculture, health, education, and energy; In the development of digital trade and e-commerce, the China Shanghai Cooperation Organization Local Economic and Trade Cooperation Demonstration Zone has created a cross-border e-commerce ecosystem, launched the "Silk Road E-commerce" comprehensive service base, and solved problems such as cross-border settlement and customs clearance convenience in cross-border e-commerce cooperation; In the field of cybersecurity, strengthening digital security cooperation between China and SCO member states is conducive to safeguarding the regional security development environment and addressing non-traditional security threats such as cross-border data breaches and cyber terrorism. Injecting new impetus into regional economic development, entering the intelligent networked training area of the Luban Workshop in Kazakhstan, a strong "technological style" is sweeping across - the city road sand table is placed in the middle, and the big screen displays the "real-time road conditions" collected and analyzed by big data. Saken Oralbek, a graduate student majoring in Transportation Planning and Management at East Kazakhstan Technical University, took out his tablet and operated it a few times. The simulated unmanned vehicle parked in the sand table immediately started driving on the road and operated according to the traffic signal lights. He said that with the technical equipment provided by the Chinese side, East Kazakhstan Technical University has taken the lead in offering smart transportation courses in the country. The technology we are learning is very advanced and will help alleviate traffic congestion in big cities, "said Saasat Nurbek, Minister of Science and Higher Education of Kazakhstan. In the future, Kazakhstan will replicate the successful cooperation model of Luban Workshop in other cities and expand cooperation between Kazakhstan and China in fields such as artificial intelligence, computer science, and engineering. Elov Fulkatzhong, the director of the Securities Management Department of the Securities Development Bureau of the Tajikistan Ministry of Finance, who has come to China for training, said that he hopes Tajikistan and China can strengthen cooperation in the digitization of capital markets, securities markets, and the application of digital technology in the financial system in the future, and jointly improve the level of digital application. Academician Palpiev of the Uzbekistan Academy of Sciences stated that there is a strong demand, solid measures, and a strong drive among young people to advocate innovation in the field of science and technology among SCO countries to strengthen open cooperation. He is full of confidence in scientific and technological innovation and digital cooperation under this framework. 2025 is the 'Sustainable Development Year' of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. The digital cooperation between China and SCO member states in the field of artificial intelligence will become a hot topic Xiao Bin said that in the digital cooperation between China and SCO member states, AI's performance in enabling industrial upgrading, sharing cross-border logistics and data flow technologies, participating in digital governance and maintaining network security, improving the quality of public services, improving energy efficiency, building smart cities and digital ecosystems, promoting the flow of transnational talents and technology transfer is worth looking forward to. There is still great potential for cooperation between China and the member states of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in the fields of energy transformation and artificial intelligence that needs to be explored Zhu Shuai said that China and SCO member states can jointly promote the establishment of a SCO digital authentication and mutual recognition mechanism, explore new cooperation models and application scenarios, promote the deep integration of digital technology and the real economy, and inject new impetus into regional economic development.
