Applied Philosophical Overview of the “Belt and Road Initiative” in the Maritime Silk Road

 




Belt and Road Initiative of the Maritime Silk Road Confucius Institute


The Maritime Silk Road Confucius Institute has been at the forefront of providing world peace and development in the Asian region through cultural academic exchange programs, and political and economic diplomacy to create the idealism of amity and comity among the sovereign states.

The Maritime Silk Road has been there as part of the economic, political, and cultural activities of the Asian people for many centuries It needs to be revived again not only for the sake of knowing it but the essence of consciousness which transcends what is moral and right in the quest of nirvana that revolves within the center of heart and soul of the human society.

The essence of the “Belt and Road Initiative” demands the full dedication of humanity to open their minds to understand the bright side in a long dark tunnel of mistrust by world leaders. The openness diversifies the image of human compassion dictated by trust and confidence to live in harmony of love and peace among nations.

The constructive bipolar view of closeness defines the oneness of spirits when entangled with trust the world will shower us the flowers of good deeds among men never seen even since the birth of the Maritime Silk Road that was economically and politically built by our forefathers. Let this book continuously inspire us to settle our differences on what we think is good for us not for others.

We think so much about world dominations based on our political interests and ideologies that we never thought that destroyed the very essence of what we are in this world. The existence of humanity must be cherished by what we have done in the past like the presence of the Maritime Silk Road that brought us together as “ One Asian nation” with our allies on the other sphere of influence as we deal with them peaceful diplomacy.

Let this book be dedicated to all of us to bring the greater glory on “Oneness, Openness and Closeness” that synthesize our ideal academic understanding of the “ Belt and Road Initiative” within the loyal commitment of the Maritime Silk Rod Confucius Institute...

Belt and Road Initiative of the Maritime Silk Road Confucius Institute



        The “Belt and Road Initiative of the Maritime Silk Road Confucius” is the expanded version of the “ One Belt One Road Initiative: Universal Perspectives in World Peace and Development through Change, Innovation, Idealism and Freedom” to further establish the presence of the Maritime Silk Road Confucius Institute in the promotion of cultural diversity, economic and political diplomacy in the Asian region. The Romchatra Foundation and Hanban with the participation of ASEAN foreign universities continuously support academic publications to promote the essence of oneness and closeness of the Asian people. It will also develop and forge independent foreign policy within the ideal view of comity and amity that will ensure world peace and development in the sovereign states that will participate in the “Belt and Road Initiative” through the Maritime Silk Road in the Asian region.

     The revival of the Maritime Silk Road in contemporary times denotes the manifestation of the philosophical wisdom that continuously views the human reflections of suffering and the nirvana of freedom as the centerpiece of cosmic forces of human society. The human life cycle must now come into a new economic diplomatic order in the interdependence of states where peace and development exist in the heart and spirit to all of us. We can only do this through the ideals of the Maritime Silk Road where the integration of Confucius Institutes ensures the political, cultural, social, and economic diplomacy development advocacies within the realm of INNOVATION, CHANGE, IDEALISM, and FREEDOM.

   The nirvana of the philosophical point of view of the “ Belt and Road Initiative” is when peaceful cooperation and agreement on tangible infrastructure support for the manufacturing and industrial sector, transportation, technology transfer, information technology, and other modes of development assistance. The end economic results are innumerable, particularly addressing a decent life that will work just like developed countries with bilateral and multi-lateral development programs. The social stratification will be expanded to the presence of the middle class which will have the collective consciousness in appreciating the ideas of Change, Innovation, Idealism, and Freedom.

Chapter II

Applied Philosophical Overview of the “Belt and Road Initiative”   in the Maritime Silk Road

        This chapter provides the conceptualization of the applied Philosophy in the implementation of the “Belt and Road Initiative” which can be situated in the Maritime Silk Road for Asia, Africa, and Europe. It has to discuss the wisdom of nirvana beyond the path of perfection to deal with more meaningful action of the Chinese government that initiated the peaceful transition of diplomatic life in the sovereign states to conform the ideal partnership and collaboration to all continental regions affected by the Maritime Silk Road in the past Asian civilization.

        The political ideology is not affected by the intrusion of the concept of the “Belt and Road Initiative” by the non-conforming view of Western world as to the sincerity about the effect of the diplomatic interest in the sphere influence in the outcome of this program. If tangible development projects are provided by a sovereign state such as the implementation of the “Belt and Road Initiative” from its revival of the Maritime Silk Road then the universal obligation of the other sphere of influence should take the candle of light from the political darkness in the consciousness of their minds and hearts from the western world. It had been invented by them the ideas of imperialism, colonialism, mercantilism, and absolutism as the dark shadows in the past civilizations and empires.

Bringing Peaceful Transition of the Oriental and Western Philosophy in the Adoption of the “Belt and Road Initiative”

       The world existed in the east-west sphere of influence that dictated human society in the timeline of political, cultural, and economic struggles for many centuries. The Eastern culture had been well represented by the yellow race where regional geographic structure was not the political barrier

      In the East, the Confucian Philosophy became the anchor of peaceful governance which resulted from the lessons learned in the past civilizations. Likewise, the Western sphere of influence demanded the same peaceful and righteous way to govern people way back in the time of Plato and Socrates even revived in the Age of Enlightenment. The blending of the East and West as part of the sphere of influence had been the same ideas of Change, Innovation, Idealism, and Freedom even in the point of view of oriental and Western philosophy.

      This book expands the interpretation of the Final Continuum Phase Transformation of the “Belt and Road Initiative” based on the Maritime Silk Road for Asia, Africa, and Europe :

1. Political and Economic Philosophy of Change. The primordial wisdom of the initiative is dictated by the political change through the implementation of peaceful diplomatic activities of the sovereign state to participate in the revival of the Maritime Silk Road that had been established for many centuries in China. This economic change provides the infrastructure and investment support to further improve employment generation, reduce poverty, and other social benefits of the program.

2. Political, Economic, and Technological Philosophy of Innovation. This represents the continuum stage of economic development in the idea of change which is followed by innovation based on the scientific and technological development for trade and industry in the identified areas of the Maritime Silk Road in Asia, Africa, and Europe. The economic programs of the “Belt and Road Initiative” emphasize the technology transfer and establishment of trade and infrastructure networks to achieve economic development in the area.

3. Social and Humane Philosophy in Idealism. The third continuum level once achieves political and economic change following technological innovation enhances the quality of life. This defines the social reality of class struggle will no longer be an issue as human society is given more economic opportunity to participate in the “Belt and Road Initiative.” The long-term economic impact will provide financial compensation and benefits within the ambit of employment generation, poverty alleviation, and enterprise development.

4. Achieving the Development Philosophy of Freedom. This is the end of suffering because the long-term economic effects in the implementation of the “Belt and Road Initiative” will give more opportunities of human society to sustain the improvement of quality of life in a given society. This reduces the social exploitation and suffering to all beneficiaries of the program which economic development is the key criterion of fulfilling the development philosophy of freedom.

Key Concepts and Assumptions of the Philosophy of “ Belt and Road Initiative” of the Maritime Silk Road

       The key concepts and assumptions are operationally presented based on the continuum level of philosophical development in the ideas of Change, Innovation, Idealism, and Freedom. The author discusses the rational and constructive view of the “Belt and Road Initiative” as to the political and economic impact in dealing with peaceful diplomatic activities to ensure the successful implementation of the development programs to all the people in Asia, Africa, and Europe.

Political Philosophy. It reflects the essence of the noble intention and motive of a sovereign state to bring closer and peaceful relationships with mutual respect and recognition to provide social and economic services to improve the quality of life of the people. It also defines the government initiative in the implementation of the infrastructure investment and information technology support to deal with diplomatic ties with the Chinese Government through peaceful cooperation, and bilateral and multi-lateral partnerships in response to the economic growth and development among countries of Asia, Africa, and Europe.

1. Employment Generation. The infrastructure and investment supports provide the necessary employment and compensation including the direct effect in the economic materials input of the program.

2. Poverty Alleviation. The social and economic services are given by the national government to provide employment and livelihood programs to provide income and employment.

3. Social and Economic Welfare. The government was responsible for providing the necessary basic services such as Education, Health, Environment, Infrastructure support, agricultural services, and livelihood programs.

Economic Philosophy. The essence of the productive enterprise demands useful financial support to any sovereign state that will spill off in the increase of material resources and manufacturing outputs including the employment of citizens in the implementation of development programs under the “ Belt and Road Initiative.”

1. Social Equity. The economic support of the livelihood programs and employment of the underprivileged class can be part of the recipients of the development program. It is expected that the critical areas provided of support include agriculture, fishery, forestry, aquaculture, and other sectors that will benefit from the provisions of infrastructure and investment support.

2. Economic Growth and Development. The productive result of the development programs that will increase the Gross Domestic Product, Gross National Product, Infrastructure Investment, and other financial benefits arrive at the program. The most important in this area is the economic development which contributed to the productive benefits of the poor people or the underprivileged class.

3. Pro-Poor Economic Programs. The utilization of technical assistance to give the necessary income and employment by providing livelihood enterprises, jobs and other forms of assistance.

Humane Philosophy. The equal social rights and opportunities of all people in a given society for the development of self-esteem, human dignity, freedom and live in descent life as a result of the financial grants and assistance in the infrastructure and business investment which will lead to higher employment opportunities and income derived of the poor people.

Self-Esteem. The direct economic benefits on the consciousness of the privileged class (pro-poor program) to enjoy the financial compensation and provisions of materials goods including the equality of opportunity to all the stratified classes.

Human Dignity. The extended benefits for all the people of a given society to enjoy the fruits of their labor to live in decent life

Freedom. The accumulation of material wealth and income will bring more economic opportunities for poor people to enjoy the basic rights to own, use, and dispose of property. The freedom denotes the full conviction of a decent life that adheres to the rule of social equality to all mankind.

Decent Life. It is not simply the right to live with social equality to all mankind but the full basic provisions of economic resources to let the family members enjoy in decent shelter, education, health, and other forms of basic needs to fully appreciate the meaning of quality life in a given society.

Idealism. The decent life attributed to economic change and innovation ensures incorruptible action that cannot be socially exploited from the bondage of the double standard view at the apex of social stratification.

Freedom. It denotes the end of the continuum in the “ Belt and Road Initiative” to bring peace and decent life as the nirvana of the social beneficiaries in the implementation of the Maritime Silk Road in Africa, Asia, and Europe.

       The continuum action in the assumption of the philosophical analysis of Change, Innovation, Idealism, and Freedom will provide more in the mediated view of the political ideologies of the East-West. The main theme redounds in what we believe is the equal rights for a decent life that creates the nirvana of life. We should provide the bridge of hope and understanding through the sphere of influence by the East and West in creating concepts of Idealism and Freedom including justice, equality, and appreciating the idea of human rights. The political ideologies have the same path of social equality apprehension where synthesized actions have the presence of dukkha (sufferings) when power and authority in the rigid social structure destroy the very essence of human dignity.

        The nirvana of the philosophical point of view of the “ Belt and Road Initiative” is when peaceful cooperation and agreement on tangible infrastructure support for the manufacturing and industrial sector, transportation, technology transfer, information technology, and other mode of development assistance. The end economic results are innumerable, particularly addressing a decent life that will work just like developed countries with bilateral and multi-lateral development programs. The social stratification will be expanded to the presence of the middle class will have the collective consciousness in appreciating the ideas of Change, Innovation, Idealism, and Freedom.

        The Western hemisphere may agree that the nirvana of humanity depends so much of giving decent life to all notwithstanding on race, culture, religion, ideology, and beliefs. The humanity cannot attend to the full ideals of freedom and dignity when a decent life does not exist for them. There will always be social exploitation and suffering whether this is developed or industrialized countries, the sphere of influence of the East and West will always become the tirades of ideological conflicts from the perplexity of limited employment and income. A decent life has been there to all of us we never accepted the truth but we can promote them in the development action of Change, Innovation, Idealism and Freedom.
