China provided more than 10 billion masks and 2.3 billion doses of vaccines to other countries, including BRI partners, and jointly produced vaccines with over 20 of them.
The vaccines contributed much to the fight against COVID-19 in the countries, even the world.
Many people, including Indonesians, have probably forgotten how the Chinese vaccines came very early, just as the pandemic was rearing its ugly head.
Thanks to China, Indonesia could vaccinate millions of people, especially the high-risk groups, timely. Back then many cast doubt over the effectiveness of the vaccines. That President Jokowi was among the first to receive the COVID-19 jab was aimed at building public trust in the Chinese vaccines
We cannot imagine what would have happened had China refused to share its vaccines with developing countries and followed the footsteps of certain industrialized nations that lent a hand only while their vaccine stocks were sufficient. China deserves our respect and gratitude for its vaccine policy.
To his guests, including President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo, President Xi showed how the BRI became a life-saving scheme for many countries, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Developing countries prefer to borrow from China because it simply means business and does not take elements like human rights, press freedom and economic liberalization into account, unlike the dictating lenders such as the United States, European Union and Japan. Many of the loans from the latter eventually served the interest of the money lender than the borrower.
