Several Chinese provinces and regions have committed themselves in writing to fully apply their educational resources in serving countries along the Silk Road Economic Belt and 21st Century Maritime Silk Road.

The signing of several memorandums of understanding earlier this month with the Ministry of Education came as education authorities are preparing for the upcoming Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation, to be held in Beijing on May 14 and 15.

MOUs were signed by officials from Jilin, Heilongjiang, Shaanxi and Qinghai provinces, the Inner Mongolia autonomous region and Qingdao, a city in Shandong province.
