Several activities were held during the conference, including sessions where journalists from South and Southeast Asia shared their experiences in media cooperation over the past year, and the 3rd Yunnan International Media Forum (the "Elephant Forum"), which focused on promoting the traditional cultures of countries in the region, fostering people-to-people exchanges, strengthening the links between Yunnan, China, and participating countries, launching communication cooperation plans, expanding the media alliance, and creating new platforms for mutual learning among civilizations.
The event was attended by nearly 100 international journalists and representatives from more than 40 media organizations from Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal, India, and over 10 central media units from China, all of whom are involved in the media alliance.
This is the first time that VTV has attended the event, seeking to explore collaboration opportunities with media partners in Yunnan Province, China, and other countries in the region.
During the conference, a representative from VTV introduced the VTV On Air publication of VTV Times at a media exhibition booth, drawing considerable attention from attendees and international media organizations.
