At the World Economic Forum, healthcare experts have stressed that collaboration, not competition, is key to advancing global health initiatives. Eric Tse, CEO of Sino BioPharm, echoed this sentiment in a recent interview with CGTN reporter Zhu Zhu, emphasizing the crucial role of cross-border collaboration in healthcare.
“In an increasingly interconnected world, it’s essential that we work together to address global health challenges,” Tse said. He highlighted that political dynamics should not hinder the collective efforts to improve healthcare systems worldwide.
Tse’s remarks come amid shifting political landscapes that have challenged traditional partnerships. He believes that by fostering international cooperation, especially in medical research and development, countries can better prepare for health crises and share innovations that benefit all.
“Healthcare knows no borders,” Tse added. “By sharing knowledge and resources, we can accelerate breakthroughs and ensure that cutting-edge treatments are accessible to more people.”
The emphasis on collaboration over competition aligns with the broader goals discussed at the World Economic Forum, where leaders and experts are seeking ways to overcome obstacles posed by geopolitical tensions.
For young people in the Global South, Tse’s message underscores the importance of global unity in tackling health issues that disproportionately affect developing regions.
