Experts from China and Japan believe bilateral cooperation has broad prospects and great potential. Aiming to deepen understanding of Japan's post-war modernization and explore new avenues for future China-Japan cooperation, about 60 scholars from both countries gathered in Beijing for a high-level dialogue organized by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.

Many believe that despite differences in political systems, the two sides share similarities, correlations and commonalities in terms of historical and cultural values, and the modernization paths of the two countries are of comparative significance and reference value.
