This year marks the "China Year" of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). The 2025 SCO Summit will be held this autumn in Tianjin, where leaders of member states gather along the Haihe River to build consensus for cooperation. As the rotating chair, China has launched over 100 activities across political, security, economic and cultural fields.

To showcase the SCO spirit, CGTN and media partners from multiple countries jointly conduct field research in Tianjin City, exploring the city's developmental achievements. CGTN reporter Zhang Zhenni invites Shahrokh Saei, editor of Tehran Times, Wes Cabangon, operations advisor and journalist from Business Mirror, Borinika Sopharin Em, news presenter and TV documentary producer from TVK Cambodia, to share their insights into the SCO spirit experienced during the journey.
