2015 APMCM PROBLEMS
Problem A
The impact of the development strategy of the Maritime Silk Road
In September and October 2013, Chinese President Xi Jinping respectively proposed the
strategic concepts of constructing the Silk-Road Economic Belt and the Maritime Silk Road
in 21st Century. One Belt and One Road is not an entity or mechanism, but the concept and
advocation of cooperation and development. With the existing effective regional cooperation
platform, it relies on the existing bilateral and multilateral mechanism between China and
relevant countries to use the historical symbol of the ancient Silk Road, hold high the banner
of peaceful development, take the initiative to develop the economic partnership with the
countries along the line, and to create a community of interests, destiny and responsibility
with political mutual trust, economic integration and cultural inclusion.
Please refer to the relevant data and analyze the historical background of the proposing of the
Maritime Silk Road in 21st Century; please choose a perspective and an industry to analyze
the relevant economic indicators and establish a mathematical model to study the short-term
impact of the development strategy of the Maritime Silk Road on China or other countries.
