This book presents the opinions and perspectives of many eminent researchers, professors and experts from various countries on the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).

Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has been an obscure concept, and it remains difficult to distinguish what BRI is and isn’t, making it difficult for many governments and global corporations to properly participate in it. I am delighted to present the opinions and perspectives of many eminent researchers, professors and experts from various countries on the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).

The book contains 11 chapters which are written by distinguished researchers and practitioners from various parts of Asia. While these 11 chapters discuss the many characteristics of the BRI, including advantages and costs, they also convey the lessons that many other Southeast Asian countries have learned. Each chapter offers valueable lessons to the countries that have yet to participate in the initiatives.

Kalyan Raj Sharma graduated from Fudan University with a doctoral degree in economics in 2011. He is now the Chair of Nepal China Friendship Forum(NCFF), visiting scholar at Kathmandu University and the Managing Director of Adventure Outdoor Group of Companies. During his doctoral studies at Fudan, Sharma published a number of academic papers in both Chinese and English on the economy and tourism of China and Nepal.
