為應(yīng)對(duì)人類社會(huì)面臨的共同挑戰(zhàn)，提升人民生活水平，聯(lián)合國于2015年制定了可持續(xù)發(fā)展目標(biāo)，呼吁全球一致行動(dòng)，為促進(jìn)經(jīng)濟(jì)繁榮發(fā)展、增進(jìn)社會(huì)福祉和保護(hù)環(huán)境付出不懈努力。然而，由于許多發(fā)展中國家行動(dòng)不足，官方發(fā)展援助下降，以及私人部門資本流動(dòng)中斷，實(shí)現(xiàn)可持續(xù)發(fā)展的步伐不盡如人意。

百年不遇的新冠疫情，使各國在人民生命健康、經(jīng)濟(jì)增長與社會(huì)發(fā)展上付出慘重代價(jià)，全球離可持續(xù)發(fā)展目標(biāo)的差距拉大。各國疫情防控水平與疫苗分配不均衡，經(jīng)濟(jì)復(fù)蘇不平衡，帶來國家分化、不平等擴(kuò)大和阻礙包容性增長的巨大風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。同時(shí)，還有可能加大地緣政治緊張局勢，使全球治理變得更為復(fù)雜，進(jìn)一步削弱世界抵御未來沖擊的能力。如何重振全球經(jīng)濟(jì)，縮小日益增大的發(fā)展差距，實(shí)現(xiàn)可持續(xù)發(fā)展目標(biāo)？世界期待找到面向未來可持續(xù)增長的新范式，而不是重回老路。

新冠疫情暴露了亞洲經(jīng)濟(jì)體醫(yī)療衛(wèi)生體系的薄弱環(huán)節(jié)和關(guān)鍵基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施的不足，凸顯了數(shù)字化轉(zhuǎn)型的重要性和及早應(yīng)對(duì)氣候與環(huán)境問題的迫切性。報(bào)告通過分析中國、印度、印度尼西亞、日本、哈薩克斯坦、韓國、馬來西亞、巴基斯坦、卡特爾、沙特阿拉伯、新加坡、泰國、越南等若干有區(qū)域代表性的亞洲國家發(fā)展表現(xiàn)，認(rèn)為衛(wèi)生健康、基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施、綠色轉(zhuǎn)型和數(shù)字鴻溝是制約當(dāng)前亞洲經(jīng)濟(jì)可持續(xù)復(fù)蘇的重要瓶頸。在各國財(cái)力和資源都十分有限的情況下，政府需要有重點(diǎn)地行動(dòng)，解決好衛(wèi)生健康、基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施、綠色和數(shù)字四大發(fā)展赤字并有效連動(dòng)，有力釋放發(fā)展?jié)摿?，推?dòng)實(shí)現(xiàn)多個(gè)可持續(xù)發(fā)展目標(biāo)。

在衛(wèi)生健康赤字方面，由于政府財(cái)政能力不足或規(guī)劃不合理，許多亞洲經(jīng)濟(jì)體面臨醫(yī)療資源短缺，對(duì)傳染病準(zhǔn)備不足的困境。當(dāng)前，在亞洲這樣一個(gè)人口眾多的大陸上迅速分發(fā)和接種疫苗的任務(wù)艱巨。應(yīng)提升衛(wèi)生服務(wù)體系的可及性、公平性和反應(yīng)性；加大衛(wèi)生健康基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施投入；考慮建立應(yīng)對(duì)重大疫情或突發(fā)公共衛(wèi)生事件的儲(chǔ)備；發(fā)展健康產(chǎn)業(yè)，抓住數(shù)字衛(wèi)生和數(shù)字健康領(lǐng)域的機(jī)遇；加強(qiáng)各國衛(wèi)生健康的微觀治理。

在基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施赤字方面，需要加強(qiáng)硬件與軟件基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施的韌性，更好地支撐區(qū)域內(nèi)經(jīng)濟(jì)活動(dòng)和供應(yīng)鏈穩(wěn)定。有計(jì)劃地建設(shè)更多能夠抵御災(zāi)害和氣候變化的基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施，加大數(shù)字基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施投入。加強(qiáng)跨境基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施互聯(lián)互通，支持新型基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施建設(shè)。營造更公平、公正、非歧視的市場環(huán)境，落實(shí)好包括去年底簽署的區(qū)域全面經(jīng)濟(jì)伙伴關(guān)系協(xié)定（RCEP）在內(nèi)的自由貿(mào)易協(xié)定，進(jìn)一步利用好電子商務(wù)與自動(dòng)化等新興技術(shù)和業(yè)態(tài)。

在綠色赤字方面，隨著經(jīng)濟(jì)快速發(fā)展，亞洲國家的二氧化碳排放快速上升，許多國家面臨著嚴(yán)重的環(huán)境和氣候風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，以及適應(yīng)和緩解氣候變化壓力的挑戰(zhàn)。中、日、韓等亞洲國家領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人在2020年做出碳中和的目標(biāo)承諾，受到國際社會(huì)廣泛贊譽(yù)。在產(chǎn)業(yè)轉(zhuǎn)型、技術(shù)進(jìn)步和融資改革等方面，政府需要拿出切實(shí)可行的行動(dòng)路線圖。政府應(yīng)激勵(lì)社會(huì)不同部門朝著綠色發(fā)展方向前進(jìn)，把激勵(lì)架構(gòu)分解到地方政府層面并加以落實(shí)。創(chuàng)造更多綠色就業(yè)崗位。制定更有雄心的國家自主減排貢獻(xiàn)目標(biāo)。進(jìn)一步加強(qiáng)氣候領(lǐng)域的技術(shù)研究與創(chuàng)新。

在數(shù)字赤字方面，亞洲經(jīng)濟(jì)體間的數(shù)字不平等切實(shí)存在，頂尖的數(shù)字技術(shù)企業(yè)在地理上高度集中，如何縮小亞洲各經(jīng)濟(jì)體之間的數(shù)字鴻溝，是目前亞洲面臨的最大挑戰(zhàn)之一。抓住疫情機(jī)遇促進(jìn)數(shù)字經(jīng)濟(jì)加速發(fā)展。數(shù)字技術(shù)的應(yīng)用仍有很大提升空間；推動(dòng)社會(huì)管理和城市建設(shè)向數(shù)字化、智能化方向發(fā)展；推動(dòng)數(shù)字普惠金融發(fā)展；促進(jìn)數(shù)字經(jīng)濟(jì)主體公平競爭。

為促進(jìn)可持續(xù)復(fù)蘇，企業(yè)需有更意識(shí)地行動(dòng)，這既是全球公民的社會(huì)責(zé)任，更是企業(yè)自身可持續(xù)發(fā)展的保障，對(duì)企業(yè)的中長期業(yè)務(wù)戰(zhàn)略至關(guān)重要。企業(yè)應(yīng)把握好自身產(chǎn)業(yè)所面臨的機(jī)遇和風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，及時(shí)向可持續(xù)發(fā)展需要的新經(jīng)濟(jì)領(lǐng)域轉(zhuǎn)型。把創(chuàng)新研發(fā)作為企業(yè)發(fā)展第一生產(chǎn)力，推動(dòng)信息化、數(shù)字化、智能化和低碳技術(shù)創(chuàng)新應(yīng)用；把握好衛(wèi)生健康、綠色產(chǎn)業(yè)商機(jī)，吸引ESG投資；應(yīng)對(duì)氣候變化帶來的物理風(fēng)險(xiǎn)和資金風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，朝著綠色的全球價(jià)值鏈邁進(jìn)；加強(qiáng)員工傳染病防治、數(shù)字技能和綠色生活方式培訓(xùn)，建立更為靈活的現(xiàn)場辦公與遠(yuǎn)程辦公的安排，創(chuàng)造更多的靈活用工機(jī)會(huì)。

為實(shí)現(xiàn)聯(lián)合國秘書長古特雷斯提出的“重建更美未來”，國際社會(huì)需要堅(jiān)持多邊主義，攜手合作應(yīng)對(duì)新冠疫情的負(fù)面沖擊，縮小四大發(fā)展赤字，解決好全球“治理赤字”。全球應(yīng)加快疫苗接種，公平分配疫苗，建立防疫健康信息互認(rèn)機(jī)制，為經(jīng)濟(jì)加快復(fù)蘇打下堅(jiān)實(shí)基礎(chǔ)；推動(dòng)落實(shí)《聯(lián)合國氣候變化框架公約》及其《巴黎協(xié)定》，實(shí)現(xiàn)2030年應(yīng)對(duì)氣候變化國家自主貢獻(xiàn)目標(biāo)；促進(jìn)包括共建“一帶一路”倡議在內(nèi)的區(qū)域和國際發(fā)展議程有效對(duì)接、協(xié)同增效；推進(jìn)各類自由貿(mào)易協(xié)定的有效落實(shí)和標(biāo)準(zhǔn)提升；鼓勵(lì)科技創(chuàng)新合作，激發(fā)數(shù)字經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展活力；發(fā)揮好全球治理平臺(tái)與國際機(jī)構(gòu)的重要作用。

Executive Summary of the 2021 Annual Report of

Sustainable Development: Asia and the World

To address common challenges facing mankind and improve the lives of people on the planet, the UN set out Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015, calling for relentless and concerted efforts around the globe to promote prosperity and economic opportunity, greater social well-being, and protection of the environment. Nevertheless, the pace has been far from satisfying globally, owing to insufficient national actions, the decline in official assistance and disruption to the private flows in many developing countries.

The unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic has taken a myriad toll on people's lives and health, the world economy, and social stability, which has further widened the UN SDG gap. The uneven containment of the pandemic, rolling out of the vaccines, and unbalanced recovery of the economy posed great risks of dividing nations, enlarging inequality, and hampering inclusive growth. It may also trigger more geopolitical tensions and make global governance more complicated, further weakening the world's resilience to future shocks. How to reboot the world economy and fill the widening gap to achieve the SDG goals? The world is looking to a new norm and pattern of sustainable growth, rather than going back into the old days.

The outbreak of COVID-19 has exposed the weaknesses in healthcare system and deficiency in key infrastructures, and underscored the importance of digital transformation and urgency of tackling climate change and environmental challenges. Through analysis of development situation in China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Kazakhstan, Republic of Korea, Malaysia, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, and other selected countries in Asia, this report finds out that healthcare, infrastructure, green transformation, and digital deficits are bottlenecking sustainable recovery in Asia. With limited fiscal and other resources, priorities shall be given by government on narrowing these four deficits with synergized efforts, thus releasing growth potential and helping realize multiple sustainable development goals.

On healthcare deficit: Due to the lack of financial capacity or proper scheme, shortage of medical resources is a huge obstacle for many Asian economies, and to distribute vaccines with speed in such a populous continent is a daunting task. We should improve the access, fairness, and responsiveness of the health care system, invest more in public health infrastructures, strengthen the reserve dealing with public health emergencies, develop the health industry with opportunities for digital health, and improve micro-level governance.

On infrastructure deficit: Hard and soft infrastructure need to be more resilient to bolster economic activities and supply chains within the region. Develop more infrastructures targeting dealing with environmental risks and climate change, enhance investment in digital infrastructures. Further cross-border infrastructure connectivity and support innovative constructions. Build an equitable, fair, non-discriminative market environment, firmly implement free trade arrangement including the newly signed Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership, seize the advantages of new technologies and business models like e-commerce and automation.

On green deficit: With the rapid economic development, carbon dioxide emissions of Asian countries are growing. Many of them are facing severe environmental and climatic risks, along with challenges of adaptation and mitigation. Announcements made by leaders of China, Japan, Republic of Korea, and other Asian economies on carbon neutrality in 2020 are most welcome. Concrete blueprints are needed in industry transformation, technology advancement, and finance adaptation and mitigation. Governments should set proper incentive mechanisms to direct green transformation for various sectors, and decompose the mechanisms into local government level. Create more job opportunities related to the green economy, set out more ambitious Nationally Determined Contributions, and further support research and innovation regarding climate change.

On digital deficit: Digital inequality exists across the Asian economies, with the top digital companies highly concentrated geographically. How to narrow down the digital gap among Asian economies is one of the biggest challenges faced by Asia. Governments may accelerate digital transformation under the physical barriers due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Much space exists for improvement in digital technology applications. We need to push social governance and city construction towards intelligence and digitalization. Enhance the development of digital financial inclusion, and create a fair, competitive environment for digital economy stakeholders.

d on our enterprise survey on sustainable development, half of the business owners are neutral about the prospect of the global recovery, while 60% are optimistic about Asia. Quick move in vaccination and steady ease of lockdown measures, easing of trade friction, stabilization of global value chain, and technological innovation ranked the top 4 main driving forces for global recovery, while in those for Asia recovery, regional trade integration, reinforcing cross-border infrastructure connectivity including through BRI, Connecting Euro-Asia ranked 2 and 3, next to pandemic containment. BFA members and partners have been contributing to the course of achieving SDGs, especially in proactively transforming their business to new energy, new infrastructure, new retail, and low carbon emission sectors. The specific cases of the Hyundai Motor Group, Merck, and JD Technology, demonstrated how the enterprises are aligning their businesses with the SDGs, through healthcare support, green transformation, and technology innovation.

For sustainable recovery, businesses should act with awareness. It is not only social responsibility for global citizens, but also a precondition for their own sustainability. It is critical to their medium- and long-term strategies. Firms should seize opportunities and prevent risks in transitioning toward new economic sectors that are necessary for sustainable development. Make innovation and R&D the primary productive forces; promote the innovative applications of information, digital, smart, and low-carbon technologies. Make full use of business opportunities in healthcare and green industries, attracting ESG investment. Introduce risk prevention arrangements to address the physical and capital risks posed by climate change, moving toward a green global value chain. Strengthen employee training on infectious disease prevention, digital skills, and green lifestyles. Offer a mix of in-office and remote work to create more flexible jobs.

To achieve the goal of "build back better" put forward by UN Secretary General António Guterres, the international society needs to hold firm in multilateralism, make concerted efforts to address the negative impacts brought by the COVID-19 pandemic, narrow the four development deficits, and tackle "global governance deficit". The world should prioritize vaccination, distribute vaccines equally, and establish mutual health data recognition arrangements, laying solid foundations for economic accelerated recovery. Push the implementation of the United Nations work Convention on Climate Change and Paris Agreement, facilitating the realization of Nationally Determined Contributions. Promote the connectivity and effectiveness of regional and international agreements and initiatives, including the Belt and Road Initiative. Advance the implementation of free trade agreements, and increase their standards gradually. Encourage cooperation in technology and innovation, promoting digital economy. Global governance platforms and international organizations will have a vital role to play.

Under the pandemic, Asian countries have, by all means, reinforced their health care system, stabilized the global supply chain, and led trade and investment recovery. Many regional initiatives were brought out to fight against the pandemic, enhance transportation connectivity, facilitate green transformation and shape up digital economy by the regional cooperation platforms, such as ASEAN+3, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and the GCC, and international organizations including the ADB, AIIB, etc.

Asia will be a major engine for global sustainable recovery. It is working hand in hand with other countries and regions to win the battle against the pandemic, trim development deficits, and promote economic integration. Asian countries must further strengthen their cooperation with other developing countries in experience sharing and capacity building. Asia is also going to play an active role in reshaping international rules and order, and promote construction of a community of shared future for mankind.
