The China-India strategic partnership for peace and prosperity was declared in April 2005 when Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao paid a state visit to Delhi. Since then, many measures have been taken to push forward bilateral ties, including the unveiling of the 10-point strategy* to further those ties made during Chinese President Hu Jintao’s visit to Delhi in November 2006. In his speech at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences in January 2008, Indian Prime Minister Mamonham Singh concluded that the world has sufficient space to let India and China develop simultaneously, a meaningful guiding principle for the partnership.
