女士们、先生们：
Ladies and Gentlemen,
本届峰会的主题是气候变化问题。气候变化是当今全球面临的重大挑战。中国与南亚国家一样，都是气候变化的受害者，有着相似的遭遇，也有许多共同利益。我们对小岛屿发展中国家、最不发达国家的困境感同身受。
The theme of this summit – climate change – is a major challenge facing the whole world. China, like countries in South Asia, is a victim of climate change. We share similar experiences and a great deal of common interests. We fully understand the plight the small island developing states and the least developed countries face.
中国始终把应对气候变化作为重要战略任务，为此作出了艰苦努力。中国政府确定的减缓温室气体排放的行动目标是根据国情采取的自主行动，体现了对中国人民和全人类根本利益的高度负责精神，不附加任何条件，不与任何国家减排目标挂钩。
China has made strenuous efforts to address climate change which we regard as an important strategic task. The Chinese government has set a voluntary target of greenhouse gas reduction in consideration of our national realities. There is no condition attached to this target; nor is it linked to the emission cut target of any other country. We have done so out of a strong sense of responsibility to the Chinese people and the whole mankind.
中国始终与包括南亚各国在内的发展中国家站在一起，坚决维护发展中国家的共同利益，以高度负责的态度参与应对气候变化国际合作，并为哥本哈根会议取得积极的阶段性成果作出了最大努力。国际社会应该同舟共济，共同应对气候变化带来的挑战。发达国家应当为发展中国家提供资金、技术和能力支持，帮助发展中国家提高应对气候变化的能力。中方愿通过双边渠道和在南南合作框架下，同南亚国家加强应对气候变化领域的务实合作，并提供力所能及的帮助，力争使应对气候变化成为中国与南亚国家合作的新领域和双方关系的新亮点。
China stands together with all the other developing countries, including countries in South Asia, in firmly upholding our common interests. We have taken part in the international cooperation to tackle climate change in a responsible way. We made our utmost efforts at the Copenhagen Conference to ensure that a positive outcome was achieved. The international community should work together to tackle the challenges posed by climate change. Developed countries should provide financial, technical and capacity assistance to developing countries to enhance their ability to cope with climate change. China is ready to strengthen practical cooperation with South Asian countries on climate change through bilateral channels and within the framework of South-South cooperation. We will offer help within our capabilities and work to make climate change a new area of cooperation and a bright spot in our relations.
女士们、先生们：
Ladies and Gentlemen,
再过三天，为期六个月的上海世博会就要拉开帷幕。我们真诚欢迎南亚各国朋友到上海出席世博会有关活动，与中国人民共襄盛举、共谋发展、共促和谐。
In just three days' time, the six-month long World Expo will open in Shanghai. We sincerely welcome friends from South Asia to the Shanghai Expo to enjoy the great event together with the Chinese people, and discuss ways to promote prosperity and harmony.
最后，祝第16届南盟峰会取得圆满成功!
In conclusion, I wish the 16th SAARC Summit a great success!
谢谢大家。
Thank you.
