Excerpt:
 
Against the background of globalization and the internet era, the emerging cyber sovereignty concept calls for 
breaking through the limitations of physical space and avoiding misunderstandings based on perceptions of binary 
opposition. Reinforcing a cyberspace community with a common destiny, it reconciles the tension between exclusivity 
and transferability, leading to a comprehensive perspective. China insists on its cyber sovereignty, meanwhile, it 
transfers segments of its cyber sovereignty reasonably. China rightly attaches importance to its national security, 
meanwhile, it promotes international cooperation and open development. China has never been opposed to multi-party 
governance when appropriate, but rejects the denial of government’s proper role and responsibilities with respect to 
major issues. The multilateral and multiparty models are complementary rather than exclusive. Governments and 
multi-stakeholders can play different leading roles at the different levels of cyberspace. In the internet era, the 
law of the jungle should give way to solidarity and shared responsibilities. Restricted connections should give way 
to openness and sharing. Intolerance should be replaced by understanding. And unilateral values should yield to 
respect for differences while recognizing the importance of diversity.
 
Article seems reasonably authoritative.  Author is Major General Hao Yeli, Chinese People’s Liberation Army (ret.), a 
senior advisor at the China International Institute for Strategic Society, Vice President of China Institute for 
Innovation and Development Strategy, and the Chair of the Guanchao Cyber Forum.
