"The revitalization of the Silk Road will no doubt bring bigger development to related regions, and bring prosperity and happiness to the people. Laos will fully support the initiatives for the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road and work with other countries to participate deeply in regional cooperation."
Thongsing Thammavong, prime minister of Laos
"Thanks to President Xi Jinping's proposals, the Silk Road henceforth is no longer a concept in history and is now instead a robust platform to promote regional cooperation. The size and potential of the Silk Road Economic Belt and the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor is unprecedented. Pakistan is willing to work with all countries, including China, to strive for the rejuvenation of the Silk Road."
Nawaz Sharif, prime minister of Pakistan
"President Xi Jinping's proposals for the new Silk Roads have demonstrated China's outstanding vision - The renaissance of the Silk Road will expand China's "miracle" to all of Asia. Billions of people are likely to be lifted out of poverty and improve their livelihoods. Countries will learn to tolerate and trust each other through communication in ideas, arts and culture. The Silk Road will turn to a path of global unity, peace and equality, ushering in a new model for international exchanges."
Xanana Gusmao, prime minister of East Timor
