The Chinese approach is essentially a pluralistic approach to listen to and learn from and respect other cultures and civilizations, and to recognize the importance of civilizations, Martin Jacques, former senior fellow at Cambridge University's Department of Politics and International Studies, said in a video to the Ninth Nishan Forum on World Civilizations.

The Nishan forum opened in the hometown of Confucius at the foot of Nishan Mountain in Qufu, Shandong province, on Wednesday, bringing together participants such as politicians, representatives from international organizations, diplomats in China, experts and scholars, including 330 people from overseas.
