Driving forces for Chinese trilateral cooperation 1) Engagement Imperative 2) Desire for Mutual Learning 3) Global image building 4) Requirement from recipient countries

Policy implications. Focus on pilot projects. Strengthen engagement. Identify areas of natural partnership. Start from low sensitive public welfare projects

Prospects for trilateral cooperation in agriculture Quite possible as cooperation in agriculture is low sensitive and more technical-based, but conditions may apply:. Political support from China and traditional donors. Request from recipient countries. Patience and closer coordination at all levels
