From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Boao Forum for Asia (Chinese: 博鳌亚洲论坛 , Bóáo Yàzhōu Lùntán), abbreviated as BFA, is a non-governmental, not-for-profit international organization modelled after the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. The founding of BFA was driven by the People's Republic of China and founded by 26 Australasian states on 27 February 2001. It has a fixed address in Bo'ao, Hainan Province, People's Republic of China, and is held annually as a high-level forum for governments, businesses, experts, and scholars. The focus of discussion is economics, the society, and the environment.

The geopolitical strategy 'China's peaceful rise' was a topic of discussion for the forum in 2004.
