From China's active participation in international organizations over the years, it can be found that China actually understands the importance of playing a leading role in global governance. For example, China currently occupies five of the leaders of the 15 specialized agencies of the United Nations, namely the International Monetary Organization (IMF), the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), and the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). ICAO) and the United Nations Agricultural Food Organization (FAO).
Chinese state media proudly stated in 2015 that "an average of one Image Manipulation Service Chinese official joins an international organization every year." So what is China's purpose of actively striving for leadership in international organizations? Is it healthy competition or ulterior motives? First of all, we can speculate from the changes in China's investment in the IMF that one of China's goals in striving for leadership is to increase its "international voice." As China's share of the IMF's investment has continued to rise in recent years (from about 4% to 6%), China's voting power in the IMF has also expanded significantly. Although it is temporarily ranked third in the world, it is only 0.06% behind Japan, which is the second place with declining investment.
This may be fine, but it might be strange if the international organization worked closely with China because of a change of Chinese leader. Josh Rogin mentioned in the Washington Post that when China's Houlin Zhao became the secretary general of the ITU in 2015, the ITU began to increase cooperation with China, including promoting China's "Belt and Road" and defending China's telecom leader "Huawei"; in 2017 China's Liu Zhenmin was appointed Deputy Secretary-General of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA), which also began promoting the "One Belt, One Road" policy and working with Beijing authorities to establish a "large data research center" in China
