One of the key responsibilities of the Kazakh government is to protect information security by eliminating illegal content, such as any promoting terrorism, extremism or pornography, said Kyrykbayev Arman, vice-minister of culture and information of Kazakhstan.

Arman said a national information monitoring system has been set up in Kazakhstan. The country also stepped up legislative efforts to curb the spread of illegal information.

"It calls for international and domestic efforts to monitor the telecommunications industry. The basic trend of telecommunications monitoring should be the establishment of compliance with unified standards based on international and national conditions," said Sultan Rayev, minister of culture, information and tourism of Kyrgyzstan.

Cai said he hopes China and other Eurasian countries can work together to set up bilateral and multilateral exchange mechanisms on the Internet, share their experience in Internet utilization and administration, and jointly address challenges brought about by the Internet.

He also urged information departments and media in Eurasia to protect the regional image and interests through cooperation.

"Globally, Western countries are dominating international public opinion as they have more to say and have occupied a favorable position to spread information, while the region we live in remains in a disadvantaged position in the international public opinion environment."
