"We must seize the opportunities, keep up with the times, and take solid steps to advance Asia-Europe cooperation from a strategic and long-term perspective," he said.
ASEM partners must work together to promote world economic growth, Wen pointed out.
"We should intensify macroeconomic policy coordination, manage with caution the timing and pace of an exit strategy from economic stimulus, and keep the exchange rates of major reserve currencies relatively stable," he said.
Asian and European countries should strive to ensure steady recovery of the world economy, Wen said, adding that they also need to promote economic restructuring, gradually remove the systemic and structural risks, enhance fiscal sustainability and build internal drivers of economic growth.
ASEM partners must work together to reform the international economic and financial systems, the premier noted.
