Chinese Vice President Wang Qishan said in Davos on Wednesday that a historical perspective is key to understanding China, addressing the 2019 annual meeting of the World Economic Forum.

He said questions about China's development and progress can be answered from historical, cultural and philosophical perspectives.

"Given the close linkage between the past, the present and the future, one needs to learn about China's past in order to understand its present and forecast its future," he said.

This year's Davos forum gathers over 3,000 participants to discuss "Globalization 4.0," a buzzword that means a new wave of globalization in a digital world.
