Senior Communist Party of China (CPC) leader Liu Yunshan met here Saturday with Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.

"Cyberspace is the common space of mankind, and it is the common responsibility for the international community to build a 'community of shared future' in cyberspace," said Liu, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee.

Chinese President Xi Jinping called for building a community of shared future in cyberspace last December when addressing the opening ceremony of the Second World Internet Conference in east China's Zhejiang Province.

President Xi's four-point principles and five-point proposals on global internet governance have won much popularity, said Liu.

Liu said China's internet industry, after undergoing over-20-year's development, has taken on a development path of governance with Chinese characteristics.

Liu expressed hope that Facebook, which has advanced technology and governance mode, should work with Chinese internet enterprises to enhance exchanges and share experience so as to make outcome of the internet development better benefit the people of all countries.

Zuckerberg, who is in Beijing to attend the annual meeting of the China Development Forum, spoke highly of the progress China has made in internet field, saying he would work with Chinese peers to create a better world in cyberspace.
