In 2025, the world is undergoing accelerated transformation amid rising turbulence and uncertainty. The interconnectedness between China’s development and the global landscape continues to grow, with China exerting increasingly profound and positive influence on global growth, technological transformation, and global governance. To continuously observe how China is perceived by the world, the Global Times once again launched the “Global Survey on Impression and Understanding of China,” covering 46 countries and about 51,700 respondents, to objectively, comprehensively, and accurately understand how foreign public perceives, understands, and evaluates China.

About the survey
This global survey was conducted by the Global Times Institute.
The sample of surveyed countries includes 15 developed countries and 31 developing countries, covering representative countries across all continents, as well as G20 countries, nine BRICS countries, and 10 ASEAN member states. China itself is not included.
Sampling, questionnaire distribution, and data collection followed standard industry practices. Depending on the specific conditions of each country, the survey was conducted through three appropriate methods: face-to-face interviews (CAPI/PAPI), computer-assisted telephone interviews (CATI), and large-scale online panel surveys. The target respondents were members of the general public aged between 18 and 70. During data collection, certain quotas were applied to the sample composition based on the population characteristics of each country.
The survey was conducted from August to October 2025, and a total of 51,689 valid samples were collected.
