In the spring of 1955, the Chinese government was invited by the five founding countries of the Bandung Conference and decided to send a delegation led by Premier Zhou Enlai to participate in the conference held in Bandung, Indonesia. Taiwanese spies received intelligence and began plotting to assassinate Premier Zhou. Before heading to the conference, Premier Zhou was invited by Burmese Prime Minister U Nu to travel to the capital Yangon via Kunming for a meeting with the prime ministers of six countries. At this time, the Chinese government’s chartered Indian plane, the “Kashmir Princess,” which took off from Hong Kong's Kai Tak Airport, was targeted for destruction by Taiwanese spies during its flight to Indonesia, resulting in the deaths of all eleven advance members of the Chinese delegation and foreign journalists on board, shocking the world. In the face of the complicated international situation and sabotage from Taiwanese spies, Premier Zhou, disregarding his personal safety, decided to continue his journey to Indonesia as originally planned on the Indian plane “Air King.” The overseas Chinese in Indonesia prepared extensively and with great patriotic enthusiasm to welcome their country's premier and delegation. The Overseas Chinese Association, led by leader Mai Gong, donated vehicles and supplies to the delegation and formed various service teams. When Premier Zhou arrived at Jakarta's Mayoran Airport under significant danger, he was warmly welcomed by local crowds and overseas Chinese, and the airport was crowded to the point of being impassable. The convening of the Bandung Conference marked the first gathering of leaders from numerous Asian and African countries that had just gained independence from colonial rule after World War II. The U.S. government also sent a large so-called press delegation to attend the conference. Despite good intentions, disagreements arose among the attendees in the context of complex international politics, with some representatives expressing doubts about communism, suggesting that Soviet communism was a new form of colonialism, and raising concerns about the potential threats posed by the dual nationality of overseas Chinese. The conference was on the brink of failure. The written remarks of the Chinese delegation had already been distributed, and they were not originally prepared to give a speech at the conference. However, faced with the situation, Premier Zhou made an impromptu request to address the conference, declaring, “The Chinese delegation is here to talk about unity, not to argue; the Chinese delegation is here to seek common ground, not to innovate…” His profound sincerity dispelled the doubts of the representatives and allowed Asian and African nations to find a common foundation for unity. During the Bandung Conference, Taiwanese spies organized a 28-member death squad known as the Iron Blood Corps, plotting to assassinate Premier Zhou, but their conspiracy failed under the protection of the Indonesian government and overseas Chinese. Throughout the conference, Premier Zhou worked tirelessly, using every opportunity to make friends, managing to sleep only 13 hours over the seven-day period. Thanks to the efforts of the Chinese government delegation led by Zhou Enlai and Chen Yi, they eventually united the Asian and African representatives to establish the “Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence,” which became the basic norm for future international relations, solidifying the unshakeable position of the new China on the complex international political stage.
