China adheres to reform and development (Xinhua) Updated: 2006-03-20 09:32 China will adhere to reform
and development so as to realize a harmonious society in the five years from
2006 to 2010, Chinese Vice Premier Zeng Peiyan said on Sunday.
Addressing the opening ceremony of China Development Forum 2006, Zeng said
it is a major task for China to realize a harmonious society that is base on
scientific development in its process of modernization. The development
that China seeks, he said, is a development for the people, in the fundamental
interest of the people and depends on the people. Development should be
comprehensive, including economic, political, cultural and social construction,
he said. The development of rural and urban areas, coastal and inland
areas, and economic and environmental sectors should all be harmonious, he
said. It is also should be cooperative and win-win for China and other
countries. Zeng cited six measures that China will take to realize the
above goals: China will invest more in the countryside to improve its
basic conditions. Surplus laborers in rural areas should move to urban
areas. China will continue to upgrade its industrial structure. The
country will take equipment manufacturing as a key industry and strengthen
elementary industries and build more infrastructure projects. China will
save energy, protect the environment and promote clean manufacturing.
China will promote the harmonious development between different regions.
China will improve the policy of employment and systems of social security,
education, and public health. China will further deepen reforms and
expand contact on a variety of fronts with other countries. The two-day
forum, with a theme of "China: Promoting Economic Development and Social
Harmony," has been held annually since 2000.
