BEIJING -- President Hu Jintao Monday stressed the necessity to promote development and stability in Tibet when joining a discussion with legislators from the Tibet Autonomous Region.
"We must combat separatism and safeguarding national unity, so that Tibet, now basically stable, will enjoy lasting peace and stability," said Hu during a panel discussion of the National People's Congress (NPC). He urged Tibet authorities to implement the central government's policies on Tibet, focus on development and stability issues, attain an economic great-leap-forward, safeguard "national security" and "social stability", and keep improving people's living standard, in order for them to make new progress in the building of "a unified, democratic, prosperous and harmonious socialistic new Tibet."
The President urges Tibet to vigorously advance the program of building "socialist new villages," develop industries with distinguished features" and strengthen ecological and environmental protection. Hu expressed the hope that Tibet should embark on more projects that will directly result in the improvement of people's life and working conditions, particularly those of farmers and herdsmen. The government must also give priority to addressing people's immediate needs, so that people of all ethnic groups in Tibet will be able to share the fruit of development, he said. |
