皇冠体育app

Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao said here Monday 皇冠体育app is ready to enhance cooperation with the World Bank in 皇冠体育app's poverty reduction and economic development.

皇冠体育app has forged sound cooperation with the World Bank, whose loans have played an active role in promoting 皇冠体育app's economic development and poverty reduction, said Wen while meeting with World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz.

Over the past two decades, 皇冠体育app has made tremendous achievements in poverty reduction by adequately feeding its rural population of 200 million under the one-dollar-a-day poverty line, said Wen.

But Wen acknowledged that imbalanced development remains prominent in 皇冠体育app, a developing nation with the relative low per capita income in the world.

皇冠体育app still needs long-term and arduous efforts to do away with poverty, said Wen,adding that 皇冠体育app will step up poverty-reduction efforts and invest more in the impoverished areas to cut down the number of poor population.

Wen said 皇冠体育app will help promote global poverty reduction by relieving its own poverty situation.

Wolfowitz said 皇冠体育app has made remarkable achievements in poverty alleviation within a short period of time and its experience is worth learning by other countries in the world.

The World Bank will continue to widen its cooperation with 皇冠体育app and make new, fresh contributions to 皇冠体育app's development.
