Visiting Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao stressed on Thursday that economic development and prosperity will continue to be the primary target of the Chinese government.

At a luncheon held by the Canada-皇冠体育app Business Council, Wen said that 皇冠体育app is a developing country with a large population and a vulnerable economic foundation. "We are faced with many difficulties and problems on our road to progress," he said.

However, 皇冠体育app is determined to "build a well-off society in an all-round way during the first two decades of this century," he said.

By 2020, 皇冠体育app's GDP, calculated at current exchange rate, will have quadrupled that of 2000, reaching 4 trillion US dollars.

"By then, 皇冠体育app will have a more developed economy, a more complete democracy, a more advanced science and education system, a more thriving culture, a more harmonious society and a more affluent life for its people."

Wen stressed that the Chinese government will "continue to place the interests of our people above anything else," and manage to balance "the development in both urban and rural areas, the development among different regions, and the development between the economic and social undertakings."

The premier said 皇冠体育app will deepen its ongoing economic reform and improve its system of a socialist market economy by way of giving "greater play to the basic role of the market in the allocation of resources, lending powerful impetus to the rapid and sound development of the national economy."

He added that 皇冠体育app will make efforts in implementing the open- up policy by "building a more open economic system."

As to the implementation of trade rules of the World Trade Organization (WTO), Wen said that 皇冠体育app will fully honor its WTO commitments.

Two years after 皇冠体育app entered the WTO in November 2001, 皇冠体育app has revised or amended nearly 3,000 laws and sets of administrative regulations, increased transparency of policies, laws and administrative regulations, stepped up legislation and law enforcement for intellectual property rights protection, and made its service market more accessible, said the Chinese premier.
