PREMIER Wen Jiabao has urged greater efforts to alleviate poverty, preserve the environment and adjust the economic structure in southwest China's Guizhou Province.
Wen made the remarks during a two-day inspection tour to the province that ended on Sunday. The tour followed a previous visit to Yiliang, a county in Yunnan Province recently hit by earthquakes and a landslide.
Improving livelihoods in Guizhou will be symbolic of China's efforts to close the gap between the underdeveloped west and other regions in the country, Wen said.
He called on local government and residents of Guizhou to make arduous efforts for the province's future.
Wen visited the city of Bijie, approved by the State Council, or China's Cabinet, in 1988 as a "trial zone" for environmental protection, economic development and poverty alleviation, and expressed appreciation for achievements the city has made in the past two decades.
Wen also visited Weining, a county located in a remote mountainous area in the province and inhabited by people from various ethnic groups.
He visited an adobe house in the village of Dalu and talked with local residents about an ongoing government-subsidized housing renovation program in the village.
According to the villagers, the government's support has helped 53 of the village's 262 families renovate their houses.
Wen called for further implementation of the government's poverty alleviation policies, as well as more efforts to promote agricultural industries with local characteristics, increase farmers' incomes and improve living standards.
Wen urged continuous efforts in environmental protection and ecological preservation to secure sustainable development in the region.
Efforts being made to convert pastures into forests will help to conserve water resources, curb the spread of desertification, improve the ecological environment as well as increasing farmers' incomes, according to Wen.
