"Peace is the prerequisite for development, and development is the key to solving all problems. Peace and development are the inevitable choices of China's modernization effort," said Cai Wu, Minister of the State Council Information Office at a welcoming banquet of Sino-British Media Forum.

 

China sticks to peaceful development, which means to develop itself while safeguarding world peace, and boost the world peace through self-development, the minister pointed out.

 

On development, China aimed to build a relatively well-off society during the first two decades of this century, noted Cai, adding that "We plan to quadruple China's year-2000 GDP to about US$4 trillion by 2020, with the per capita GDP reaching about US$3,000."

 

China would try to further develop its economy, enhance the democratic system and improve its science, education and cultural development, so as to make it a harmonious society where people enjoy a better life, continued Cai.

 

Defining building a harmonious society as a domestic goal, the minister then talked about the country's external goal of promoting a harmonious world with long-lasting peace and common prosperity.

 

"Our objective of building a harmonious world is to build a democratic, fair, just, honest, friendly, vigorous and orderly society that is ruled by law and where humans and nature coexist harmoniously," said he.

Chinese President Hu Jintao and British Prime Minister Tony Blair met four times in 2005 alone after the two countries decided to establish the comprehensive strategic partnership in May, 2004, elaborated Cai.

 

"After undergoing twists and turns in the past half a century, Sino-British relationship is maturing and is at the best times in history, Sino-British relationship is maturing and is at the best times in history," said he.

 

On the economic front, Britain is China's third largest trade partner in the EU, with bilateral trade volume exceeding US$30 billion by the end of 2006, the minister noted.

 

Cai went on to reveal that the two sides have reached an initial agreement that "China Festival 2008," which will include series of large-scale Chinese cultural activities, will be held in Britain next year.

 

The event followed a Chinese Culture Year in 2004 and Chinese culture seasons in the pursuing years, as well as various British cultural activities held in China, including the display of the collection of the British Museum.
