Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao reiterated the significance of upholding a scientific concept of development to achieve coordinated development in the country, during his inspection tour in east China's Jiangsu Province from Oct. 22 to 24.

"We should seriously study and implement the essence of the Fifth Session of the Sixteenth Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, adhere to Deng Xiaoping Theory and the important thought of 'Three Represents' as the guiding ideology, implement a scientific concept of development throughout the modernization drive, and make substantial efforts to shift economic and social development onto the track of a human-based and coordinated development," he said in talks with local people.

Wen, also a Standing Committee member of the CPC Central Committee Political Bureau, visited some companies, schools, communities, and talked with local officials and ordinary people, with the company of state councilors Hua Jianmin and Chen Zhili.

Upon hearing reports from local officials, Wen praised the province for its achievements in building a well-off society and in modernization drive. He expected Jiangsu to make greater efforts and achieve faster development.

The premier showed a special interest in the employment of university graduates from poor families, during a visit to the Nanjing Talents Service Center, where he talked with two graduates who had found jobs with the help of the job agency.

The premier said it is "very necessary" for the job agency to set up a special cell to help these university graduates.

Wen also visited an elementary school in Nanjing, which particularly accommodates children of transient workers from rural areas. These children should grow up under a sound environment of equality and care, he said.

At the home of Li Wang'an, in a local community known as the Workers' New Village, the premier talked with the hosts to learn about their living conditions. Afterwards, he urged local officials to do things more concrete and useful for ordinary people, in order to make residential areas safe, harmonious, civilized and prosperous.

"Communities are the cells of a city," he said. "Stability of a city relies on the peace of communities."
