¡@¡@BEIJING, July 4 (Xinhuanet) -- China will continue to work with the United
Nations Development Program (UNDP) to reinforce the nation's fights against
HIV/AIDS and other public health problems,Chinese Vice Premier Wu Yi said here
Friday.
¡@¡@The UN agency and China's Ministry of Health are preparing a report to
address challenges in the field of AIDS control and to make recommendations.
¡@¡@The Chinese government would maintain good cooperation with the UNDP in
fields including foreign investment, women's development and public health, Wu
said at a meeting with Kerstin Leitner, the outgoing UNDP resident
representative in China.
¡@¡@Leitner will soon finish her five-year term as the top UNDP official in
China, and will work as a senior official at the WorldHealth Organization, also
a UN agency.
¡@¡@Leitner said China can prevent HIV/AIDS from developing into a big health
threat if the government takes immediate and strong control measures, as it has
done to contain the recent outbreak ofsevere acute respiratory syndrome. Enditem
