The 60th anniversary of the movement to promote military-government and military-civilian solidarity in China was commemorated Friday at a high-profile seminar in Beijing.

President Jiang Zemin, who is also chairman of the Central Military Commission, sent a message, which reads, "Carry forward the glorious tradition of the movement and enhance military-government and military-civilian solidarity".

Luo Gan, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, attended the seminar.

Vice-Chairman of the Central Military Commission Guo Boxiong said the movement initiated in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia border region 60 years ago had greatly contributed to China's peace and prosperity.

To fulfill the tasks set by the 16th National Congress of the CPC, China needed a secure and stable international and domestic environment. This called for solidarity and concerted efforts of the military, the government and the people, said Guo.

He urged continued and more innovative efforts in this field.

The movement, started in 1942, played an important role during the War of Resistance against Japan, and later it was further developed. It calls for the army to support the government and cherish the people, and for the government to support the army and give preferential treatment to families of soldiers and martyrs.
