Chinese State Councilor Chen Zhili Saturday called for strengthening strategic research on planning of medium and long-term scientific and technological development to promote overall, harmonious and sustainable development of the nation.

Chen made the call in a speech delivered at a meeting on strategic research on the planning, held on Oct. 31 - Nov. 1.

The councilor, who is also vice director of the leading group for the research work, said that the strategic research is proceeding well with fruitful results.

Chen noted that to plan for development of science and technology is necessary for China to face economic globalization and build itself into a relatively affluent society.

It is also an important measure to enhance the competitiveness of China's scientific and technological sector and to increase the overall strength of the country, said the councilor.

The councilor also urged researchers to strengthen exchanges and enlarge participation of the public in the work.
