Symposium Held on Information Technology and Western Development

The Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology held a symposium Tuesday in Xi'an, capital city of northwest Shaanxi Province, on information technology and the development of the country's vast west.

Over 100 participants, including over a dozen noted experts and professors, exchanged their views on how the western regions should explore information technology to achieve leaps forward in development.

Information technology is beginning to demonstrate its enormous powers of propulsion for the economic development of the country's west, the symposium was told.

For instance, the country's information network of productive forces has been welcomed by western enterprises for bridging the enterprises in the western and eastern regions.

The pilot digital library project is enabling people in the west to read books stored in libraries in all parts of the country.

Space information technology, such as remote sensing and the geological information system, has offered technical support to the program to revert farmland into forests and grassland.
