MIANYANG, Sichuan Province, June 7 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao on Saturday visited with some earthquake survivors who had resettled in public camps in Sichuan Province's Mianyang City.     For refugees staying in low-lying lands in the southwest Chinese province, they were also at threat from the huge "quake lakes" bursting their banks.     The 8.0-magnitude tremor on May 12, which had claimed at least 69,134 lives to date, had created the threatening 200 million cubic meter Tangjiashan quake lake which overlooks Mianyang, about 70 meters above the city.     The local government is currently relocating more than 210,000 people to safer grounds.     In his third visit to the province since the quake, Wen said ina camp harboring hundreds of the quake homeless, "I hope you would understand our efforts to resettle you away from your home to a relatively safe place because the swelling quake lake is so dangerous."     "Yes, we understand," the locals replied. Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao (R Front) embraces Wang Shichen, a 12-year-old primary school pupil of grade six, when he inspects the resettlement at Meirui Textile Company in Mianyang, a city in quake-hit southwest China's Sichuan Province, June 6, 2008    "We are trying all out to drain the quake lake in accordance with our contingency plans but anything could happen under such complicated climatic, geologic and environmental conditions," Wen said.     "We appreciate all your efforts and cooperation with the government to defuse this time bomb."     "We are grateful to you, Mr Premier," 60-year-old villager Wu Xiaofeng said.     "The priority of our resettlement task is to make sure everyone will be safe," Wen replied.     "You visited Sichuan thrice, and you should take good care of yourself," a young man chimed in.     "It's my duty," Wen said. "I'm less unsettling after hearing your consideration. I'm afraid people suffering from so much might become jittery and impatient. Are you?" he asked.     "It's okay," one woman replied.     "This is a massive disaster to not only the nation, but also to everyone here," he said. Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao (2nd R) visits quake-affected people at the resettlement in the Mianyang Branch of Sichuan Conservatory of Music, in Mianyang, a city in quake-hit southwest China's Sichuan Province, June 6, 2008Wen then walked into a makeshift police station to ask the officers to be extra alert while patrolling the residence camps at this unusual time.     After shaking hands with an old woman who was sitting on the lower part of a bunk-bed in a big tent, Wen asked whether she felt uncomfortable staying with others.     Showing consideration for others, 87-year-old Mao Fengying said, "Rescue workers from the armed forces are really exhausted. They need better living conditions in the tents."     Touched by this request, Wen then passionately asked the armed forces commanders to improve the living conditions of soldiers.     He then bid farewell to Mao to leave for the next site.     Twelve-year-old Wang Shichen raised a question for Wen. "How long do we have to stay here and when shall we go back home?"     "I think you might go (home) after the drainage," he said.     "Could I hug you?" the boy said after his question. Wen hugged him immediately.     At a temporary retirement home in the camp, Wen greeted 100-year-old Chen Jiazhen. "You would work hard," the centurion told Wen. "Of course, I will," the premier responded with sincerity.     Seeing an old man writing a letter of gratitude to the armed forces rescuers and volunteers, Wen said he was also willing to write some words.     "Respect and strength," he wrote on the reverse side of the old man's letter.

According to the "common aspiration and prospects for cross-strait peace and development," Taiwan compatriots' participation in international activities would be discussed with priority given to participation of the World Health Organization's (WHO) activities after the cross-strait consultations were resumed.     "I believe that if two sides can work together and create conditions, solutions will be found to these issues through consultation," Hu said.     He stressed that on developing cross-strait relations, the CPC has always adhered to the principal of safeguarding the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation and safeguarding the common interests of all Chinese people, including Taiwan compatriots.     "We care for, respect and believe in the Taiwan compatriots. As to the misunderstanding and suspicion harbored by some Taiwan compatriots concerning the cross-strait relations, we will not only give our understandings but also take active measures to dissolve them," he said.     To realize the peaceful development of cross-strait relations, the more people unite with us, the better, he said.     Wu said the two parties needed to continue strengthening exchanges and dialogues in the future, hold economic, trade and cultural forums or peace forums at appropriate time, and continue to have inter-party exchanges at the grassroot level, so as to make the two parties' exchange platform more solid and impact more far-reaching.     After the cross-strait consultations resume, Wu said, the regularized consultations between the two sides and the two parties' exchange platform should play roles at the same time.     Wu expressed hope that the two parties would make joint efforts and together with the compatriots from across the strait, create peace, promote stability and development and share prosperity.     Hu stressed that under the new circumstances, the two parties should expand exchanges and bring the role of exchange platform between the two parties into full play.     He expressed hope that the two parties can bear in mind the welfare of compatriots across the strait and the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation, unswervingly promote the peaceful development of the cross-strait relations, and make joint efforts to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.     Also present at the meeting were senior mainland officials including Wang Qishan, Ling Jihua, Wang Huning, Dai Bingguo and Chen Yunlin.     Hu hosted a banquet for Wu and his delegation after the meeting.
