During his trip in this southwestern province, where a large ethnic

and research institutions, showing his interest in the implementation of
a scientific concept of development and the building of a harmonious
socialist society.
In talks with local business people, Hu called for fundamental change in
the mode of economic growth and readjustment in economic structure, in
order to maintain a sound biological environment while achieving economic
development and leading a rich life.

In his visit to local villages in Simao City, Hu questioned villagers on
issues of family income, power supply, drinking water, schooling, and
medical services.
He called on a service center for poor urbanites and a help center for
migrant workers from the countryside in Kunming, the provincial capital.
He urged trade unions to help protect the rights of migrant workers.
The places Hu visited included a village of the Dai People, where
villagers have improved their income through hard work, as well as a
village of Jinuo People, a small ethnic group.
During his stay in these two ethnic villages, Hu greeted medical workers
to celebrate the International Nurse Day on May 12.
Hu, who is also the Chairman of the Central Military Commission, had a
meeting with senior Army officers from the barracks of the Chinese
People's Liberation Army (PLA) in Kunming.
