Nation scores big results on UN millennium goals

Guilin - China's balanced development is helping it achieve the goals it set at the beginning of the millennium, said a representative of the United Nations.

"With development its priority, China has set its own goal of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way," said Silvia Morimoto, deputy country director of United Nations Development Programme China.

The millennium development goals were adopted at the Millennium Summit in September 2000, which was attended by the largest gathering of world leaders in history.
