China's Premier on Role of Construction Workers from Countryside
Beijing, May 2 (KCNA) -- Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao referred to the role of construction workers who migrated to cities from their rural hometowns on Sunday when going round a housing construction site in Beijing on the occasion of May Day.

New-type construction workers appeared in the country in the course of urbanization, he noted, saying that construction is unthinkable without those workers.

The party and government give high priority to the issue of those construction workers, he said, hoping that they would study hard and get accustomed to their business to become competent working people.

He stressed the need to take hold on the housing issue as big problem related to the people's life and push forward the construction.
