Answering a question on how to give Chinese people more dignity, Wen said that all people should be equal before the law, regardless of their occupation, assets, ethnic group or religious belief.

Every Chinese citizen shall enjoy full freedom and rights under the Constitution and laws, Wen said.

More help should be given to the disadvantaged groups, such as those disabled and with AIDS, he continued.

Wen said the country should constantly improve people's living standards through increasing production and deepening reform and opening-up, so as to let every Chinese live with greater dignity.
