President Hu Jintao on Friday stressed maintaining national integrity, ethnic unity and social stability in Tibet, and other Chinese leaders also joined with national legislators in panel discussions.
During a panel discussion with legislators from the Tibet autonomous region at the ongoing legislative session, Hu urged the consolidation of the foundation for the construction of a socialist new Tibet.
"Stability and harmony should be maintained in Tibet, with social management being enhanced and improved," he told the deputies to the National People's Congress.
