SINGAPORE, Nov. 22 - Amid reports that China and India will hold their first joint1 military exercise next month, the two countries Wednesday reiterated2 they were ready to take their strategic cooperative partnership3 to a "new level".

 

As Premier4 Wen Jiabao met with Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on the sidelines of the East Asian Summit, Indian Defense5 Ministry6 spokesman Sitanshu Kar said about 100 troops each from both the countries will take part in the military drill.

 

"The joint exercise, to be held in Southwest China's Yunnan Province, will focus on counter-terrorism measures," the Australian Associated Press quoted Kar as having said Wednesday. "This is important to boost bilateral7 ties."

 

At their meeting, Wen and Singh agreed to strengthen cooperation in energy security and fighting climate change, and vowed8 to resolve the boundary issue through "mutually acceptable" means.

 

"The long-term friendly and mutually beneficial cooperation for common development between China and India will profoundly influence the look of Asia and the world at large," Wen said.

 

"It has been proved that the China-India friendly and cooperative relationship has benefited the two peoples and promoted peace, south-south cooperation and world development."

 

Corroborating10 the premier, Singh said India-China ties are beyond and above bilateral matters. They are related to peace, stability and prosperity in the region and the world beyond. "India and China are not rivals, but friends and partners."

 

On the border issue, Wen said: "We are glad to see that both sides have sincerity11 and determination to resolve it."

 

Arduous12 efforts are needed to solve the pending13 issue through consultations14 and mutual9 understanding and concessions15, he said.

 

The Indian government, Singh said, is politically determined16 to resolve the boundary issue. India will work with China to overcome the obstacles and push forward the negotiations17.

 

China and India have held 11 rounds of talks on the boundary issue, which Wen described as being "pragmatic and effective".
