ˇˇˇˇBEIJING, Sept. 5 (Xinhuanet) -- China will continue to actively participate in and promote international anti-terrorism cooperation, Chinese Foreign Ministry Kong Quan said Thursday.

ˇˇˇˇThe Chinese government has adopted a series of measures to fight terrorism after the Sept. 11 Incident, Kong said.

ˇˇˇˇIn the multi-lateral field, China has participated in and promoted the United Nations General Assembly and Security Council to adopt resolutions against terrorism.

ˇˇˇˇIn the bilateral area, China has formed a consultation mechanism with quite a few countries, including the United States, Britain, Russia, France, India and Pakistan.

ˇˇˇˇDomestically, China has taken measures to fight and prevent terrorism in many areas such as finance, law enforcement, civil aviation safety and border entry and exit, the spokesman said.

ˇˇˇˇThe Chinese government will continue to strengthen international cooperation and learn from other countries in the fight against terrorism.

ˇˇˇˇRemarkable progresses have been made by various countries in anti-terrorism cooperation over the past year, but "there is still a long way to go," Kong said.
