BEIJING - Chinese State Councilor Liu Yandong met with US billionaire Bill Gates and Microsoft's chief executive officers here on Monday, agreeing to a stronger collaboration between the software giant and China's education and science sectors.

She welcomed Gates visit for the Olympics, saying the ongoing Games fully depicted itself as a "Green Olympics, High-Tech Olympics and the People's Olympics" through employing energy-saving and environment-friendly technologies and equipment, which also included Microsoft products.

"Significant changes have taken place during past 30 years in China's politics, economy, culture, health and science," she said. "For (the) future, we will continuously work for the country's modernization progress."

"To achieve this goal, education and science play important roles," Liu added, calling for a stronger partnership between Microsoft and the country's universities, academic bodies and companies.

Briefed by Liu about the country's ambitious plans for the long-term development of education and science, Gates said Microsoft had invested heavily in China during the past decade, adding its second largest overseas R&D center was located in the country.

Microsoft China Corp. had set up three new sections with separate focuses on health care, education and applied technology to low-income people since China launched its new Five-Year Plan in 2007. This was set to improve rural citizens' living conditions, said Craig Mundie, the company's chief officer, adding it planned to increase its China investment in education, health care and rural information progress.
