Li: Your question reflects the fact that many Westerners don't have a good understanding of China. 李鹏：这首先说明许多人对中国的国情不太了解。Experience has proved that the drive to make communities drug-free conforms to the situation in China and the strategic requirements of mobilizing the entire people to treat the drug problem comprehensively. 实践证明，创建“无毒社区”适合中国的国情，符合全民动员、综合治理的战略要求；China has a huge population, but a weak economic foundation with relatively inadequate resources per capita. These are its basic national conditions. 人口多，底子薄，人均资源相对不足，是中国的基本国情。Many people, little arable land, comparatively inadequate per-capita share of natural resources plus a relatively backward economy and culture -- these features spell out China's basic national conditions. 人口多，耕地少，人均资源相对不足，经济文化比较落后，这是中国的基本国情。Under China's current national conditions, it is an extremely arduous task to run the largest education provision in the world. 在中国的现实国情条件下，要办好世界上最大规模的教育，任务是十分艰巨的。The work is carried out according to China's actual conditions, not according to Western values. 中国的民主与法制建设是按中国的国情进行的，不能按西方的价值观进行。Such, then, is the character of present-day Chinese society and the state of affairs in our country.这就是现时中国社会的性质，这就是现时中国的国情。Proceeding from its concrete conditions, China has adopted various measures to rehabilitate addicts, taking compulsory measures as the main principle. 中国从国情出发，以强制戒毒为主体，采取多种办法帮助吸毒人员戒除毒瘾。On one hand, we will adhere to and continually improve the basic experience that suits China's specific conditions and that has proved effective in practice; 一方面对适合中国国情，实践证明行之有效的基本经验要坚持并不断地加以完善；The kind of democratic government we need today is neither democracy of the old type nor yet democracy of the socialist type, but New Democracy which is suited to the conditions of present-day China.现在，我们中国需要的民主政治，既非旧式的民主，又还非社会主义的民主，而是合乎现在中国国情的新民主主义。
