China and the island country of Fiji agreed on Tuesday to establish and strengthen the "Chinese-Fijian cooperative partnership."

Visiting Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao and his Fijian counterpart, Laisenia Qarase, held talks in the wake of Wen's arrival in Nadi, a tourist resort in Fiji, and announced the decision in a joint press statement that agreement had been reached to promote long term and healthy development of  bilateral relations in the 21st century.

Other achievements gained from the talks include Fiji's recognition of China's full market economy status and the formation of a joint economic and trade committee.

Despite the geographical distance between the two countries Premier Wen described the Chinese -Fijian relationship as "a model" between China and island countries.

Wen is the first Chinese head of government to visit such islands in the Pacific Ocean while Fiji is the first among the tiny island nations to establish diplomatic ties with China.

"Both in the Asia-Pacific region and in the category of developing countries there is basis and need for us to enhance bilateral ties," he told Qarase.

China will continue to develop ties with Fiji and support its efforts to develop the national economy, maintain social stability and promote the interests of island countries in the international arena, he said.

Qarase expressed satisfaction with the growth of bilateral ties and thanked China for the unselfish assistance to Fiji with its socio-economic development.

One topic covered in the talks was the Taiwan issue. Wen said the subject was closely related to China's core interests. "The one-China principle is the political foundation of Chinese-Fijian relations and a key to ensuring the further growth of bilateral ties," he said. He added that China appreciated Fiji's adherence to the one China policy and opposition to "Taiwan Independence."

Qarase reiterated that the Fijian government supported the one China policy and recognized the government of the People's Republic of China as the sole, legitimate government representing the whole of China includingTaiwan. 

Fiji opposed any attempt to create "two Chinas" or "one China, one Taiwan", and "Taiwan Independence", he said. Fiji would not have official contact with Taiwan and they would honor  these principles, he added.

After the talks the two governments signed a number of cooperative documents. Wen and Qarase attended the signing ceremony.

Fiji is the second-leg of Wen's four-nation tour which includes New Zealand and Cambodia. He flew to Fiji after concluding his visit to Australia earlier Tuesday.

Following is the full text of the joint communique:
