Premier Wen Jiabao says China's nuclear power construction has entered a crucial stage.

During an inspection to Dayawan Nuclear Power Plant in south China's Guangdong province recently, Wen Jiabao said relevant government departments should establish an overall plan for their construction and confirm the scale and layout of nuclear power projects.

He says it's necessary to introduce advanced technology from overseas to improve China's atomic energy research and development capacity.

He says all nuclear power projects should be constructed with a focus on security and quality.

This year is the 50th anniversary for China's nuclear power industry.
