The one-day meeting, to be held Thursday in the Indonesian capital, has been organized by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations. Wen Jiabao is expected to exchange views with leaders from related countries and international organizations on relief efforts, reconstruction and disaster prevention. Meanwhile, Wen Jiabao will hold separate talks with leaders from the countries severely hit by the tsunamis. The third batch of Chinese relief supplies to Indonesia worth over 480 thousand US dollars also arrived in Jakarta on Wednesday. The Chinese government added another installment of over 60 million US dollars to the tsunami-hit countries after donating aid materials worth 2.5 million US dollars shortly after the tsunami tragedy occurred in late December.
