While attending a press conference, Kang Rixin, managing director of China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC), briefed the reporters with the latest development and international exchange and cooperation of nuclear industry in China.

Kang noted that nuclear is a kind of clean and safe energy. CNNC has taken safety measures that have been stipulated by International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and generally acknowledged in the international community. Experts with State environment Protection Administration and other relevant departments closely examine the construction of nuclear power plants in accordance to the international standard. CNNC opens its door to general public, welcoming everyone either to visit the nuclear power plant or to lend them any constructive suggestions on safe operation.

"In the past years, CNNC has been taking every opportunity and occasion to publicize the technique of nuclear power plant in China. Now the general public has understood the safety of nuclear power, therefore, all of them support the construction of nuclear power plants," added Kang.
