BEIJING: Premier Wen Jiabao on Wednesday sent a congratulatory message to Yukio Hatoyama after his election as Japan's 93rd prime minister.

"As each other's important neighbor, efforts to deepen the mutual trust and cooperation between China and Japan are in keeping with the fundamental interests of both nations and their peoples," Wen said in his message.
