Chinese Foreign Ministry said on Tuesday that the Chinese government is deeply concerned by the Dalai Lama's planned visit to a border region between India and China.

Spokesman Ma Zhaoxu repeated an earlier condemnation of the Dalai Lama for separatist activities.

Ma said the scheme to harm China's relations with India would come to nothing.

He said Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao and his Indian counterpart Man-mohan Singh have agreed to focus on promoting healthy and stable relations.
