BEIJING,
June 25 (Xinhua) -- Chinese President Hu Jintao on Monday once again stressed
the importance of implementing the scientific concept of development, promoting
social harmony and building an overall well-off society, ahead of the 17th
national congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) later this year.
"Under the current international backdrop, China
faces unprecedented opportunities and challenges, which require us to have a
clear view of today's China and the world, meet new demands of development and
new expectations of the public, draw experience and make scientific guidelines,"
said Hu.
Hu, also general secretary of the CPC Central
Committee, made the remarks when addressing a senior course for ministerial
officials and provincial heads at the CPC Central Committee's Party School.
He told the officials that all Party members should
"remain sober" and always keep in mind the real situation of the country.
Top legislator Wu Bangguo, Premier Wen Jiabao and
other senior leaders including Jia Qinglin, Wu Guanzheng, Li Changchun and Luo
Gan attended the meeting presided over by Vice-President Zeng Qinghong, who is
also president of the Party school.
Hu stressed that it was necessary to scientifically
analyze the opportunities and challenges that China was facing in economic
globalization, and the scientific concept of development should be implemented
in the process of industrialization, urbanization, marketization and
internationalization.
Since the 16th CPC national congress in 2002, the CPC
Central Committee proposed the scientific concept of development which focuses
on a people-oriented, overall, coordinated and sustainable development, said Hu,
also chairman of the Central Military Commission.
He reminded officials to combine the policy of reform
and opening-up with a Chinese-characteristic socialist development.
As to the economy, Hu emphasized the building of an
energy-efficient, environment-friendly society and the improvement of the basic
economic system centered on public ownership while "unswervingly" encouraging
and maintaining non-public forms.
"To develop socialist democracy is our long-term
goal," he said. "The government should expand political participation channels
for ordinary people, enrich the forms of participation and promote a scientific
and democratic decision-making process."
Hu said the government should focus on problems of
immediate interest to the public, such as education, employment, social
securities and health care.
The president urged officials to improve their
ideology, leadership and lifestyles, oppose formalism, bureaucratism and
extravagance, and fight a long-time, tough war against corruption.
"All Party members should unite to strive for the
success of the 17th Party congress and the building of an overall well-off
society," the president urged at the end of the speech.
