Theory guidance to meet challenges of today
The Communist Party of China adheres to a people-centered development philosophy and dedicates itself to serving the people wholeheartedly. With the support of the people, the country has built a moderately prosperous society in all respects.
The ongoing thematic education campaign within the CPC aims to enhance the Party's governance ability and leadership to ensure steady progress now that the country is on the path to modernization.
Launched in April, the Party-wide thematic education campaign to study and implement Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era focuses on guiding officials, at and above the county and director level, in the right direction by ensuring they have a thorough understanding of the Party's new theories.
The 20th National Congress of the CPC last October drew up a blueprint for comprehensively building a modern socialist country. Yet it remains a challenging task for the Party and the nation to achieve this goal. Thus, it is necessary for CPC officials to effectively grasp the guidance of the Party's new theories in order to strengthen their ability to address the urgent needs of the people and crack the thorny issues that need to be overcome.
The history of the CPC speaks volumes about the reasons behind the Party's growth and strength. The Party has always provided strong theoretical training for its members and officials, so they can remain firm in their joint faith with a strong will and coordinated actions.
"With a history of 101 years and more than 96 million members, the CPC faces the challenge of continuously strengthening itself to lead the Chinese people to create a better life," said Xiao Ruining, an assistant research fellow at the China Academy of Discipline Inspection and Supervision. The new theories provide strength for the times.
In addition to firming up the ideals and convictions of Party members and officials, the education campaign will prompt the Party to work hard to solve problems. As long as the CPC and the people stand together, think together and work together, no difficulty can stop China's solid steps toward national rejuvenation.
Extensive fact-finding activities are an important part of the thematic education campaign. Officials are visiting factories and grassroots units, such as hospitals and universities, and working to translate research findings into concrete solutions.
