[imtoken手机钱包app下载]Remarks at Press Conference （Wang Jianxin

I will mainly share my understanding about the strategic deployments of the report to the 20th CPC National Congress on unswervingly exercising full and rigorous Party self-governance, improving Party conduct, enforcing Party discipline, and combating corruption.

Third, we will continue to take strict steps to improve Party conduct and enforce Party discipline. In the new era of exercising full and rigorous Party self-governance, we kicked off our efforts by formulating and implementing the central Party leadership's eight-point decision on improving conduct. In the past 10 years, we investigated and handled 761,000 cases for violating the eight-point decision and 683,000 people were given Party and administrative discipline punishments. The report once again warns the whole Party: Good conduct is critical to the survival of a governing party. We must maintain a close bond with the people. Party officials should conduct in-depth research and studies and immerse themselves in hard work, take concrete measures, and deliver solid outcomes. We should steadfastly implement the central Party leadership’s eight-point decision on improving conduct. We will go to great lengths to tackle recurrent problems of “the four malfeasances,” i.e., pointless formalities, bureaucratism, hedonism, and extravagance, and deal with the new features of pointless formalities and bureaucratism. We must make all-around efforts to tighten Party discipline. We will urge leading officials to be strict with themselves, earnestly fulfill their responsibilities, and conduct rigorous management within their jurisdictions. All violations of Party discipline, once identified, must be resolutely investigated and punished without hesitation or tolerance.

The report says right at the start of its fifteenth part that our Party has a pivotal role in building China into a modem socialist country in all respects and in advancing the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation on all fronts, and we must always stay alert and determined to tackle the special challenges that a large party like ours faces. Our Party, as the world’s largest political party and largest Marxist governing party with a history of 100 years, must always maintain solidarity and unity, preserve our Party membership's advanced nature and integrity, and stay as united as one piece of adamantine iron. The report demands that all of us in the Party bear in mind that full and rigorous Party self-governance is an unceasing endeavor and that self-reform is a journey to which there is no end. The Party must remain strict in exercising full and rigorous self-governance and keep sounding the bugle against corruption.

First, we will enhance political oversight with a focus to uphold the centralized, unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee. The leadership of the CPC is the defining feature of socialism with Chinese characteristics and upholding the centralized, unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee is the highest political principle. The report stresses that the Party’s leadership is comprehensive, systematic, and integrated, and therefore must be exercised in a comprehensive, systematic, and integrated way. Hence, it is imperative to uphold and strengthen the centralized, unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee as an important task in strengthening the Party politically and conduct concrete, targeted, and regular political oversight. We must ensure that the whole Party will acquire a deep understanding of the decisive significance of establishing Comrade Xi Jinping's core position on the Party Central Committee and in the Party as a whole and establishing the guiding role of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, firmly uphold Comrade Xi Jinping’s core position on the Party Central Committee and in the Party as a whole and uphold the Central Committee’s authority and its centralized, unified leadership, closely follow the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core in political stance, orientation, principles, and path. We must also ensure that all Party members gain a good command of the missions and tasks of the Party for the new journey of the new era and that the major thinking, viewpoints, strategies, and measures set forth at the 20th CPC National Congress achieve intended results.
