TIME is reputed to pass more quickly with increasing age.With the People’s Republic of China(PRC)in its eighth decade,it seems only yesterday that the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China(CPC)held in 2017 was looking forward to 2020,2035 and beyond.So much has happened and so much has been achieved since then.Milestones have been accomplished:the 14th Five-Year Plan;the introduction of the first ever Civil Code;the pledge to achieve carbon neutrality before 2060;the eradication of rural poverty,and the focus on common prosperity.
