The Chinese people were virtually denied human fights when the ＂three large mountains＂-- imperialism, feudalism and the bureaucratic bour- geoisie - oppressed them.

Comments from Ambassadors to China

Belt and Rod Initiative Boosts Infrastructure Construction in Africa H.E.Edward Boateng Ghanaian Ambassador to ChinaChina’s Government Work Report is rich in information that not only summarizes development achievements from 2018, but also proposes detailed planning for further development in2019 and beyond.

The Centenary of the CPC: Leading the Times by Grasping the Laws and Trends of Historical Development

Discussions on grasping the laws and trends of historical development take a fundamental theoretical position in the scientific system of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era.Xi Jinping’s important statements have systematically answered such questions as what type of laws and trends of historical development should be followed,how did the Party follow the laws and trends of historical development in its centennial history,and how should the laws and trends of historical development be followed in a new era.The birth of the Communist Party of China(CPC),the victory of China’s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression,the founding of the People’s Republic of China,and the unveiling of a new era for reform and opening up and socialism with Chinese characteristics are all the results of grasping the laws and trends of historical development.Over the past century,the Party has followed the laws and trends of historical development and continuously advanced the sinicization of Marxism on the basis of adhering to the unification between truth and values.In pursuit of“putting people first,”the Party has courageously been reforming itself and made relentless progress in the great endeavor of Party building.History shows that a keen appreciation of the laws and trends of historical development is an important sign of political maturity for a proletarian party.Only by applying Marxism according to current times and conditions will we keep abreast with the laws and trends of historical development.We should establish a broader concept of history and identify the laws and trends of historical development from the interactions and linkages between China and the rest of the world.We must recognize and promote the outstanding role of great leaders in steering the country in line with the laws and trends of historical development.

WHY THERE HAS BEEN AN OVERWHELMING FAILURE TO UNDERSTAND CPC IN WEST

The Communist Party of China(CPC)is like no other party in the world.It requires us to rethink the very idea of what a political party is.It is a phenomenon intrinsic to China.It is ineluctably Chinese.The CPC’s extraordinary success is because it found a way during its 100-year history of combining a huge reforming capacity with a profound rootedness in Chinese society and culture.If the imperial dynasties defined Chinese governance for two millennia,the CPC has assumed a not dissimilar importance in China since 1949.
