An article by Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, on the implementation of requirements for the Party’s self-reform will be published on Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The article by Xi, also the Chinese president and chairman of the Central Military Commission, will be published in this year’s 23rd issue of the Qiushi Journal, a flagship magazine of the CPC Central Committee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Strengthening full and rigorous Party self-governance by starting with Party conduct is an important experience the Party has acquired for its self-reform in the new era, the article says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Noting the arduous tasks in realizing Chinese modernization and a complicated governance environment facing the Party, the article stresses the importance of enhancing understanding of the Party’s self-reform, which will improve the Party’s image and public trust, motivate Party members and officials, and ensure robust political support for high-quality development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The article also says that, for the Party to advance its self-reform, it is essential for Party members and officials to enhance Party consciousness — with a focus on consolidating their ideals and convictions, loyalty to the Party, and commitment to the people, and enhancing their moral character and integrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meanwhile, Party members and officials must bear in mind at all times that all power is granted by the people and must be exercised responsibly, it says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Noting that rigorous oversight of discipline compliance is a powerful instrument in the Party’s self-reform, the article stresses the importance of a resolute crackdown on violations of Party discipline and the law with forceful means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The article also urges officials at all levels to resolutely fulfill their Party governance responsibilities and effectively foster a culture of integrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
