Strengthening Governance Ability

The report to the 19th CPC National Congress pointed out that to lead a large socialist country of more than 1.3 billion people toward prosperity, the CPC must demonstrate political strength and competence, which will be further tested as it promotes the great cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics for a new era.

Improving governance ability requires:

? embracing continuous learning, and building a Marxist party that values learning and a country that encourages learning;

? sharpening leadership skills, and developing and implementing guidelines and policies to ensure the Party’s role of leadership and coordination in all areas;

? promoting reform and innovation, including applying innovation outcomes to practical projects and expanding the use of the internet and information technology;

? promoting evidence-based development to break new ground in development efforts by applying new thinking;

? enhancing rule-based governance, developing and improving the Party’s rules and regulations, and strengthening leadership by the Party over government bodies;

? making greater efforts to engage with the people through innovative mechanisms, and promoting political consciousness among civil society actors, so that they will be in a better position to play their role as progressive organizations, and better represent the people;

? improving effectiveness in implementing programs and projects, by combining speed with perseverance and meticulousness; and

? managing risks, by improving risk prevention and control mechanisms, and tackling challenges head-on.
