Party Members' Seminar Xi Jinping: The Longer We Rule, the More We Must Be Vigilant

Following the closure of the Fifth Plenary Session, Xinhua News Agency reported on a seminar held on August 21 at Zhongnanhai for non-Communist Party members. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized the importance of governing the Party strictly to govern the state and the nation. He stressed the need to enhance a sense of awareness of potential dangers and remain vigilant, ensuring the Chinese Communist Party remains a strong leadership core for socialism with Chinese characteristics as time progresses.

Party outsiders' meeting concluded with Xi Jinping emphasizing the need for constant vigilance and comprehensive strict governance of the Communist Party. After the Fifth Plenary Session, the Xinhua News Agency published coverage of the meeting held on August 21 at Zhongnanhai where party outsiders provided their opinions on the measures to maintain stringent party governance. Xi stressed that stabilizing the country hinges on the Communist Party and its comprehensive strict governance. Since the 18th National Congress, the Party has been resolute in its fight against corruption, becoming stronger through revolutionary forging. However, with the complex changes in the global, national, and Party contexts, comprehensive strict governance faces new challenges and issues.

Xi also highlighted the need to continuously address prominent issues within the Party, emphasizing reliance on intrinsic party power for self-purification, self-enrichment, self-renewal, and self-improvement, as well as seeking public support and accepting public supervision. He urged parties and non-party figures to firmly support the leadership of the Communist Party and build a shared ideological and political foundation. Additionally, he encouraged them to contribute constructive advice and effectively perform their supervisory roles, becoming reliable advisors, supporters, and colleagues to the Communist Party.

This focus on governance and vigilance aligns with the ongoing efforts to consolidate and enhance the unique Chinese political system. The meeting underscores Xi Jinping's commitment to ensuring the Communist Party remains the robust leadership core for China's socialism endeavors amidst evolving domestic and international landscapes.
