The CPC Jiangsu Provincial Committee held a meeting Monday in Nanjing to summarize the campaign of Party history learning and education. Wu Zhenglong, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, attended the meeting and delivered a speech. Xu Kunlin, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Acting Governor, presided over the meeting.
Wu Zhenglong pointed out that the campaign on studying the Party's history among all Party members is a major strategic decision made by the party central committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core, based on a new starting point in the century-old party history and with a view to creating a new situation in the development of the cause.
Wu stressed that the launching of the Party-wide education campaign was a major strategic decision by the CPC Central Committee to open up new prospects for the cause of the Party and the State from the new starting point of the centenary of the founding of the CPC.
Through the campaign, the whole Party has notably enhanced its historical consciousness and confidence, and has significantly strengthened its capacity to innovate, unite and fight, he added.
Recognizing the marked effects and major achievements that the campaign has had, the CPC provincial chief said that all Party members and officials had received profound political, ideological and intellectual education, and that the Party's creativity, unity and ability to struggle have been greatly improved.
He called for reflecting on the successful experience of the education campaign, and setting up regular mechanisms for Party history learning and education to continuously build on the long-term effects of the campaign.
Wu Zhenglong underlined the need to implement the decisions of the sixth plenary session of the 19th Central Committee of the CPC to enable all Party members and officials to fully understand the Party's innovative theories and strengthen their confidence and determination to pursue the development path with Chinese characteristics and realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
Efforts should be made to rally and lead Chinese people of all ethnic groups on the new journey with new achievements, and to prepare for the 20th CPC National Congress with concrete actions, said the CPC provincial chief.
He also stressed the importance of consolidating the achievements of the Party history learning and education campaign.
Efforts should be made to guide all CPC members and officials to understand why the Party, Marxism and socialism with Chinese characteristics work effectively in China, and make them faithfully implement the policies and decisions of the CPC Central Committee with a united will and action, in order to make new achievements in the new era, Wu said.
The CPC Central Committee launched the campaign of Party history learning and education early last year to ensure that all CPC members remain true to the Party's founding mission so that they will unswervingly work to seek happiness for the people and the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with even firmer ideals and beliefs.
The education campaign was viewed as a timely and necessary move for the Party to draw strength from its glorious past to advance the country's modernization drive despite the increasing challenges ahead.
