Sunday (23/10/2022).
"Xi Jinping Thoughts" refers to his ideology enshrined in the party charter and the previous congress in 2017. In a brief speech at the close of the CCP congress, Xi said the constitutional revision establishes clear requirements to uphold and strengthen the party's overall leadership.
President Xi Jinping has emphasized the central role of the Communist Party, expanding state control over society as well as the economy. In his speech, he said the party, which marked its 100th anniversary last year, was still in its prime. "The Chinese Communist Party is once again embarking on a new journey in which it will face new tests," he said.
