Activities mark CPC's first century

A number of activities are being held in the northern municipality of Tianjin to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China.

Last month, Liu Chunlei, executive deputy director of the Publicity Department of the Tianjin Municipal Committee of the CPC, told a news conference that the commemorations of the events and figures that reflect the great spirit of the Party over its 100-year history are of great importance.

"This series of events reminds communists of their original aspiration; to seek happiness for the Chinese people and the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. And they have helped communists unite and lead the people to embark on a new journey to build Tianjin into a modern socialist city," he said.
