How to practice the 'mass line' in the new era

China is the largest and fastest-growing developing country in the world thanks to the capable leadership of the Communist Party of China, which accords the highest value to and prioritizes the interests of the people. It is for this reason that the Party has been able to unite 1.4 billion people and lead China on a sustainable development path.

The Party is committed to fighting for the well-being of the Chinese people and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. "Serving the people wholeheartedly" has been the fundamental purpose of the Party since its founding, more so since the founding of New China in 1949.

The commitment has its roots in the Party's people-centered approach and the socialist democracy system, which includes the people's congress system－China's basic political system－consultative democracy system, regional ethnic autonomy system, and the community-level democracy system. These systems guarantee that in the People's Republic all powers belong to the people. The commitment also comes from socialism with Chinese characteristics developed by the CPC and the people since the launch of reform and opening-up in 1978. The Party has supervised the economic system reform, too, over the past more than four decades.
