BEIJING, May 23 (Xinhua) -- Chinese President Xi Jinping has underscored the importance of promoting high-quality cultural and ethical development to provide robust spiritual support for building a strong nation and achieving national rejuvenation.
Xi, also general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, made the remarks in a recent instruction, which was conveyed at a national conference on Friday that honored champions of cultural and ethical progress.
Noting coordinated material and cultural-ethical advancement is a defining feature of Chinese modernization, Xi emphasized the significance of applying the Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era to enhance cohesion, deepen conviction and promote core socialist values.
Xi called for continued efforts to enrich the cultural lives of the people and foster well-rounded personal development, alongside coordinated progress in cultural-ethical development across both urban and rural areas.
He also urged deeper reform and innovation, broader public participation, and the establishment of a long-term, collaborative mechanism for advancing cultural-ethical development.
Addressing Friday’s event, Cai Qi, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and a member of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee, stressed the need to leverage high-quality cultural-ethical progress to pool strength for advancing Chinese modernization.
