BEIJING, June 30 -- President Xi Jinping has called on secretaries of the Communist Party of China (CPC) committees at the county level to be loyal to the Party, take initiatives in economic development and serve the people wholeheartedly.
Xi made the remarks on Tuesday when meeting with county-level Party secretaries who were honored for their outstanding work.
While congratulating the honored, Xi extended greetings to all Party members and those working in the Party system ahead of the 94th anniversary of CPC's founding on July 1.
"When counties are governed, the world is in peace," Xi cited an ancient Chinese saying. "In our Party's organizational structure and the country's regime structure, the county is a key part that links higher and lower levels as well as a significant foundation for economic development, people's livelihoods and social stability."
According to Xi, honoring outstanding county Party secretaries aims to mobilize all Party members and officials to learn from these examples and do their jobs more competently and serve the people well.
