Xi urges efforts for new achievements
Xi said that since the 18th CPC National Congress in 2012, he has visited almost all major sacred revolutionary sites and memorials related to revolutionary history during his inspection tours nationwide.
He urged efforts to safeguard the country established by the revolutionary martyrs and develop it well, calling for new achievements that can live up to the expectations of the revolutionary forefathers, stand the test of time and are worthy of the people.
He underlined the importance of Marxism in guiding the Party in its centennial development, saying the reason why the CPC can get things done and why socialism with Chinese characteristics is so good is fundamentally because Marxism really works.
The wide spread of Marxism in China gave birth to the CPC, and it provided the Party with a scientific worldview and methodology, as well as a powerful ideological weapon to understand and transform the world, he said, urging efforts to educate the whole Party to consistently follow the guidance offered by the scientific theories.
Xi called on all Party members and officials to firm up their ideals and beliefs and overcome difficulties to secure new victories on the new journey of fully building a modern socialist country.
He required all CPC members to stay committed to the Party's original aspiration and founding mission and to uphold the people-centered development philosophy, noting that for the Party, which has governed a country for a long time, nothing is more dangerous than deviating from its original aspiration and becoming out of touch with the people.
