ways.

We conducted open discussions through which unity and democracy is
promoted under theoretical and political guidance, and members of the National

Committee’s leading Party members’ group held talks with non-CPC members
with an attendance of 316. We organized 11 research tours for members who are
not in the CPC to locations such as the Saihanba Forest Farm and the three Gorges

Dam to learn from the spirit and achievements of these projects, held 10 briefings
on major issues of public concern, hosted 16 committee-member lecture programs,
arranged 26 awareness-raising tours for major and special tasks, and opened the

National Committee body to the public on two occasions. We explored effective

issues faced by CPPCC members and people from all walks of life as well as their

opinions and suggestions are reported in a timely manner. As a result, CPPCC
members’ suggestions on state affairs have been given greater importance and
their efforts to build consensus have produced positive results.

speeches and the CPC Central Committee’s decisions and plans, and mobilized

CPPCC committees at all levels, our participating organizations, and our members
to plunge themselves into epidemic prevention and control efforts.

Taking advantage of our mobile work platform, closed-door consultative
seminars, and our channels for handling proposals and reporting on social
conditions and public sentiment, we have made suggestions on such topics as

epidemic prevention and control, resumption of work and production,
stabilization of social expectations, and improvement of law-based governance.
And we have offered over 1,300 reports, opinions, and suggestions.

We held a biweekly consultative forum on eliminating the undesirable custom
