of the 14th Five-Year Plan, we held discussion sessions in the form of committee
members’ seminars, video conferences, and meetings to assess developments.
Building on all this, the Standing Committee held a special meeting for
engaging in consultations and offering suggestions in a focused setting. We held
special consultations on promoting cooperation on innovation in the
Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and on advancing cultural
programs in the implementation of the rural revitalization strategy.
We also carried out surveys and deliberations on several key issues. These
included improving the business environment, forestalling and defusing financial
risks in key sectors, fostering innovative high-tech enterprises, modernizing
agriculture and rural areas, training legal professionals well versed in international
norms, supporting flexible employment through various channels, promoting
ecological conservation and high-quality development in the Yellow River basin,
protecting the environment and ecosystems of grasslands, and protecting and
developing marine resources.
We helped achieve victory in the critical battle against poverty in various ways.
Special committees conducted joint surveys with the central committees of
democratic parties and the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce. We
had video chats with members of local CPPCC committees and the general public,
held tele-consultations on establishing a long-term mechanism to address relative
poverty, and monitored the handling of key proposals on consolidating poverty
alleviation achievements in the western region during the 14th Five-Year Plan
period, as part of our consultative oversight role. We promptly reported the results
of our consultative work, publishing 2,547 news bulletins on various issues. We
received a total of 5,974 proposals, 5,044 of which were accepted and filed.
3. Building broad consensus and creating positivity for unity and cooperation
We created new and better ways of conducting open discussions,
committee-member lecture programs, and awareness-raising tours for major and
special tasks, enhanced the framework for building consensus inside and outside
the CPC and among CPPCC members and people from different social sectors, and
developed the CPPCC as an important channel for addressing conflicts and
building consensus on our shared theoretical and political foundation.
