The abrogation of the term "No 1 Resolution" by the People's Political Consultative Conference in Zhejiang Province serves as a positive move towards promoting democracy and soliciting more excellent motions, says an article in Beijing Youth Daily. An excerpt follows: At a recent session of the Zhejiang Provincial People's Political Consultative Conference, the term "important resolutions" was used to replace "No 1 Resolution," which often dominated past conference agendas. Looking back to previous conferences, members attached a lot of significance to whoever raised the "No 1 Resolution," which would guarantee instant star status at the conference. But there are two sides to the coin. When the "No 1 Resolution" was confirmed, other excellent resolutions were left behind or even neglected altogether. Other proposals, no matter how innovative or constructive, had to give way to the "No 1 Resolution." Today's social development involves multiple factors, and politics, economics, science and technology, education and culture are all of crucial importance to society. Also, among different industries, it is difficult to judge which is of "No 1" importance. Thus the replacement of "No 1 Resolution" with "important resolutions" by Zhejiang Province's political consultative conference is a positive move. The term change bears a practical and far-reaching exemplary significance. The move will create an active atmosphere for more members to raise and come up with more excellent proposals at the conference. Zhejiang's move is a good beginning for the construction of democracy and the development of the political consultative conference system. Other regions should follow suit.
