The 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) is a meeting of great significance in the new century and Jiang Zemin's report on behalf of the 15th CPC Central Committee is a good guidance for building a well-off society and boosting socialist modernization, Hu Jintao said in Beijing Friday.
The theme of the congress is to hold high Marxism-Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory and the important thought of Three Represents for an overall advancement of building socialism with Chinese characteristics, Hu Jintao said at a discussion attended by delegates from Tibet.
The congress conforms with the wishes of the Party and the people and represents requirements of the times and aspirations of the people, he added.
The congress will surely mobilize and unite all Party members and people of all ethnic groups in the country and push forward the cause of building China-style socialism, Hu said.
The important thought of Three Represents advanced by Jiang Zemin is a powerful ideological weapon for improving Party-building and developing socialism in China. It sums up the Party's historical experience, pools the Party's wisdom, adheres to Marxist principles and reflects the new situation in China and the world.
It is of far-reaching significance to make the important thought of Three Represents a long-term guiding theory of the Communist Party together with Marxism-Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought and Deng Xiaoping Theory, Hu Jintao said.
He noted that the third-generation leadership with Jiang Zemin at the core has braved various difficulties and risks, made historic breakthroughs in reform and opening-up, scored great achievements in the modernization drive and brought about a new situation in building socialism with Chinese characteristics.
Jiang Zemin's report makes the scientific judgment that the first 20 years of this century are a strategic opportunity for China. The objective of building a well-off society in an all-round way tallies with national conditions and people's aspirations, Hu said.
Some delegates in the Tibetan group also spoke in the discussion, commending the report delivered by Jiang Zemin. They noted that achievements Tibet has scored in the past 13 years are an outcome of the correct leadership of the Party and generous support from across the country.
