At a grand gathering in Lhasa marking the 60th anniversary of the Xizang Autonomous Region, Wang Huning, chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, outlined a bold roadmap for a modern, harmonious Xizang.
CPC Leadership as the Foundation
Wang stressed that the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party remains the fundamental guarantee for Xizang's development. Local Party organizations will reinforce political cohesion, align with the CPC Central Committee, and advance governance through reform and strict discipline.
Security and Stability First
Ensuring national security and long-term stability is a top priority. Xizang will uphold the rule of law, enhance social governance, and resolutely combat separatism. Wang affirmed that Xizang has been an inseparable part of the Chinese mainland since ancient times, and any external interference will not succeed.
Unity and Cultural Exchange
Ethnic unity is seen as the cornerstone of progress. Efforts will foster a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation and promote exchanges among ethnic groups. The region's traditional spirit will inspire collective efforts to protect the homeland and build a harmonious society.
Green and High-Quality Development
The roadmap emphasizes infrastructure upgrades, boosting distinctive industries, and integrating Xizang into the national development pattern. Green development is a priority, with measures to protect the plateau's ecosystem and ensure blue skies, clean water, and lush landscapes.
Focusing on Well-Being and Prosperity
People's well-being remains the ultimate goal. Past achievements in poverty alleviation will be consolidated, rural revitalization advanced, and urban-rural coordination strengthened. With strong central support and nationwide assistance, Xizang is poised to move toward common prosperity.
As Xizang steps into this new phase, the vision for a modern and harmonious region blends tradition, sustainability, and inclusive growth, opening fresh opportunities for global citizens, entrepreneurs, and eco-travelers alike.
