Xi Jinping, general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, presided over the meeting, delivering an important speech that underscored the value of diverse insights in guiding policy-making.
Connecting Policy with Perspectives
The symposium brought together experts and representatives from various sectors to:
- Reflect on this year’s economic achievements and challenges
