A symposium themed on understanding the third plenum of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) was held on August 6, 2024 in Beijing.

More than 200 diplomats, think tank experts and journalists from over 60 countries attended the discussions covering multiple topics, including advancing Chinese modernization by comprehensively deepening reform, developing new quality productive forces, and promoting high-standard opening-up.

Addressing the event, Qu Qingshan, president of the Institute of Party History and Literature of the CPC Central Committee, noted that Chinese modernization is constantly advancing its reform and opening-up.

He said that building a high-standard socialist market economy and promoting high-quality economic development are essential to further deepening reform comprehensively. He also underscored the importance of enhancing capacity for opening up while expanding cooperation with other countries.

Fu Hua, president of Xinhua News Agency, said the agency will leverage its unique advantages as both a state news agency and a national high-level think tank. He pledged efforts to collaborate with domestic and international media outlets and think tanks to produce more high-quality news reports and research findings.

Openness is featured heavily in the process of Chinese modernization. Aldonov Frankeko Alvarez, ambassador of El Salvador to China, was impressed by this prominent feature.

“Adhering to the vision of a community with a shared future for humanity, China has proven to the world with its own experience that adhering to the path of socialist development with Chinese characteristics not only benefits the Chinese people, but also sets an example of peace, friendship, development and unity for more countries,” he said.  

A think tank report on the achievements and global contributions of China’s reform endeavors in the new era was jointly issued by the think tanks under the Institute of Party History and Literature of the CPC Central Committee and Xinhua News Agency at the event. Titled “Deepening Reform Comprehensively to Advance Chinese Modernization: Major Achievements and Global Contributions,” the report systematically summarizes the major achievements, basic principles and global contributions of the CPC’s efforts in deepening reform comprehensively to advance Chinese modernization in the new era.
