Ialso ask members of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political ConsultativeConference (CPPCC) for their comments. The covid-19 epidemic is the fastestspreading, most extensive, and most challenging public health emergency Chinahas encountered since the founding of the People’s Republic. Under the strongleadership of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China withComrade Xi Jinping at its core, and through the hard work and sacrifice of ourentire nation, we have made major strategic achievements in our response tocovid-19. At present, the epidemic has not yet come to an end, while the taskswe face in promoting development are immense. We must redouble our efforts tominimize the losses resulting from the virus and fulfill the targets and tasksfor economic and social development this year. Inpursuing development last year, China faced many difficulties and challenges.World economic growth was weak, international economic and trade frictionsintensified, and downward pressure on the domestic economy grew. The PartyCentral Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core rallied the Chinese peopleand led them in surmounting difficulties and accomplishing the year’s maintargets and tasks, thus laying the crucial foundation needed to reach the goalof building a moderately prosperous society in all respects.
