"We should enhance our awareness of the opportunities and hardships, grasp the law of development scientifically, adapt ourselves to changes of environment actively and resolve all problems efficiently" to further push forward the country's modernization drive, says a CPC Central Committee document released Wednesday.

The document, the CPC Central Committee's Proposal for Formulating the 12th Five-Year Program for China's Economic and Social Development (2011-15), was adopted at the Fifth Plenum of the 17th CPC Central Committee.

To formulate the program, it is necessary to "deeply understand and correctly follow and grasp" the new changes and new characteristics of the situation within and outside the country, says the document.
