Fighting corruption vital task

After making a comprehensive analysis of the tasks and challenges the Communist Party of China (CPC) faces in his speech at the CPC's anniversary gathering, General Secretary of CPC Central Committee Hu Jintao stressed that to make Party building more scientific under the new historical conditions, the CPC must follow the principle of fighting corruption in a comprehensive way, addressing both its symptoms and root causes, says an article on xinhuanet.com. Excerpts:

The CPC owes all its achievements and governance over the last 90 years to its efforts to maintain its advanced nature. But its advanced nature and governance have not been accomplished once and for all. Therefore, the CPC should constantly enhance Party building to make it more scientific.
