Don't mock deputies' proposals

In my 10-year career as a reporter, no news event has started in such a timely manner as the annual two sessions: the plenary meeting of the top political consultative body always opens at 3 pm on March 3, and the full session of the top legislature starts at 9 am sharp on March 5.

The agenda may become routine for a veteran reporter, but every year there are amusing moments when you hear or read some funny suggestions or proposals at the sessions.

For example, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference suggested last year that the country should not encourage rural students to go to college as once they enter the city to receive college education, they would never come back to their village hometowns.
