This month, President Xi Jinping has two priorities on his schedule, one at home and one overseas.
First at home, he will join China's other top decision-makers in a plenary session of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, which is expected to roll out a draft of the development program for 2016 to 2020. This, it is believed, will mainly aim to give a final push so China's per capita income doubles from its 2010 level by 2020.
And abroad, after his September state visit to the United States, Xi is to pay a state visit to the United Kingdom, during which he is likely to further explain to the world how China intends to play its due role as a responsible global stakeholder.
