Xi's book offers insight into governance

I am very pleased to come to Pakistan for the launch ceremony of the Urdu version of Xi Jinping: The Governance of China with Pakistani friends. On behalf of the Department of Publicity of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the State Council Information Office of the People's Republic of China, I warmly welcome the friends who have come here to attend the launch event and express my heartfelt thanks to the friends from various circles who have made contributions to the publication of this book!

Xi Jinping: The Governance of China, a collection of President Xi Jinping's 79 speeches and articles from November 2012 to June 2014, is a basic guideline that reflects his thoughts on the governance of China. Since being first published, more than 6.2 million copies of the book in 16 languages have been circulated across the world. Today, the Urdu version of this book before all of us carries the scent of ink. It will help build a new platform for mutual communication, mutual reference and mutual learning between China and Pakistan on governance of the nation, and serve as a new witness to the enhanced friendship of the two neighbors.

In the more than four years since the 18th National Congress of the CPC in late 2012, China has continuously created new "lists of achievements" in various causes.
