China party system sets an example

'Innovation' in politics avoids ills of competitive structures, officials say

Leaders of non-Communist parties said on Tuesday that China's system of multiparty cooperation and political consultation creates a new party system and provides "China's solution" and "China's wisdom" for the development of world party politics.

"It's an innovation in political party systems that is different from one-party rule or the competitive system of multiple political parties in the West," Ding Zhongli, chairman of the Central Committee of the China Democratic League, said at a news conference on the sidelines of the ongoing annual two sessions.
