SOME DELEGATES AT the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China have been invited to meet the media when they make their way to and from the meeting halls at the Great Hall of the People. This is the first time the Party Congress has had this arrangement. People.com.cn comments:

Jing Haipeng, the astronaut who has been on three Chinese space missions, became the first delegate to meet the media on Wednesday morning. He said that it is a "sacred mission" with "great responsibility" to be elected as a delegate to the 19th CPC National Congress.

After him, delegates from various walks of life spoke to the media.

The "corridor" for delegates provides reporters with the chance to throw questions at them.

Also, the passageway gives some delegates the opportunity to offer their personal points of views on specific questions in an extemporaneous manner. The live broadcasts of the interaction between the media and the delegates on TV and the internet immediately reduce the distance between the public and the meeting.

A total of 1,818 overseas journalists have registered to cover the 19th CPC National Congress, a record high, showing the great attention the world pays to this important political event.

Openness and transparency are effective public relations strategies that the Party should carry on into the future, so as to foster constructive communication with the public and satisfy the people's needs for information.

Such openness and transparency show the Party's confidence in its path and abilities.
