CPC leads country to prominent global role

Selecting talent

The CPC values the selection of talent and has established an effective system of cadre cultivation, selection, arrangement and management. The talent selection practice of the CPC has received recognition from other parties around the world.

Performance assessment of CPC cadres includes multiple aspects such as economic development, employment, social insurance and environmental protection.

China's personnel system, further reformed after the 18th National Congress of the CPC, consists of strict and standardized procedures of selection, appointment and assessment.

The Party's training system for cadres is the largest in scale in the world. Ranging from group study sessions of the CPC Central Committee Political Bureau to Party schools at all levels and training programs held by the CPC and universities at home and abroad, the massive training projects help the Party enhance its capability of governance to tackle new challenges.

Self reforming

"Going in for a big exam in the capital city," an expression used by late Chinese leader Mao Zedong, has been quoted by many leaders of the CPC. It not only refers to guiding the reform and development of the country but also means self-actualization and improvement.

It is rare to find a political party that can consistently conduct self-examination, eliminate internal problems in a timely fashion and strictly punish corrupt members.

The CPC shows a strong sense of self-regulation. "We can be defeated by no one but ourselves."

The spirit and capability of self-reform are the most distinctive aspects of the CPC, and they enable the Party to deal with deep-rooted interests and break through the hindrances of vested interests.

"The reason why our Party has the courage of self-reform is that our Party has no special interests of its own except the interests of the State, the nation and the people," Xi said.

In June 2019, the CPC launched a campaign themed: "Staying true to our founding mission" which showed the Party's determination to remove whatever undermines the Party's purity and advanced nature.
