CPC-led victory over poverty hailed


'Unprecedented leap'
Tursunali Kuziev, a professor at Uzbek University of Journalism and Mass Communications, said the CPC has fulfilled its solemn promises to the Chinese people by building a moderately prosperous society in all respects, casting off absolute poverty in a historic development.
This is an unprecedented great leap in Chinese history, injecting confidence and momentum of development into a world shrouded in the COVID-19 pandemic, said Kuziev, who firmly believes that under the CPC's leadership, China's second centenary goal will definitely be fulfilled.
Zhu Yuke, an official in the Federation of Overseas Chinese and Chinese Youth in Russia, said the world had witnessed the great growth of China from poverty to prosperity under the leadership of the CPC.
Zhu noted that the CPC led the Chinese people to overcome challenges and difficulties last year, from the flooding disaster to the novel coronavirus pandemic.
"Facing the challenges, China led the world in curbing the spread of the epidemic, becoming the first major economy in the world to achieve positive economic growth, and achieved the successful conclusion of its 13th Five-Year Plan (2016-20)," Zhu said.
"All the fruitful achievement would not have been achieved without the leadership of the CPC as well as the sacrifice of over 95 million CPC members."
Deng Changwu, vice-president of the Kenya Overseas Chinese Association, said the CPC has led the Chinese people in turning an impoverished country into a strong and prosperous nation over a century's arduous efforts. This is a great, hard-won achievement, Deng said.
"Although China faces various challenges in its development, including some anti-China forces from Western nations, we are firmly confident that the 100-year-old CPC will renew its past glory and lead the Chinese people to overcome all difficulties and challenges and realize the dream of national revival," Deng said.
