Xi underlined the need for all Party members and leading officials to always maintain a high degree of consistency with the CPC Central Committee ideologically and politically, and in action.
Efforts should be made to educate and guide all Party members and officials to enhance their sense of responsibility and mission, and increase their capabilities to promote high-quality development, serve the people and forestall and defuse risks, he said.
