This year's Two Sessions continued to focus on promoting high-quality development. A series of important issues discussed during the Two Sessions, including the development of new quality productive forces, artificial intelligence and humanoid robots, have already become major topics of public interest. These sectors are considered to be among the main driving forces in China's continued economic transformation, as it works toward its mid-century goals for development and modernization.
This year's Two Sessions are the first to be held since the Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China was held last year. For this reason, implementing the Third Plenary Session's core directive to further deepen reform and opening up comprehensively is also among key tasks on this year's agenda. The Two Sessions discussed reforms in key areas, such as accelerating the building of a unified national market, boosting the development of private economy and deepening the reform of the fiscal and tax systems. These reform measures will add new vitality to economic and social development and facilitate sustainable and sound economic growth.
The Two Sessions also perform major functions in China's whole-process people's democracy, being key platforms for delivering ideas and suggestions from communities to government organizations, and for monitoring government progress on implementing these proposals. By following the progress and outcomes of these meetings, international observers can gain a deeper understanding of China's governance, its goals and its place in the global community.
