DEVELOPMENT AND STABILITY
Hu Jintao noted "development is critically important, and upholding stability is also a critically important task. Without stability, nothing could be done, and even the achievements already made could be lost."
President Hu's remarks on the relationship between stability, development and reform offered a guiding direction for solving current economic and social difficulties in China, said He Yiming, head of the population and labor employment institute of the Guangdong University of Finance.
Some experts said the CPC will pay great attention to the unity of reform, development and stability in the future as it understands the long-term nature, arduousness and complexity of challenges and difficulties.
"Problems must be solved under the condition of the country's stability. Without stability, no problem can be solved and no one will benefit from it," said Fan Hesheng, a professor of sociology from the Anhui university.
President Hu noted that China is going through social changes unparalleled in scope.
"While releasing tremendous dynamism for China's development and progress, these changes have inevitably given rise to conflicts and problems," Hu said.
To cope with the problems, the president pointed out that the Party should reduce and defuse these conflicts by building the material basis, enhancing moral strength, improving policies and measures, and providing a stronger institutional guarantee.
He said that the Party should also strengthen social administration in an innovative way.
