The report of the 19th National Congress will basically realize the goal of socialist modernization 15 years ahead of schedule.

  CCTV News:The new era and new goals also have a significant change in the time node. Earlier, the Thirteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed that "by the middle of the next century, the per capita gross national product will reach the level of moderately developed countries, and the people’s lives will be relatively affluent and basically modernized." Now, the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China has adjusted the time for "basically realizing modernization" from the middle of the 21st century to 2035, which is 15 years ahead of schedule. Then, why can the basic realization of socialist modernization be fifteen years ahead of schedule? What is the consideration? Let’s listen to the analysis of Han Jun, member of the drafting group of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and deputy director of the Central Financial and Economic Leading Group Office.

  Han Jun, a member of the drafting group of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, said that during the drafting of the report, a large number of data were calculated and many think tanks were entrusted to do corresponding research. It should be said that in the past, we basically realized modernization until the middle of this century. So now it’s actually ahead of schedule, because since the reform and opening up, China’s development has far exceeded the expectations of the whole world. I’m afraid we didn’t expect that the country could develop so fast. Our economic growth in China now, for example, since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, is among the best in the world. Our total economic output has increased from 54 trillion to 80 trillion, ranking second in the world, with a great improvement in social productivity and a great accumulation of social wealth.
