The Communist Party of China has vowed to satisfy the people's desire for "a better life" and written the idea into a key political document.
The Chinese phrase "mei hao sheng huo", which can be translated as "a better life" or "a happy life", appeared 14 times, including in both the opening section and the last paragraph, in a report given by Xi Jinping on Wednesday，October 18, 2017 at the opening of the 19th CPC National Congress.
The report at the five-yearly congress is considered the most important political speech in China. The needs to be met for the people to live a better life are increasingly broad, according to Xi. Not only have their material and cultural needs grown, their demands for democracy(民主), rule of law, fairness and justice, security, and a better environment are also increasing, he said.
It is not the first time that Xi has used the phrase "mei hao sheng huo". "To meet the people's desire for a happy life is our mission," Xi said when meeting the press after being elected general secretary of the CPC Central Committee in late 2012. More than 60 million people have been lifted out of poverty since 2012. During the same period, an average of over 13 million urban jobs were created each year.
The CPC has announced it aims to see that socialist modernization is basically realized by 2035, and to develop China into a great modern socialist country that is prosperous, strong, democratic, culturally advanced, harmonious, and beautiful by mid-21st century.
