CPC’s persistence in pushing forward rigorous self-reform

Since its founding in 1921, the Communist Party of China (CPC) has not only established the New China, but profoundly transformed the country. It successfully found two key answers to the question of how to escape the historical cycle of government’ rise and fall. The first is letting the people supervise the government, and the second is carrying out the Party's self-reform.

Why self-reform is must

First, this is determined by the founding mission and nature of the CPC, which is to pursue happiness for the Chinese people and realize rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Since the Party has no special interests of its own, the state founded under its leadership is called the People’s Republic of China, its government the people's government, and its officials people’s servants. Being the Chinese people's party, CPC shares the same goals and stakes as the Chinese people. Meanwhile, the CPC is the vanguard of the Chinese people. Its mandate comes from the people and must be exercised in their interests. Its members being role models among the people inspires and drives the Party to keep high demand on itself and advance steadily. Therefore, to fulfill its mission, the Party has adopted a full range of intra-Party regulations, and exercised strict internal management.
