Stronger Party, Stronger Country
People’s Tribune

Since its founding in 1921, the Communist Party of China has been striving for the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the well-being of the Chinese people. Over the past decades, it has been committed to this mission and served the people wholeheartedly.
Though facing different problems and adversities during different periods of revolution and development, the CPC has adhered to its commitment of exercising power in the interests of the people. Since its 18th National Congress, the CPC Central Committee with Xi Jinping at its core has worked to ensure that the gains of reform and development benefit all Chinese people in a fair way, which is consistent with the Party’s fundamental stand and embodies its people-centered philosophy of development.
This people-centered philosophy distinguishes the Marxist political party from other political entities. Improving the well-being of the people and promoting wellrounded human development are the motivation and goal behind all work carried out by the CPC. Everything it does, it does for the protection and realization of the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people. This nature is highlighted in China’s combat against the COVID-19 epidemic.
The philosophy is also reflected in China’s proposal to build a global community of a shared future, which serves not only the development interests of the Chinese people but also people all over the world.
Smart Community, People’s Community

In the fight against the COVID-19 epidemic, residential communities constitute the first line of defense. And advanced technologies including artificial intelligence, big data, and the Internet of Things, have enabled wide application of many smart community services.
The moment a vehicle or a person comes to the entrance of a walled neighborhood, license and facial recognition cameras and infrared temperature sensors are activated to control the gate and detect risks. In the elevators of some buildings UV germicidal lamps are turned on automatically 30 seconds after absence of passengers, switching off in the presence of passengers. Some elevators allow for no-touch operation through voice message, app, and other mobile technologies through the smartphone.
Housing developers and property management companies are working on interconnectivity of hardware in order to allow for interaction between different high technologies, hence building smart homes and smart communities. The Forbidden City: 600 Years of History
Insight China
Issue 25, 2020
The year 2020 marks the 600th anniversary of the completion of the Forbidden City, which is seen as the essence of traditional Chinese cultural brilliance.
The imposing buildings in the palace are full of intricacy, sophistication, and artistry, embodying the concept of harmony between humans and nature. In the case of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the architecture manifests the legitimacy of the monarchy founded “by the grace of heavens,” as ancient rulers claimed.
Ancient craftsmen were great artists who not only created tangible works but also conveyed moral and philosophical ideas through their works. They carried on the Chinese civilization.
In its introduction of the imperial palace, UNESCO World Heritage Committee says, “Seat of supreme power for over five centuries (1416-1911), the Forbidden City in Beijing, with its landscaped gardens and many buildings (whose nearly 10,000 rooms contain furniture and works of art), constitutes a priceless testimony to Chinese civilization during the Ming and Qing dynasties.”
The Forbidden City stands for Chinese values, which is what makes it outstanding. All the romance and schemes of the imperial court, all the legendary rulers and sagacious officials have receded into the past, but the old palace has survived, remaining as splendid as always.
After the Palace Museum was founded on its site in 1925, the Forbidden City was transformed from the residence of the emperor to a place of art and history for the people.
After the Spike in Online Education
Minsheng Weekly
Issue 17, 2020
After a spike in the demand for online teaching during the epidemic, the market is now cooling down. Online education is no longer an emergency alternative but the new normal. More Chinese are open to this mode of education, and have higher expectations for its providers.
Online teaching has the advantage of easier transmission of knowledge and also the disadvantage of no in-person contact with students, which is critical for responding to the needs of specific classes and individuals.
Despite its fast growth this year, online teaching has shown its limits in comparison with in-person teaching. For example, it is difficult for teachers to interact with and observe the response of students during the class. Technologies do allow virtual exchanges, but one also feels less motivated to do so when sitting in front of a camera and screen. The curriculum of online classes is rich in content, but often the students, at home alone, lack the initiative to delve into it after class.
To tackle these problems, educational authorities should formulate online teaching standards, schools should step up supervision, and extracurricular service providers should also comply with the inherent law of education so that children can get quality and effective education.
