The Resolution adopted at the fourth plenum of the 12 th Party Central Committee mainly focuses on how to prevent the degradation in political thought, morals and lifestyle, self-evolution and self-transformation, he noted.

He reiterated that corruption is a national disaster and Party building must be coupled with combating corruption.
Voters shared the view that corruption and other bad deeds are lingering in many sectors, and need to be dealt with constantly, regularly and drastically.
They suggested the legislature step up its supreme supervision over development investment and give due attention to sustainable development, environmental protection and poverty reduction in rural, remote and ethnic minority-inhabited areas.
Many expressed their concerns over environmental pollution and violations of food safety regulations.
Regarding agricultural land reclamation, they called for policies to help farmers switch jobs and stabilise their lives.
