On October 18, Guangming Daily published an exclusive interview with Gai Lin, the Secretary General of EU-China Friendship Association and distinguished researcher of the Institute of China’s Border Studies at Zhejiang Normal University. The interview was titled “Walking on a New Road of Modernization: Belgium Overseas Chinese Praise the 20th CPC National Congress.” Gai Lin said that the 20th CPC National Congress is a crucial conference held at a critical moment when China embarked on a new journey of building a comprehensively socialist and modern country.

Here follows excerpts of the article:

Walking on a New Road of Modernization: Belgium Overseas Chinese Praise the 20th CPC National Congress

Gai Lin believes that the 20th CPC National Congress has opened an important stage of realization for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The report made by the General Secretary Xi Jinping not only reviewed and summarized the 10 years since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, but he also put forward major future policies and strategic deployment for all fields. Gai believes that the report required the CPC not only to maintain strategic focus, but also to rise to the challenge and forge a new path of peaceful and developmental modernization for China and the world. The report outlines the course of action to lead China in the future.

Gai Lin explained that China's program for poverty alleviation has made remarkable achievements. One important reason is that the CPC has always wanted to work together with the people, share weal and woe, and constantly meet the people's needs for a better life.

Over the past 40 years, the number of poor people in China has decreased by about 800 million, accounting for nearly 75% of the global poverty reduction over the same period. China’s economic growth has been strong during the past 10 years, and its trade in goods has ranked first in the world for many consecutive years, making great contributions to global economic growth. In the past five years, China’s GDP has exceeded 110 trillion RMB, and a moderately prosperous society has been built in all respects. This is a decisive victory achieved in the harrowing fight against poverty, and the first century goal has been successfully achieved. These achievements are solid proof of the CPC’s outstanding governing ability.  

Gai Lin concluded by saying that Chinese overseas should firmly support the leadership of the CPC. They should care about the growth and development of the motherland and strive to write a moving chapter of patriotic love for their country as they realize their dreams overseas. The community of overseas Chinese in Europe will continue to strengthen the confidence in building an overseas bridge, continue to play a role in promoting friendly exchanges between China-EU, and contribute to the affirmation of a comprehensive socialist and modern country. This puts its people in the position to realize the Chinese Dream of the great rejuvenation of the nation and promotes the building of a community with a shared future for mankind.
