The delegates to the upcoming national congress are entrusted with the hope of each CPC member and the request of each CPC organization within the Party and, therefore, as a delegate to the national congress, he or she enjoys the utmost confidence of all members in the Party.



Delegates to the upcoming national congress are the outstanding elements of the Party, who have not only conducted superb work performance but have a fairly good capability of discussing administrative, official matters and a fairly high ideological and political competence. In the meantime, as delegates to the CPC National Congress, they represents the image of the Party and should set still higher, rigid demands upon themselves and be more strict with themselves. Every CPC delegate should 'standardize" or pay attention to their own words and deeds in conformity with requirements for the advanced character of the Party, gives full expression to his exemplary role and imbue himself with Marxism-Leninism-Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory and the important thought of the "Three Represents"; he should conscientiously implement the scientific concept of development, take the lead in carrying out the Party's line, principles and policies, should stress politics, bear the overall interest in mind, observe disciplines and keep in unison with the CPC Central Committee with Hu Jintao as the general secretary; he should initiate in putting into practice the outlook on honor and disgrace, consciously remolding his ideological, work and life styles, and working diligently, so as to score more prominent achievements in both production and work.



The delegates to the Party's 17th National Congress have come from all work fronts and realms. They include not only leading cadres at various levels, but also Party members at the grassroot level in production and work, who have a wide representation from such spheres as economy, science and technology, national defense, politics and laws, education, media publicity, culture, health work, physical culture and sports, and take on the request of the entire Party and people of the whole nation. By keeping to the Party's mass viewpoint and mass line, they should forge still closer ties with Party members and the masses of people, and go among CPC members and ordinary people in grass-root units to conduct investigations and studies and bring their ideas and demands to the congress.



The CPC National Congress represents the supreme leading organ of the Party and the highest form of inner Party democracy. The delegates to the congress will hear and deliberate the reports of the CPC Central Committee and the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, discuss and decide on major issues of the CPC and elect the new central leading organization. Hence, they are entrusted with a heavy, great responsibility and a glorious mission.
