Full coverage: The Sixth Plenum of the 18th CPC Central Committee

BEIJING, Oct. 29 (Xinhua) -- As China has entered a crucial stage in the building of a "moderately prosperous society in all respects", a strong core leadership is needed to ensure the development and prosperity of the nation.

A key meeting of the Communist Party of China (CPC) this week has called on all its members to "closely unite around the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core."

It is believed that such a call is of great importance to maintaining the unity of the Party and upholding the authority of the CPC Central Committee and its central, unified leadership.

Also, it will enhance the cohesiveness of the Chinese nation and encourage the Chinese people to overcome difficulties and challenges and move forward.

China's reform campaign has entered a "deep-water zone". The CPC, as the ruling party of China, faces unprecedented tasks regarding reform, development and stability, as well as unprecedented risks and challenges.

In this situation, it is even more urgent to make sure that all Party members act in conformity and the entire country maintains solidarity.

To uphold the authority of the CPC Central Committee and ensure all Party members firmly follow what the CPC Central Committee advocates and firmly implement what the CPC Central Committee decides will matter to the destiny of both the Party and the state.

Such efforts are also where the fundamental interests of the people of all ethnic groups in China lie.

The CPC members should become more aware of the need to uphold political integrity, keep in mind the bigger picture, follow the CPC as the core of the Chinese leadership and act consistently with CPC Central Committee policy.

It is also pivotal for them to keep their thoughts, politics and acts in line with the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi as the core, so that the Party will always remain in unity and powerful.

A powerful and consolidated CPC with a strong core leadership is capable of leading the entire nation forward in the "new long march."
