Party building work is vital to the Communist Party's development.

The deputy head of the CPC Central Committee organization department, Ouyang Song, says the CPC has achieved great progress in party building, especially over the last five years. And he says this work will be deepened in the future.

Ouyang Song says the Communist Party of China has paid great attention to its self-building work with the changes and developments of domestic and international situations. Since the 16th CPC party congress 5 years ago, the party organization work has improved significantly.

Ouyang Song, Deputy Head of Dep't of Organization, CPC, said, "Democracy within the Party has been extended. The internal rules of procedure and the decision making process of Party Committees have been improved. The decisions have been more scientific and democratic. We also paid greater attention to bringing into play the role of the party's plenary session. We set up a mechanism whereby the political bureau of the CPC Central Committee reports its work and is under the oversight of the CPC Central Committee; and the mechamism is also applied to the local Party Committee. And, we have also introduced a voting system for local Party Committees in their decision-making about major issues and major appointments."

The Party is also promoting its work in other areas, such as upgrading theory and reducing the number of local leaders. And, as one of the top priorities, the anti-corruption campaign within the party has made great progress.
