We firmly oppose illegal and even violent actions taken by a small number of people to mess things up in Hong Kong and sabotage cooperation and exchanges between the mainland and Hong Kong.

Hong Kong's long-term stability and prosperity is an overarching mission of the "one country, two systems" principle, and an important part of the Chinese Dream.

The central government will continue to fight corruption and keep a high-handed posture against corruption so as to bring people more sense of gain.

In the face of sluggish global economic recovery, nations should cooperate to work toward common interests. Exports of Chinese equipment and production capacity will not only help China tackle downward pressure but also serve as a boon for importers to prop up growth and increase employment. After decades of rapid economic advancement, China has developed huge capacity in producing iron and steel, which are urgently needed in many less-developed economies.

It remains an arduous task to make China, especially a developing and changing China, understood by the world. China is like a thick book and each individual is a page of it. I am of the view that each and every Chinese citizen should be more responsible for more active about and capable of telling stories about China.

A sound environment should be created to protect entrepreneurs' property rights and returns on innovation.
