BEIJING -- Wang Yang, chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) National Committee, underlined the importance of studying and implementing the spirit of the speech by Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, at the ceremony marking the Party's centenary on July 1.

It is a major political task for the CPPCC to study and implement the spirit of the speech, said Wang, also a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee.

Wang made the remarks Tuesday at a seminar in Beijing where CPPCC members exchanged their understanding of Xi's speech. About 2,000 CPPCC members attended the event in person or via video link, and 11 delivered speeches to share their views.

Wang called on CPPCC members to have a more profound grasp of the speech, uphold whole-process democracy, enhance the CPPCC's role as a specialized consultative body, and make new contributions to strengthening the unity of the whole Chinese nation.

At the seminar, the participants agreed that all CPPCC members should carry forward the great founding spirit of the CPC and follow the requirements set out in the speech in fulfilling their duties.
