BEIJING, Nov. 3 (Xinhua) -- Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, has elaborated on principles in drafting proposals for formulating the 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-2025) for National Economic and Social Development and the Long-Range Objectives Through the Year 2035.
In an explanatory speech on the proposals that was made public Tuesday, Xi said a balance should be struck between building on past achievements and seeking innovations to ensure the smooth connection of the two centenary goals.
The government-market relationship should be dealt with well to give better play to China's institutional advantages, Xi said.
A balance between opening-up and self-reliance should be maintained for China to better adapt to both domestic and international situations, he said.
Xi urged properly handling the relationship between development and security to effectively prevent and deal with systemic risks that may hinder China's march toward modernization.
The relationship between strategy and tactics should also be well managed for drafting a set of farsighted and pragmatic proposals, he said. ■
