CPC leadership deploys guidance teams to oversee Party-wide education campaign

BEIJING, March 30 (Xinhua) -- The Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee has decided to dispatch eight guidance teams to oversee a Party-wide study and education campaign for the establishment and application of a correct understanding of what it means to perform well, an official statement said on Monday.

The teams will guide and supervise relevant work in eight provincial-level regions and 12 institutions, including government departments, financial institutions, state-owned enterprises and universities, the statement added.

A training meeting for the guidance teams was held in Beijing on Monday. According to the meeting, the move is a key step to ensure the campaign delivers solid results by strengthening oversight and promoting effective problem-solving.

It stressed that the guidance teams should carry out precise and effective supervision, thoroughly identify problems, ensure resolute rectification, and address pressing public concerns.

The teams were also instructed to help identify institutional weaknesses, improve regulatory frameworks, and ensure strict implementation of rules, according to the meeting.

The CPC Central Committee initiated the campaign in late February, prodding Party members, particularly officials at the county and director level and above, to fix their mindset regarding governance performance.

The campaign, which will run until July, aims to correct misguided views on governance that often breed vanity projects, hidden risks, heavy burdens on local communities, and public discontent. ■
