Communist Party of China (CPC) committees across the country must improve their method of selecting officials, as it is important to raise the quality of officials, said Chinese Vice-President Hu Jintao Monday at a nationwide televised meeting.
Hu, also a Standing Committee member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, said Party committees at all levels must fully carry out the principles of a new statute on appointing officials.
According to the statute, a person must have both working competence and moral integrity to serve as a Party or administrative official.
The selection of officials must be democratic, fair and strictly follow the regulations of statute in order to build sound official selection and appointment systems at all levels, Hu said.
He noted that the statute will help further the reform of the country's personnel system and create a favorable environment for talented officials.
Wei Jianxing, a Standing Committee member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, was present at the meeting which was presided over by Zeng Qinghong, an alternate member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and head of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee.
