The year 2009 for the Chinese people is of historic significance. The founding of the
People's Republic of China six decades ago represent a new historic period in the
development of the Chinese nation. During the past 60 years, China has experienced
historic changes. The relationship between China and the rest of the world also
experienced historic changes. In the upcoming new year, we will unswervingly uphold the
great banner of socialism with Chinese characteristics, deepen the implementation of the
Scientific Outlook on Development under the guidance of Deng Xiaoping Theory and the
important thought of Three Represents, maintain a balanced and relatively fast economic
growth based on the expansion of domestic consumption, accelerate the change of
development mode and structural adjustment, increase the ability of sustainable
development, deepen the reform and opening up to inject vigor and vitality into social and
economic development, enhance social program construction, accelerate the speed of
resolving hard issues confronting citizens, maintain sound and fast social and economic
development.

It is also the unavoidable road to safeguard world stability and promote the common
