In line with the aim and aspirations of China’s leaders three great things were announced on the eve of 90th anniversary of the ruling Communist Party:
1) China opened the World’s longest cross sea bridge spanning 42 K.Ms built over 4 years at a cost of 1.5 billion Euro Dollars. Jiaozhou Bay bridge links eastern port city of Qingdao to Huangdao island.
2) World’s longest natural gas pipeline was also operationalised from the China-Kazakhstan border to Turkmenistan. The 8700 KM long pipeline is designed to provide stable gas supply for atleast 30 years, powering the booming industrial zones in Shanghai, Gunagzhou and Hongkong.
3) A high-speed bullet train from Beijing to Shanghai which will take under five hours was flagged off on Thursday, zipping at 300kph (capable of 350 kph). China has the world’s longest high-speed rail network.
China thinks big and does bigger things - Hats off to Communist Leaders. Despite massive population and comparatively poverty ridden society, the Government is bent on doing and improving things. They find pleasure in setting world records and achieving these heights – take any sector for that matter – be it Sports and Games, Production of Steel, Cement, Road and Rail Infrastructure, Navy & Army, Industrial growth and productivity.
He might be the founding father of the People’s Republic of China, but the economic policies Mao Ze Dong followed have few takers today in the Communist Party of China(CPC) which believes “he did it all wrong”. In fact as it celebrates its 90th anniversary, the party says Mao’s ways resulted in “chaos in entire society” and it was a policy crafted out of the lessons learnt from his failures that have put China on a path to economic glory.
The CPC now attributes its success in stirring economic development in China in the past three and half decades to economic reforms propounded by Mao’s successor Deng Xiaoping, and its ability to learn from past failures. “Mao did it all wrong because he tried to develop the economy in a revolutionary way,” Xie Chuntao(Xie), Vice Director of the Party History Department, said, Xie said “Mao told his collegues in Yan’an (his home province) that the Party must let the masses to supervise the Government. He then began his way of implementing democracy, which resulted in chaos in the entire society” Bold admission and announcement indeed!!
The CPC, which had its ups and downs in its 62 year uninterrupted rule of China, will turn 90 on Thursday and is currently carrying out a massive campaign to revitalize itself by recreating its past spirit. Xie said the liberalized atmosphere brought in by Deng has made CPC take decisions with objective reality.
