"The 16th CPC Central Committee headed by Hu Jintao has led the nation to break new ground in the cause of building socialism with Chinese characteristics and in adapting Marxism with Chinese conditions," Wu said.

He said building Chinese socialism is the fundamental reason for China's achievements in the past 29 years of reform and opening-up and will lead to more victories in the country's building of a moderately prosperous society.

In his report, Hu cited the miraculous growth of China's economy from "once on the verge of collapse" to the fourth largest in the world. "The Chinese people, once inadequately fed and clad,are leading a fairly comfortable life on the whole."

The Scientific Outlook on Development, Wu said, is a continuation and development of the collective wisdom of the previous three generations of CPC leadership. "It is an important guiding principle we must stick to in China's social and economic development," he said.
