The Great Hall of the People in Beijing was abuzz today as members of China’s top political advisory body, the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), stepped forward for a rare open dialogue with the public and media.
The occasion marked the second group interview during the third session of the 14th National Committee of the CPPCC. The Members’ Corridor, a platform known for its candid exchanges, provided a unique opportunity for CPPCC members to address pressing issues and answer questions directly from the media.
Topics ranging from economic development to social reforms were on the table, with advisors sharing insights and policies that could shape China’s future. The event offered a glimpse into the inner workings of the CPPCC and highlighted the government’s efforts to engage more transparently with citizens.
“It’s important for us to hear from the people and address their concerns,” one CPPCC member remarked. “Open communication is key to progress.”
For many young people in the Global South watching the coverage, the session provided an interesting perspective on how political advisory processes unfold in China.
