Wang said the session, which started on March 4, spoke volumes about the characteristics and advantages of China's whole-process people's democracy and its vigor and vitality.

On the new journey, members of the 14th CPPCC National Committee should thoroughly study and implement the guiding principles of the 20th CPC National Congress and unwaveringly uphold the overall Party leadership, Wang said.
