Since the founding of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) 70 years ago, China has maintained sound social security and stability while developing into the world’s second largest economy, receiving high appraisal from the international community.
There are many reasons for such long-term social security and stability of China, and the country’s efforts to guarantee and improve people’s livelihood are a major contributor.
The fourth plenary session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) requested the party to adhere to the vision of making development people-centered, and continuously guarantee and improve people's livelihoods and improve people's wellbeing so as to achieve common prosperity for everyone.
When people embrace common prosperity, live and work in content and security and share the achievements of reform and development, the practices threatening social security, such as violent crimes, would be largely reduced.
Since the founding of the PRC, especially the implementation of the reform and opening-up policy, the CPC, leading the Chinese people, has blazed a development path that suits China's actual conditions. It created and developed socialism with Chinese characteristics, transforming China from a country of basic survival to a world development miracle.
