One hundred years of vision and success By Peter Koenig | China Daily | Updated: 2021-08-04 07:57 JIN DING/CHINA DAILY
China s success story goes hand-in-hand with the evolution of the Communist Party of China. The founding of the Party on July 1, 1921, signaled the start of ending some 200 years of oppression by foreign powers, Western invasions, occupation and exploitation, and looting of China s rich natural resources.
One of the CPC s key objectives was to ensure China would never again be exploited or dominated by Western powers.
The CPC became a force to be reckoned with, as it grew stronger by deepening the solidarity forged among communities and regions across China, with all pursuing the same goal of independence from colonization and exploitation, and the creation of a sovereign communist China, with a sovereign socialist economy.
