For the People’s Daily, this is a special year! It’s the 83rd anniversary of the founding of the Chinese Communist Party, the PRC’s 55th anniversary, the 70th anniversary of the Long March, and the 100 anniversary of Deng Xiaoping’s birth. The CCP’s birthday is on July 1, so the People’s Daily has started publishing a series of editorials, called ‘Classical China’, on new China’s progress and achievements.
Splendor always stays and becomes even newer
(An editorial to mark the 50th anniversary of the establishment of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence)
– Today’s brilliance starts from here
(an editorial on Shanghai’s progress)
– The production of summer grain crops in Henan increases and the income of peasants increases accordingly
