SPOKESPERSONS from 11 departments of the Communist Party of China made a group debut yesterday in front of media from both home and abroad.
The event was staged one day ahead of the 89th anniversary of the founding of the CPC, which now has nearly 80 million members.
"The CPC has paid high attention to information disclosure of Party affairs," Wang Chen, director of the Party's International Communication Office, said at the press conference.
The 11 spokespersons, nine male and two female, represent the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, and the Party's Organization Department, Publicity Department, United Front Work Department, International Department, Taiwan Work Office, International Communication Office, Party School, Party Literature Research Center, Party History Research Office and Central Archives Department.
Wang said making Party affairs public has been a major focus in recent years.
The Party first proposed to set up the spokesperson system in a decision endorsed by a plenary session of the Party Central Committee held in September, he said.
"The spokesperson system is key to making Party affairs public, promoting intra-party democracy, improving the party's governance capability, and to cultivating a favorable environment for the development of the CPC and China," Wang said.
He said the International Communication Office was currently working with CPC departments to make improvements in the spokesperson system, in order to disclose party affairs in a timely manner, and further enhance transparency of party affairs.
In the 70-minute press conference broadcast live on China Central Television, the 11 spokespersons in turn vowed to facilitate news reporting and boost transparency.
Assuring that the International Communication Office will continue to host such press conferences in the future, the office's spokesman Guo Weimin noted that a number of provincial-level and municipal party committees and their subordinate departments had also named their own spokespersons.
"The International Communication Office will work with them next, in order to release relevant information in an improved manner," he said.
In related news, Luo Zongyi, spokesman of the Party School of the CPC Central Committee, said the Party School invited a group of reporters from both home and abroad to visit the school yesterday afternoon.
