THE number of Communist Party of China members has surpassed 85 million, according to the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee.
The CPC had 85.13 million members at the end of 2012, according to a department statement yesterday, one day before the 92nd anniversary of its founding.
Last year, 3.23 million people joined the CPC, the world's largest political party. The Party had a net increase of 2.53 million taking into account members who died or left.
More than 44 percent of new members are frontline workers such as industrial employees, farmers, herders and migrant staff.
The Party had only about 50 members when it was founded and 4.5 million when the People's Republic of China was founded in 1949.
Of the total Party members, 20.27 million, or 23.8 percent, are women and 5.80 million, or 6.8 percent, are from ethnic minority groups, according to the statement.
Farmers, herders and fisher folk account for 25.35 million members while 7.25 million Party members are industrial workers, according to the statement.
Another 7.16 million members work in Party and state agencies, and 20.20 million are managerial staff and professional technicians working in enterprises and nonprofit organizations.
Students make up 2.91 million members, the statement said.
More than a quarter of members are less than 35 years old and about 34.09 million have obtained degrees from higher education institutions, according to the statement.
The Party's grass-roots organizations also increased last year.
The CPC had 4.20 million grass-roots Party organs across the country at the end of 2012, up 4.3 percent from a year earlier.
These grass-roots organs were set up in 7,245 urban subdistricts, 33,000 towns, 87,000 urban communities and 588,000 villages.
Party organs were established in nearly all government organs, state-owned and private enterprises, and social organizations.
The statement said the CPC's membership structure has improved as younger and better educated people have joined. Also, the coverage of Party organs increased in 2012.
The CPC trained 1.48 million village Party branch secretaries and offered employment and skills training to 15.23 million members during the year.
