China's Communist Party yesterday promised to "deal with unqualified members in a timely way." A handful of Party members are "corrupt and degenerate," Party leaders warned at a meeting of its Central Committee Political Bureau.
"The faith of a few Party members has wavered and they have a weak understanding of the Party's tenets and have not followed discipline," said a statement issued after the meeting.
The gathering, presided over by General Secretary Xi Jinping, discussed strengthening the recruitment and management of Party members.
"Some Party organs are not strict with enlisting members and the quality of members who are recruited needs improvement," the statement said, adding that such problems had affected the Party's "vigor and vitality" and its image and prestige among the public.
They had also impaired the Party's "creativity, cohesiveness and combat power."
The Party will enhance its members' vigor and vitality by improving encouragement and assistance mechanisms and building a system of serving the people, the statement said.
"Party members are the cells of the CPC organism and the main part of its activities," it said.
Those present at yesterday's meeting in Beijing agreed that the addition of many outstanding members had injected new blood into the organization.
Party members had played a "leading and exemplary role" in promoting scientific development and social harmony and in serving the people, especially in completing major tasks and combating natural disasters, the statement said.
However, it added, with the deepening of reform and opening-up, the development of the socialist market economy and the expansion of Party membership, the task of regulating the Party had become more arduous, with more challenges ahead.
Strengthening the recruitment and management of Party members was of great significance to implementing the spirit of the 18th CPC National Congress and "maintaining the Party's advanced and pure nature," the statement said.
It added that "the overall number of Party members should be controlled, and the membership structure and quality should be optimized in order to let them play their role."
Efforts should be made to "absorb advanced and outstanding personnel to our Party" so as to build a force of "moderate scale, reasonable structure, sound quality, strict discipline and outstanding work style."
The education and cultivation of those eager to join the Party should be strengthened, and democracy expanded in the recruitment process, the statement said. Work procedures and discipline should be strict in order to enhance the quality of recruits, it added.
The leaders agreed that efforts will be made to recruit members from the country's young workers, farmers and intellectuals.
