President Xi Jinping has projected strong confidence for the Communist Party on both domestic governance and international standing in a speech on Wednesday to mark the 105th anniversary of the founding of the party.

In a comprehensive and wide-ranging address, Xi reviewed the history of the party, recounting its historical achievements and summarising the key factors behind its success, including maintaining the party’s purity and discipline.

Xi highlighted the party’s success as a new path for developing countries.

“This has created a new form of human civilisation and opened up new paths for developing countries to modernise. China has also contributed its ideas and solutions to major global challenges.”

Xi was direct on the party’s standing, calling it the world’s largest ruling party with “significant global influence” that has the “genuine support of the people”.
