With the COVID-19 epidemic brought under control， China convened the annual sessions of its top legislature， National Peoples Congress （NPC）， and the political consultative body， the Chinese Peoples Political Consultative Conference （CPPCC）， often termed as “two sessions，” in late May， delayed for more than two months compared with the schedule in previous years.

Eradicating absolute poverty， upholding people-centered philosophy， and seeking new opportunities from challenges， Chinese President Xi Jinping sent reassuring messages at times of uncertainty and difficulty， while participating in deliberations with national legislators and joining in discussions with political advisors.

“People first” was the keyword in the discussions， which has been well displayed in the countrys endeavor to contain the epidemic and save peoples life. This year， China decided not to set a specific annual economic growth target， but set its eyes on winning the battle against poverty and finishing building a moderately prosperous society in all respects.

Meanwhile， the country anticipates faster growth in sectors of the digital economy， intelligent manufacturing， life and health， new materials， and other strategic emerging industries， highlighting the creation of new growth areas and drivers.
