About 40 years after China set sail on its voyage of reform and opening-up, the journey is still going full speed and heading toward ever greater goals.

At the 19th Communist Party of China National Congress in October, Xi Jinping, general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, president, and chairman of Central Military Commission, outlined new moves to deepen reform in all areas.

In his report to the Party congress, Xi listed "continuing to comprehensively deepen reform" in the basic policy to uphold and develop socialism with Chinese characteristics for a new era.

The report proposed 158 reform measures and clarified important reform areas and key sections, including supply-side structural reform, which prioritizes improving the quality of the supply system.
