Ibrahim Yusuf, chairman of the executive board of Indonesia's Council on World Affairs, told Xinhua that over the past 30 years, China's reform and opening-up policy has inspired Asia's economic growth, while its practice of maintaining political stability has promoted development in Asia.

Hartind Asrin, advisor to the Indonesian defense minister, said since China began to implement reform and opening-up policy back in the 1980s, China has maintained robust economic growth.

He also said the Chinese leaders have now shifted their attention to working out how to maintain sustainable growth and promote people's living standards.

Mohamad A.El-Saket, former Arab League ambassador, told Xinhua that the achievement China has made is attributed to the CPC's flexibility in adjusting its policies.

Under the guidance of the reform and opening-up policy, the CPC has made a success, and turned China into a global power with both regional and international influence, as well as a key global economy.

An editorial published by Malaysia's Sin Chew Daily said over the next 10 years and under the new leadership, China will complete the project of building a well-off society, and realize the goal of doubling its GDP and average per capita income for both urban and rural residents on the levels of 2010.

The Chinese government will give Chinese people access to greater democratic rights, comprehensively improve the people's livelihood, promote the country's soft power, and build a resource-conserving and environment-friendly society, said the editorial.
