Zhou Guangzhao, vice-chairman of the NPC Standing Committee, will head the delegation. In accordance with AAPP charter, Li Peng, chairman of the NPC Standing Committee, will chair and preside over the meeting.

The NPC delegation includes heads of NPC's special committees and lawmakers from Chongqing and the adjacent Hubei Province. Lu Congmin, deputy secretary-general of the NPC Standing Committee, will serve as the secretary-general of NPC delegation.

In line with the theme of "peace and development", lawmakers will discuss a wide spectrum of issues including multi-polarization in the world politics, world peace, economic globalization and its ensuing impact upon developing nations and how to strengthen international cooperation for a new international political and economic order.
