Senior CPC Official Meets Iranian Delegation
Wei Jianxing, a standing member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC), met in Beijing November 22 with a delegation from the Worker's House of Iran, led by General- secretary Alireza Mahjoub.
Wei, also a member of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee and president of the All-China Federation of Trade Unions (ACFTU), briefed the guests on China's current political and economic situation and the upcoming tenth five-year plan (2001- 2005).
He noted that China's economy and labor conditions have undergone profound changes since the reform and opening-up, saying that the Chinese trade unions bear the enormous responsibilities of protecting the legal rights and interests of workers.
In recent years, Chinese trade unions have been trying hard to keep the balance between protecting the basic rights and interests of the workers and taking into consideration the overall interests of the Chinese people as a whole, Wei said.
Chinese trade unions have also been active in protecting the democratic rights, and spiritual and cultural aspirations of the workers, he said.
Wei said that he hopes the trade unions of the two countries will further their exchange and friendship and learn from each other.
Mahjoub praised the achievements China has made in its reform and opening-up drive. He attributed the achievements to the leadership of the CPC, the hard work of the Chinese people, and the policies suited to China's conditions.
Mahjoub also noted that the trade unions of the two countries have a long-term friendship, adding that the Iranian trade unions are willing to further the exchanges and cooperation with their Chinese counterparts.
The Iranian guests are here at the invitation of the ACFTU.
