China Commemorates Youth Movement
The Communist Youth League of China (CYLC) and All-China Students' Federation organized a forum on the December 9th Youth Movement which occurred 65 years in the country.
At the forum, Ren Jianxin, vice chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), said that the December 9th Movement, which was another important democratic campaign participated in by students after the May 4th Movement in 1919, greatly influenced the democratic and revolutionary development in China.
The movement showed that the fate of young people was closely linked with the fate of the whole nation, said Ren.
Ren hoped that the youth at modern times should carry forward patriotism and the glorious tradition of the movement.
Zhou Qiang, first secretary of the Secretariat of the CYLC Central Committee, said that the youth movement led by the Communist Party of China (CPC) was not only an important event in China's revolutionary history, but also a milestone of the history of youth movement.
He urged the young people to persistently adhere in the cause of building socialism with Chinese characteristics and make further contribution to their motherland.
More than 60 old revolutionists, including Huang Hua and Deng Liqun, and some student representatives took part in the forum at the Great Hall of the People.
