China to Mark 90th Anniversary of 1911 Revolution

China will hold a series of activities this year to mark the 90th anniversary of the Revolution of 1911, which falls on October 10.

This was decided by the Standing Committee of Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) National Committee, a top advisory body, at a conference Wednesday.

The Revolution of 1911 ended thousands of years of monarchy in China, and was the first democratic revolution in modern China.

A resolution by the CPPCC said that marking the Revolution of 1911 is of great significance in inspiring patriotism and strengthening the unity of the Chinese people for the early reunification of the motherland.

The CPPCC decided that a grand conference will held to mark the event. It ordered the setting up of a special office chaired by Vice-Chairman Ye Xuanping to prepare for the anniversary activities.

The meeting also approved the augmentation of 76 persons to the CPPCC National Committee.
