BEIJING, Oct. 27 -- The People's Daily, the flagship newspaper of the Communist Party of China (CPC), has stressed the importance of comprehensive and strict governance of the Party.

Hailing that comprehensive and strict governance of the Party is a common aspiration of the entire Party, an editorial of the newspaper said such Party governance efforts are of great significance for the CPC with 88 million members.

A key meeting of the CPC has called on all its members to "closely unite around the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core."

The call was included in a communique released Thursday after the sixth plenary session of the 18th CPC Central Committee, which was held from Monday to Thursday.

The meeting also approved two documents on the discipline of the Party, including the norms of political life within the Party under the new situation and a regulation on intra-Party supervision.

The editorial noted that the core leadership is of great importance to a country and a political party.

It said the two documents approved at the meeting have integrated both the Party's past experience, fine traditions and innovations.

It further called on the entire Party to comprehensively implement the Party's key policies and to prepare for next year's 19th CPC National Congress.

The editorial will be published Friday.
