“Improving Our Ability to Participate in Global Governance” contains the main points of a speech delivered at the 35th group study session of the 18th Central Committee Political Bureau on September 27, 2016. The speech states, “Owing to changes in the international balance of power and the proliferation of global challenges, there has been a rising tide of demand for stronger global governance and a transformation of the global governance system. We should take economic development as the central task, and concentrate our efforts on managing our own affairs well to keep improving our capacity to speak and act on the international stage. We should actively participate in global governance and willingly shoulder international responsibilities. We must do all we can within the limitations of our capabilities.”
