Top political advisor commends China Soong Ching Ling Foundation

Xinhua, November 4, 2016 Adjust font size:

Top political advisor Yu Zhengsheng on Friday commended the role played by the China Soong Ching Ling Foundation (CSCLF) in international friendship, cross-Strait exchanges and the welfare of children and teenagers.

Yu, chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), made the remarks when delivering a speech at a council meeting of the CSCLF.

As a "people's organization under the leadership of Communist Party of China (CPC)," the CSCLF should closely follow major decisions and the deployment of the CPC Central Committee; deepen cross-Strait exchanges and people-to-people diplomacy; and better serve youngsters for them to grow and prosper, Yu said.

Yu also said Party committees and governments at all levels should continue offering guidance and support to the CSCLF.

Named after Soong Ching Ling, the wife of Sun Yat-sen, the CSCLF is a Beijing-based foundation focused on international and cross-Strait exchanges, as well as the welfare of children and teenagers. Endit
