Senior political advisors on Saturday discussed and put forward proposals to improve a draft work report for China's top political advisory body.

Members of the Standing Committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), China's top advisory body, attended group discussions on the report.

Jia Qinglin, chairman of the CPPCC National Committee and member of the Standing Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee Political Bureau, was present at the discussion.

During the discussions, senior political advisors agreed the draft report was comprehensive, focused to the point and concise. They also put forward proposals to revise and improve the draft report.

Senior political advisors said the CPPCC had united and mobilized non-communist parties, social organizations, ethnic groups and people from all walks of life to strive for development, improve people's livelihood and promote social harmony last year.

The CPPCC had made important contributions to effectively offsetting the impact of the global financial crisis, advancing the construction of a well-off society and promoting the national reunification cause last year, they said.

The CPPCC reflects China's "multi-party cooperation system" under the leadership of the CPC.

The CPPCC committees at different levels have representatives from different political groups, ethnic groups, and people of all walks of life.
