President Xi Jinping on March 5 stressed efforts to
maintain strategic resolve in enhancing the building of an ecological
civilization and to protect the country's beautiful scenery in the northern
border areas.
Xi, also general secretary of the Communist Party of
China (CPC) Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission,
made the remarks when attending a panel discussion with his fellow deputies
from Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region at the second session of the 13th
National People's Congress, China's national legislature.
The president called for intensified protection of the
ecological system, urging people to fight resolutely against pollution.
The Party's theory on an ecological civilization has
been constantly enriched and improved since the 18th CPC National Congress in
late 2012, Xi said.
All localities and departments should earnestly
implement the Party's arrangement and requirements for building an ecological
civilization, pushing it to a new level, Xi said.
Building Inner Mongolia into an important shield for
ecological security in northern China is a strategic position set with full
consideration of the country's overall development and a major responsibility
the region must shoulder, Xi said.
Fundamentally speaking, environmental protection and
economic development are closely integrated and complemented each other, Xi
said.
In the Chinese economy's transition from the phase of
rapid growth to a stage of high-quality development, pollution control and
environmental governance are two major tasks that must be accomplished, he added.
The country should explore a new path of high-quality
development that prioritizes ecology and highlights green development, Xi said.
With its diversified natural forms including forests,
grasslands, wetlands, rivers, lakes and deserts, Inner Mongolia features a
comprehensive ecological system formed over a long period of time. Integrated
measures should be taken in ecological protection and rehabilitation in the
region, he said.
Xi underlined a resolute and effective fight to prevent
and control pollution, saying prominent environmental issues the people are
strongly concerned about must be addressed properly.
