Editor's Note:

The book of Xi Jinping: The Governance of China includes a number of Chinese President Xi Jinping's governance ideas that involve improving Party conduct, such as "the issue of working style is in no sense a small one." Xi stressed that "if the Party has a sound style of work, then the people are at peace and willing to stand with the Party in both success and adversity." In March, the Communist Party of China (CPC) launched a Party-wide education campaign to implement its central leadership's Eight-Rules decision on improving work conduct, immediately after the conclusion of the annual two sessions. The move underscores that the Eight Rules have not only become a "golden hallmark" of the CPC's efforts to improve Party conduct in the new era, but also a mobilization order for Party members to uphold credibility with concrete actions, stay clean and dedicated in their work, and create new achievements.

In the second installment of the "Decoding the Book of Xi Jinping: The Governance of China" series, the Global Times (GT) continues to invite Chinese and international scholars, translators of the work, practitioners of its concepts, and overseas readers to share their insights, understandings and reflections on CPC's efforts to improve Party conduct and promote full, rigorous Party self-governance.
