Communist Party of China opened the 19th
party congress on Wednesday. President Xi Jinping read out the report of
Central Committee, in which he declared new political target of building strong
country of socialism by the one hundred anniversary of establishment of
People’s Republic of China in 2049. Japan has to face stronger great power of
communists in volatile Northeast Asia.
It was the first time for Xi to make
political report to the congress, which would be held every five years. Xi
stressed his achievement in his first term to have built up a thought of
“unique socialism of China in new era,” defining it as a guideline of the
struggle for great reconstruction of Chinese nation by the party as a whole and
all the people. He declared building of “beautiful and strong country of modern
socialism with prosperity, democracy, civilization and harmony.”
To reinforce his new concept, Xi raised
some targets to achieve. He set the target in 2020 to complete “moderately
prosperous society,” as well as improving China’s power in economy and
scientific technology by 2035 to lead the country to a modernized socialism
with extremely small gap between the rich and poor. In his idea, the great
power of modernized socialist nation with world top-level national power and
international influence in the middle of this century.
He did not forget referring to the growth
of military power. Reviewing these five years as having achieved “historical
breakthrough in the reform of national defense and military,” Xi promised to
build up military power in the first class of the world through modernization
of the organization and equipments. He insisted protection of the rights of
military personnel and their family to persuade the military frustrated with
reduction of manpower in the reform.
It is expected that those concepts
announced by Xi will become a new guideline of China named after him, which
reminds of Thought of Mao Zedong or Theory of Deng Xiaoping. By putting himself
on the position paralleled with past prominent leaders, Xi hopes to grab strong
governance in all over China. It is not only about a great leader of China but
the world.
Japan will have to deal with the giant
authoritarian regime led by a leader who is not elected by direct election of
the people. Japan cannot expect that China will release its core interest in
East China Sea around Senkaku Island or other are in western Pacific Ocean.
Great socialism of China will cause frequent frictions with neighbor countries,
which can lead to serious conflicts in the region.
