| Looking to the future, all the comrades in the Party must never forget that it was thanks to reform and opening up that China has developed rapidly in the past 30 plus years, and we must promote China's future development by continuing to carry out reform and opening up. |
面向未来，全党同志必须牢记，我国过去３０多年的快速发展靠的是改革开放，我国未来发展也必须坚定不移依靠改革开放。 |
| The most salient feature of the new period is reform and opening up. Reform and opening up constitute a great new revolution carried out by the people under the leadership of the Party in the new historical stage. They are a critical choice that holds the future of contemporary China. They are what we must pursue in upholding and building socialism with Chinese characteristics and achieving the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Only by carrying out reform and opening up can we develop China, socialism, and Marxism. Profound changes are taking place in the world, in China, and in the Party. China suffers from a serious lack of balance, coordination, and sustainability in its development; and there are institutional obstacles to scientific development. In no way can we get around these problems, which must be resolved in the course of deepening reform. We must firmly follow the line, principles, and policies adopted since the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Party Central Committee, be confident and courageous, apply the spirit of reform and innovation to all aspects of government administration and strive to make greater progress in reform and opening up. We should keep developing the socialist market economy in our reform, ensure the soundness of decisions concerning reform and enhance coordination of reform measures taken. We should identify areas where breakthroughs can be made, set priorities in deepening reform and opening up, advance reform in important areas and key links when opportunities are ripe and continue to reform the economic, political, cultural and social systems in an innovative way. We should further free and develop the productive forces, promote the self-improvement and self-development of the socialist system, and get rid of all the notions and remove all the institutional drawbacks that hinder scientific development. By doing so, we will create a strong momentum in advancing the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics. |
新时期最鲜明的特点是改革开放。改革开放是党在新的历史条件下领导人民进行的新的伟大革命，是决定当代中国命运的关键抉择，是坚持和发展中国特色社会主义、实现中华民族伟大复兴的必由之路。只有改革开放才能发展中国、发展社会主义、发展马克思主义。当前，世情、国情、党情继续发生深刻变化，我国发展中不平衡、不协调、不可持续问题突出，制约科学发展的体制机制障碍躲不开、绕不过，必须通过深化改革加以解决。我们一定要坚定不移坚持党的十一届三中全会以来的路线方针政策，坚定信心、砥砺勇气，坚持不懈把改革创新精神贯彻到治国理政各个环节，奋力把改革开放推向前进。要坚持社会主义市场经济的改革方向，提高改革决策的科学性，增强改革措施的协调性，找准深化改革开放的突破口，明确深化改革开放的重点，不失时机地推进重要领域和关键环节改革，继续推进经济体制、政治体制、文化体制、社会体制改革创新，继续解放和发展社会生产力，继续推动我国社会主义制度自我完善和发展，坚决破除一切妨碍科学发展的思想观念和体制机制弊端，为推进中国特色社会主义事业注入强大动力。 |
| On the way forward, we must firmly carry out the central task of economic development and stay committed to pursuing scientific development. |
在前进道路上，我们要继续牢牢扭住经济建设这个中心不动摇，坚定不移走科学发展道路。 |
| Pursuing economic development as our central task is essential for reinvigorating China and achieving prosperity and enduring political stability of our Party and country. Only by promoting sound and rapid economic development can we build a strong material foundation for enhancing China's development and prosperity, ensuring happiness and wellbeing of the people of all our ethnic groups and achieving the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. In the past 30 plus years of reform and opening up, we have pursued economic development as the top priority and developed the productive forces at an unprecedented speed. This is the fundamental reason for the marked improvement in China's overall strength, the living standards of the Chinese people and China's international standing. In the time to come, we must continue to follow the strategic thinking that only development counts and firmly carry out the central task of economic development, and we should not waver in the slightest in this pursuit. |
以经济建设为中心是兴国之要，是我们党、我们国家兴旺发达、长治久安的根本要求。只有推动经济又好又快发展，才能筑牢国家发展繁荣的强大物质基础，才能筑牢全国各族人民幸福安康的强大物质基础，才能筑牢中华民族伟大复兴的强大物质基础。改革开放３０多年来，我们坚持以经济建设为中心，推动社会生产力以前所未有的速度发展起来，这是我国综合国力、人民生活水平、国际地位大幅度提升的根本原因。今后，我们必须继续牢牢坚持发展是硬道理的战略思想，牢牢扭住经济建设这个中心，决不能有丝毫动摇。 |
| The productive forces are the primary force driving the development of human society. Our Party entered the historical arena representing China's advanced productive forces. All the Party's endeavors are pursued to free and develop the productive forces and improve the people's lives. We have made remarkable achievements. However, China's basic condition has not changed, that is, it is still is in the primary stage of socialism and will remain so for a long time to come, and the principal issue in society is still how to meet the ever-growing material and cultural needs of the people while upgrading backward social production. And China's international status as the largest developing country in the world has not changed. Development is still the key to solving all the problems in China. We should seize and make the most of the important and strategic opportunities that have presented themselves now and in the coming period to promote China's development. To do so will enable us to take the initiative, gain advantages and ensure victory in the future. But this also presents a major test for our Party's governance capacity and for our nation's self-improvement capacity. We must continue to focus on pursuing development and consolidate the material foundation for upholding and building socialism with Chinese characteristics. |
生产力是人类社会发展的根本动力。我们党是以中国先进生产力的代表登上历史舞台的。党的一切奋斗，归根到底都是为了解放和发展社会生产力，不断改善人民生活。我们已经取得了举世瞩目的伟大成就，但我国仍处于并将长期处于社会主义初级阶段的基本国情没有变，人民日益增长的物质文化需要同落后的社会生产之间的矛盾这一社会主要矛盾没有变，我国是世界上最大的发展中国家的国际地位没有变。发展仍然是解决我国所有问题的关键。牢牢抓住和用好我国发展的重要战略机遇期，是我们赢得主动、赢得优势、赢得未来的关键所在，是对我们党执政能力的重大考验，也是对我们民族自强能力的重大考验。我们必须继续聚精会神搞建设、一心一意谋发展，不断夯实坚持和发展中国特色社会主义的物质基础。 |
| In contemporary China, only development counts, and this calls for pursuing scientific development. We should take scientific development as the goal and give priority to accelerating the shift of model of economic development. We also need to place more emphasis on the following efforts: putting people first; promoting comprehensive, coordinated, and sustainable development; taking all factors into consideration when making overall plans; carrying out reform and opening up; and ensuring and improving the people's wellbeing. We will accelerate strategic adjustment of the economic structure, scientific and technological progress and innovation, and the building of a resource-conserving and environmentally friendly society. We will promote fairness and justice; long-term, steady and rapid economic development; and social harmony and stability. We will continue to make new and greater achievements in pursuing civilized development that leads to increased production, better lives for the people, and a sound ecosystem, and thus lay a more solid foundation for building a moderately prosperous society in all respects and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. |
在当代中国，坚持发展是硬道理的本质要求就是坚持科学发展。我们要以科学发展为主题，以加快转变经济发展方式为主线，更加注重以人为本，更加注重全面协调可持续发展，更加注重统筹兼顾，更加注重改革开放，更加注重保障和改善民生，加快经济结构战略性调整，加快科技进步和创新，加快建设资源节约型、环境友好型社会，促进社会公平正义，促进经济长期平稳较快发展和社会和谐稳定，不断在生产发展、生活富裕、生态良好的文明发展道路上取得新的更大的成绩，不断为全面建成小康社会、实现中华民族伟大复兴打下更为坚实的基础。 |
