President Xi Jinping delivers a New Year message for 2003

Hello everyone! 2023 is coming soon, and I would like to extend my beautiful New Year wishes to everyone in Beijing!

　　In 2022, we successfully convened the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, mapped out a grand blueprint for building a socialist modern country in an all-round way and comprehensively promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese path to modernization, and sounded the clarion call of the times for a new journey.

　　China continues to maintain its position as the world's second-largest economy, with steady economic development and an estimated annual gross domestic product exceeding 120 trillion yuan. Faced with the global food crisis, China's food production has achieved "nineteen consecutive harvests", and the Chinese people's rice bowls have become even more secure. We will consolidate the achievements of poverty alleviation, comprehensively promote rural revitalization, take a series of measures such as tax reduction and fee reduction to alleviate difficulties for enterprises, and focus on solving the urgent problems and worries of the people.

　　Since the outbreak of the epidemic, we have always adhered to the principle of putting the people first and their lives first. We have persisted in scientific and precise prevention and control, optimized and adjusted prevention and control measures according to the time and situation, and maximized the protection of people's life safety and physical health. The vast number of cadres and the masses, especially medical personnel and grassroots workers, are not afraid of hardships and bravely adhere to them. Through arduous efforts, we have overcome unprecedented difficulties and challenges, and no one is easy. At present, the epidemic prevention and control has entered a new stage, and it is still a time of perseverance. Everyone is persevering and working hard, and the dawn is ahead. Everyone work harder, persistence is victory, unity is victory.

　　In 2022, Comrade Jiang Zemin left us. We deeply commemorate his great achievements and noble demeanor, and cherish the precious spiritual wealth he left behind. We must inherit his legacy and continuously advance the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.

　　The long river of history is magnificent, and generation after generation of people have continued to strive and create today's China.

　　Today's China is a country where dreams come true one after another. The Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympics were successfully held, and ice and snow athletes raced on the field, achieving remarkable results. Shenzhou 13, 14, and 15 took off in relay, China's space station was fully built, and our "space home" soared into the sky. The People's Army celebrates its 95th birthday, and the vast number of officers and soldiers are marching forward with high spirits on the journey of building a strong military. The third aircraft carrier "Fujian" was launched, the first C919 large aircraft was officially delivered, and the Baihetan hydropower station was fully put into operation... All of these are the hard work and sweat of countless people. A little spark, converging into a torch, this is the power of China!

　　Today's China is full of vitality and energy. Various free trade pilot zones and Hainan Free Trade Port are flourishing, coastal areas are actively innovating, central and western regions are accelerating development, Northeast China is poised for revitalization, and border areas are prospering and enriching the people. The resilience, potential, and vitality of the Chinese economy remain strong, and the long-term positive fundamentals remain unchanged. As long as we have firm confidence and strive for progress while maintaining stability, we will definitely be able to achieve our set goals. I went to Hong Kong this year and was very pleased to see that Hong Kong will be prosperous and prosperous. By firmly implementing the principle of 'one country, two systems', Hong Kong and Macao will surely achieve long-term prosperity and stability.

　　Today's China is a continuation of the national spirit. The natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, droughts, wildfires, and some safety accidents that occurred this year are heart wrenching and heartbreaking, but the scenes of sacrificing one's life for righteousness and helping each other are deeply moving. The heroic deeds will always be remembered in our hearts. Whenever we bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, we always remember the magnificent spirit of the Chinese nation's millennium heritage and double our confidence in moving forward.

　　Today's China is closely linked to the world. This year, I welcomed many old and new friends in Beijing, and also went abroad to talk about China's propositions. The world is not at peace with the accelerated evolution of a century of changes. We have always cherished peace and development, always cherished friends and partners, firmly stood on the right side of history and the progress of human civilization, and worked hard to contribute Chinese wisdom and Chinese solutions to the cause of human peace and development.

　　After the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, I went to Yan'an with my colleagues to review the glorious years when the Party Central Committee defeated the rare difficulties in the world during the Yan'an period, and felt the spiritual strength of the older generation of Communists. I often say that hardships and hardships make you Yu Cheng. The Communist Party of China has been in the wind and rain for a hundred years, and it has overcome difficulties and great. We must forge ahead and work hard to make tomorrow's China better.

　　Tomorrow's China, struggle to create miracles. Su Shi has a saying: "if you make it difficult, you can go far", which means "to attack the most difficult place and pursue the most ambitious goal". Although the road is far, the line will come. Although things are difficult, they will be done. As long as you have the ambition of Yugong to move mountains, the perseverance of dripping water through stones, keep your feet on the ground, work hard, and accumulate steps to thousands of miles, you will surely be able to turn the grand goal into a beautiful reality.

　　Tomorrow's China, strength comes from unity. China is so big that different people have different demands and different views on the same matter. This is normal. It is necessary to build consensus through communication and consultation. More than 1.4 billion Chinese people think in one place, work hard in one place, and work together in the same boat, there will be no things that cannot be done or obstacles that cannot be overcome. one family on both sides of the strait. I sincerely hope that compatriots on both sides of the strait will meet each other and go hand in hand to create the long-term well-being of the Chinese nation.

　　Tomorrow's China, hope to the youth. If the youth prosper, the country will prosper. China's development depends on the broad masses of young people. Young and full of vigor, youth breeds hope. The vast number of young people should cultivate their feelings of home and country, cultivate their enterprising character, and promote their youth with a struggling attitude, so as to live up to the times and the Chinese year.

　　At this moment, many people are still working hard, everyone is working hard! The bell of the New Year is about to ring. Let's welcome the first ray of sunshine in 2023 with a better yearning for the future.

　　I wish the motherland prosperity, prosperity and peace! Wish the world peace, happiness and tranquility! I wish you all a happy New Year and all your wishes!

　　Thank you!
