Political advisors said yesterday in Beijing that China’s top political advisory body has put Expo 2010 as one of its top priorities for this year as it mentioned organizing a successful Expo 2010 twice in its annual report.

Members of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference said that "Better City, Better Life" echoes with the mainstream philosophy of scientific development and development in harmony. Advisors said that CPPCC should offer advice not only for Expo 2010 itself but also for spreading Expo 2010's message and influence onto other economic and social developments.

Shanghai’s top political advisor Feng Guoqin said that CPPCC has offered good advices for a “smooth and relatively fast” development, social harmony and stability, economy achievements in financially difficult times.

CPPCC has organized press conferences and speeches in recent two annual meetings to promote Expo 2010 among CPPCC members, Feng added. He said he was also impressed that many CPPCC leaders came to Shanghai to inspect the preparation work for Expo 2010.

Political advisors also said that this year is a challenging year, during which China has to upgrade its economic structure, promote sustainable development, build a harmonious society and beef up the quality of people's lives.

They also said that they will better carry out their responsibilities by submitting proposals between CPPCC sessions, coordinating resources within CPPCC and local political advisory bodies as well launching in-depth research projects.
