PEOPLE across the country marked the 76th anniversary of the People’s Republic of China on Wednesday with travel, shopping and family reunions as an eight-day holiday began.
Hundreds of millions are on the move, foreign tourist arrivals are rising, and smart factories are running at full capacity to fill surging global orders.
Beyond the bustle of activity, another task is underway: policymakers are drafting the country’s next phase of development.
Under President Xi Jinping’s leadership, China is formulating its next fiveyear plan. In three weeks, the Communist Party of China (CPC) leadership will convene a closely-watched plenum to review its proposals for the plan.
The 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-2030) for National Economic and Social Development is the latest in a series of blueprints that, since the 1950s, have guided the country’s rise from an impoverished, agrarian nation to the world’s second-largest economy.
