– We will work to make better use of overseas investment.
We will continue to relax market access restrictions on investment, further open the service sector and the general manufacturing sector, simplify procedures for establishing companies with overseas investment, and step up efforts to attract more investment. We will create new models of opening up for inland and border areas, develop new overseas-oriented industrial clusters, and encourage more overseas investment in the central and western regions. Pilot free trade zones will be established in more parts of the country. We will improve the systems and mechanisms for governing development zones. With these efforts, China’s investment environment will become even more fair, transparent, and predictable, and China will be able to maintain strong appeal and serve as a favorite destination for overseas investment.

6. Step up environmental governance efforts and work to see breakthroughs in green development
Pollution control and environmental protection are important to both the health of our people and sustainable development, so we must work hard moving forward and resolve to take a path that leads to both economic development and environmental improvement.
重拳治理大氣霧霾和水污染。今年化學需氧量、氨氮排放量要分別下降2%，二氧化硫、氮氧化物排放量分別下降3%，重點地區(qū)細顆粒物（PM2.5）濃度繼續(xù)下降。著力抓好減少燃煤排放和機動車排放。加強煤炭清潔高效利用，減少散煤使用，推進以電代煤、以氣代煤。全面實施燃煤電廠超低排放和節(jié)能改造。加快淘汰不符合強制性標準的燃煤鍋爐。增加天然氣供應，完善風能、太陽能、生物質能等發(fā)展扶持政策，提高清潔能源比重。鼓勵秸稈資源化綜合利用，限制直接焚燒。全面推廣車用燃油國五標準，淘汰黃標車和老舊車380萬輛。在重點區(qū)域實行大氣污染聯(lián)防聯(lián)控。全面推進城鎮(zhèn)污水處理設施建設與改造，加強農業(yè)面源污染和流域水環(huán)境綜合治理。加大工業(yè)污染源治理力度，對排污企業(yè)全面實行在線監(jiān)測。強化環(huán)境保護督察，做到獎懲分明。新修訂的環(huán)境保護法必須嚴格執(zhí)行，對超排偷排者必須依法嚴厲打擊，對姑息縱容者必須依法嚴肅追究。

This year, we will ensure that chemical oxygen demand and ammonia nitrogen emissions are both reduced by 2%, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide emissions are cut by 3%, and the density of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in key areas continues to fall. We will focus on promoting the reduction of emissions from the burning of coal and motor vehicles. We will work to promote cleaner and more efficient use of coal, ensure there is less use of untreated coal, and do more to see coal substituted with electricity and natural gas. We will upgrade coal-burning power plants nationwide to achieve ultra-low emissions and energy efficiency, and we will move faster to shut down coal-fired boilers that do not meet compulsory standards.
We will increase natural gas supply, improve policy support for the development of wind, solar, and biomass energy, and increase the proportion of clean energy in total energy consumption. We will encourage a whole range of forms of straw utilization and restrict open burning. We will push for the use of automobile gasoline and diesel fuel that meet National-V standards nationwide and see that 3.8 million old or high-emission vehicles are taken off the roads.
We will coordinate efforts to prevent and control air pollution in regions where it presents a problem.

七）切實保障改善民生，加強社會建設。為政之道，民生為本。我們要念之再三、銘之肺腑，多謀民生之利，多解民生之憂。財政收入增長雖放緩，但該給群眾辦的實事一件也不能少。
7. Strengthen social development to promote people’s well being
The best form of governance is that which puts people’s wellbeing first. We must never lose sight of this and do more to improve the lives of our people and address their concerns. Growth in government revenue is slowing, but when it comes to getting things done for the welfare of the people, we mustn’t drop a single thing.
著力擴大就業(yè)創(chuàng)業(yè)。實施更加積極的就業(yè)政策，鼓勵以創(chuàng)業(yè)帶動就業(yè)。今年高校畢業(yè)生將高達765萬人，要落實好就業(yè)促進計劃和創(chuàng)業(yè)引領計劃，促進多渠道就業(yè)創(chuàng)業(yè)。用好失業(yè)保險基金結余，增加穩(wěn)就業(yè)資金規(guī)模，做好企業(yè)下崗職工技能培訓和再就業(yè)工作，對城鎮(zhèn)就業(yè)困難人員提供托底幫扶。完成2100萬人次以上農民工職業(yè)技能提升培訓任務。加強對靈活就業(yè)、新就業(yè)形態(tài)的扶持。切實做好退役軍人安置和就業(yè)創(chuàng)業(yè)服務工作。

We will use multiple channels to increase employment and encourage entrepreneurship by implementing initiatives for promoting employment of college graduates and guiding them in starting up their own businesses. We will make good use of the surplus from unemployment insurance funds and increase funds for keeping job creation stable to provide skills training for laid-off enterprise employees and help them find new employment and offer basic needs assistance to those in urban areas who face difficulties in securing employment. Over 21 million training opportunities should be provided for migrant workers to improve their skills. We will strengthen assistance for flexible employment and new forms of employment. We will see that demobilized military personnel are settled into new jobs or have good access to employment and business startup services.

– We will promote fairer access to quality education.
Education is where a country’s future and its people’s hopes and aspirations lie. We will allocate a greater share of funds for public education to the central and western regions and to remote and poor areas. We will unify the urban and rural mechanisms for funding compulsory education and improve conditions in boarding schools and schools which are badly built or poorly operated. We will support the development of kindergartens open to all children. We will see that special needs education is well provided. We will work faster to modernize the vocational education system and, type by type, begin waiving all tuition and miscellaneous fees at schools providing secondary vocational education. Students from families with financial difficulties will be the first to be exempted from tuition and miscellaneous fees at regular senior high schools. The salary and other benefits of teachers in rural areas will be increased. We will move faster to promote distance learning and expand the reach of quality educational resources. Institutions of higher learning should strengthen their teaching and their capacity for innovation. Regular undergraduate institutions will be encouraged to shift their focus toward providing applied education if they are in a position to do so. We will continue to help see the increased enrollment of students from poor rural areas into key colleges, and improve and implement policies enabling children who live with their migrant worker parents to go to secondary school or take college entrance exams in their city of residence. We will support the development of privately run educational institutions and work to ensure they meet all relevant standards.
Education should promote the moral, intellectual, physical, and artistic development of students, and particular attention should be given to fostering all kinds of high-caliber creative talent. Families, schools, governments, and our society as a whole must together shoulder the responsibility of ensuring our children, our hope for tomorrow, are safe, healthy, and can grow up with the opportunity to reach their full potential.

– We will advance the coordinated reform of medical services, medical insurance, and the medicine industry.
Health is at the root of happiness. This year, we aim to realize full coverage of the serious disease insurance scheme, and government funding for the scheme will be increased to reduce the financial burdens of more people suffering from serious diseases. The central government will allocate 16 billion yuan to be used in both rural and urban areas for medical assistance and subsidies, an increase of 9.6% over last year. We will merge the basic medical insurance systems for rural and non-working urban residents and raise government subsidies for the scheme from 380 to 420 yuan per capita per annum. We will reform the ways for making medical insurance payouts and expedite the building of a nationwide network for basic medical insurance so that medical expenses can be settled where they are incurred via basic medical insurance accounts.
We will see that more cities participate in piloting comprehensive public hospital reform; move forward in a coordinated way with medical service pricing reform and reform in medicine distribution; and deepen the reform of the evaluation and approval systems for medicines and medical equipment. We will move faster to train general practitioners and pediatricians.

This should ensure that people have access to safe food and medicine and can have confidence in what they are eating and taking.

Initiatives will be launched to pilot comprehensive reform of the elderly care service industry, and progress should be made in developing a variety of forms of combined medical and care services for the elderly.

Per capita subsidies for subsistence allowances in rural and urban areas will be increased by 8% and 5%, respectively. We will speed up the development of social assistance systems so that people with urgent needs have access to assistance and support, helping society become a caring and warm one.

8. Improve government functions, strengthen our administrative capacity, and deliver quality government services
The most formidable tasks demand the greatest sense of mission. Faced with the onerous and complex tasks of reform and development, we in governments at all levels should follow the new vision on development in our work, bear the weight of finishing building a moderately prosperous society in all respects on our shoulders, keep the people’s wellbeing at the forefront of our minds, and build a law-based, innovative, clean, and service-oriented government that the people are satisfied with.
堅持依法履職，把政府活動全面納入法治軌道。各級政府及其工作人員要帶頭嚴格遵守憲法和法律，自覺運用法治思維和法治方式推動工作，法定職責必須為，法無授權不可為。積極推行政府法律顧問制度。深入推進政務公開，充分發(fā)揮傳統(tǒng)媒體、新興媒體作用，利用好網絡平臺，及時回應社會關切，使群眾了解政府做什么、怎么做。各級政府要依法接受同級人大及其常委會的監(jiān)督，自覺接受人民政協(xié)的民主監(jiān)督，接受社會和輿論監(jiān)督，讓權力在陽光下運行。
– We will ensure that all government duties are performed in accordance with the law and that all government activities are carried out in line with the rule of law.
Governments at all levels and all their employees must take the lead in strictly abiding by the Constitution and other laws and conscientiously apply rule of law thinking and approaches in their work; they must carry out all statutory functions and duties and may not do anything not authorized by law. We will actively promote the legal consultation system for government. We will intensify efforts to make government operations more open by making use of both traditional and new media including the Internet to respond in a timely manner to social concerns and inform the public about what the government is doing and how. We in governments at all levels must, as required by law, subject ourselves to the oversight of the people’s congresses at the same levels and their standing committees, and we should willingly subject ourselves to the democratic oversight of CPPCC committees, public oversight, and public opinion-based oversight, so as to exercise power in an open and transparent way.
堅持廉潔履職，深入推進反腐倡廉。認真落實黨風廉政建設主體責任，嚴厲整治各種頂風違紀行為。加強行政監(jiān)察，推進審計全覆蓋。以減權限權、創(chuàng)新監(jiān)管等舉措減少尋租空間，鏟除滋生腐敗土壤。推動黨風廉政建設向基層延伸，堅決糾正侵害群眾利益的不正之風，堅定不移懲治腐敗。
– We will ensure that government duties are performed with integrity and intensify efforts to fight corruption.
We will see that leading Party and government officials at all levels assume full responsibility for improving Party conduct and government integrity, and we will severely punish all types of behavior that constitute flagrant violations of discipline. Administrative supervision will be strengthened, and the whole government system will be placed under auditing. Steps will be taken, such as reducing or limiting certain powers and adopting new forms of supervision, to eliminate room for rent-seeking and eradicate the breeding grounds of corruption. We will ensure that efforts to improve Party conduct and government integrity are extended right down to the community level, resolutely correct improper conduct that harms the interests of the general public, and punish corruption without fail.
堅持勤勉履職，提高執(zhí)行力和公信力。政府工作人員要恪盡職守、夙夜在公，主動作為、善謀勇為。深入踐行“三嚴三實”，增強政治意識、大局意識、核心意識、看齊意識，加強作風和能力建設，打造高素質專業(yè)化的公務員隊伍。健全并嚴格執(zhí)行工作責任制，確保各項政策和任務不折不扣落到實處。健全督查問責機制，堅決整肅庸政懶政怠政行為，決不允許占著位子不干事。健全激勵機制和容錯糾錯機制，給改革創(chuàng)新者撐腰鼓勁，讓廣大干部愿干事、敢干事、能干成事。中國改革開放30多年的輝煌成就，就是廣大干部群眾干出來的。
– We will ensure that officials perform their duties diligently, that government decisions are fully implemented, and that the government’s public credibility is improved.
Government workers must take an active approach to their work, carry out effective planning and decisive implementation, fulfill all their duties, and work tirelessly in service of the public. We will practice the Three Stricts and Three Honests; become more aware of the need to uphold political integrity, keep in mind the bigger picture, follow the CPC as the core of the Chinese leadership, act consistently with CPC Central Committee policy; and improve conduct and competence in order to become a contingent of top-performing public servants with a good command of professional expertise. We will improve and strictly enforce the work responsibility system and fully execute all policies and tasks without fail. We will improve oversight and accountability systems, root out incompetence, inertia, and negligence, and show zero tolerance for those who are on the government payroll but do not perform their duties. We will improve incentive mechanisms and mechanisms to allow for and address mistakes, supporting and motivating those who are committed to carrying out reforms and making innovations. This will help ensure that our officials want to act, are not afraid to act, and are able to act and deliver. The remarkable achievements made in China’s reform and opening up over the past 30 plus years are a result of the actions of our people and our officials.
上下同欲者勝。我們要充分發(fā)揮中央和地方兩個積極性。對真抓實干成效明顯的地方，在建設資金安排、新增建設用地、財政沉淀資金統(tǒng)籌使用等方面，加大獎勵支持力度。鼓勵各地從實際出發(fā)干事創(chuàng)業(yè)，形成競相發(fā)展的生動局面。
Success belongs to those who share, from top to bottom, in one purpose. We will keep both the central and local governments fully motivated. Localities which work diligently and make notable achievements will receive greater incentives and support in terms of development funds, land designations for new construction projects, and idle budgetary funds made available to them. We will encourage all localities to conduct their work in light of their particular circumstances and create a motivational sense of competition in pursuit of development.
各位代表！

We will stick to the Chinese way-the right way-of managing ethnic issues, and uphold and improve the system of regional ethnic autonomy. We will follow closely the Party’s policies concerning ethnic groups, launch extensive activities to promote ethnic unity and progress, facilitate the development of a social structure and a community environment in which different ethnic groups are integrated, and promote interaction, communication, and integration between ethnic groups. We will implement differentiated policies in support of the development of areas with concentrations of ethnic minorities, offer assistance through pairing programs, and protect and develop the fine traditional cultures of ethnic minorities and towns and villages rich in ethnic heritage. We will step up support for the development of ethnic groups with smaller populations and boost efforts to promote the development of the border regions to improve the lives of the people there. In short, we will ensure that all the people of China work together for a moderately prosperous society in all respects.

We will give full expression to their unique strengths and important roles, rally their support, and strengthen the bonds of attachment and affection of all Chinese, whether at home or overseas, to our motherland.

Second, last year saw significant progress in strengthening national defense and the armed forces. This year, in keeping with the Party’s goal of building strong armed forces under new conditions, we will boost efforts to build the armed forces through political work and reform, and run them by law. We will work to make the military more revolutionary, modern, and well-structured in every respect, and remain committed to safeguarding national security. We will uphold the fundamental principle and institution of the Party having absolute leadership over the armed forces, and put into practice the guiding principles adopted at the military’s meeting on political work held in Gutian, Fujian. We will strengthen in a coordinated way military preparedness on all fronts and for all scenarios, and work meticulously to ensure combat readiness and border, coastal, and air defense control. We will step up the development of logistics and equipment. We will make steady progress in reforming military leadership and command structures, and launch reform of the military’s size and structure as well as its policies and institutions. We will ensure law-based development of the armed forces. We will modernize the armed police force. Public awareness about the importance of national defense and national defense mobilization will be strengthened. Closer military-civilian integration will be promoted in important fields, and full consideration will be given to defense needs in the development of important infrastructure. We will develop defense-related science, technology, and industries. Governments at all levels should give full support to strengthening national defense and the armed forces, and we should strive to forge an ever closer bond between the military and the government and between the military and the people in this new era.
我們將全面準確貫徹“一國兩制”、“港人治港”、“澳人治澳”、高度自治的方針，嚴格依照憲法和基本法辦事。全力支持香港、澳門特別行政區(qū)行政長官和政府依法施政。發(fā)揮港澳獨特優(yōu)勢，提升港澳在國家經濟發(fā)展和對外開放中的地位和功能。深化內地與港澳合作，促進港澳提升自身競爭力。我們相信，香港、澳門一定會保持長期繁榮穩(wěn)定。

We pledge our full support to the chief executives and governments of the two regions as they conduct governance in accordance with their respective laws. We will give expression to the distinctive strengths of Hong Kong and Macao, and elevate their positions and roles in China’s economic development and opening up. We will work to deepen cooperation between the mainland and these two regions and help Hong Kong and Macao strengthen their competitiveness. We are convinced that Hong Kong and Macao will maintain long-term prosperity and stability.

We will strive to make progress in cross-Straits economic integration. We will encourage cultural, educational, scientific, and technological exchanges and help strengthen exchanges between ordinary people and the younger generation between both sides of the Straits. Guided by the conviction that people on both sides of the Straits belong to one and the same family, we will share with our fellow countrymen and women in Taiwan both the responsibility of the Chinese nation and opportunities for development and jointly build a cross-Straits community of common destiny.
我們將繼續(xù)高舉和平、發(fā)展、合作、共贏的旗幟，踐行中國特色大國外交理念，維護國家主權、安全、發(fā)展利益。辦好在我國舉行的二十國集團領導人峰會，推動世界經濟創(chuàng)新增長，完善全球經濟金融治理。加強與各主要大國協(xié)調合作，建設良性互動、合作共贏的大國關系。秉持親誠惠容的周邊外交理念，與地區(qū)國家持久和平相處、聯(lián)動融合發(fā)展。深化南南合作、促進共同發(fā)展，維護發(fā)展中國家正當合法權益。建設性參與解決全球性和熱點問題。加快海外利益保護能力建設，切實保護我國公民和法人安全。中國愿與國際社會一道，為人類和平與發(fā)展事業(yè)不懈努力！

We will host the G20 leaders’ summit to promote innovative growth in the global economy and improve global economic and financial governance. We will step up coordination and cooperation with all other major countries and develop with them relations characterized by positive interaction and win-win cooperation. Guided by the policy of amity, sincerity, mutual benefit, and inclusiveness in developing relations with our neighbors, we will work with other countries in our region to maintain lasting peaceful relations and coordinated and integrated development. We will help deepen South-South cooperation, promote common development, and safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of developing countries. We will participate constructively in solving global and sensitive issues. We will move faster to strengthen our capacity for safeguarding China’s overseas interests and protect the safety of Chinese nationals and legal persons. China will work tirelessly with the rest of the international community to promote the peace and development of all of humanity.
各位代表！
Esteemed Deputies,
奮斗才能贏得未來。讓我們更加緊密地團結在以習近平同志為總書記的黨中央周圍，凝心聚力，奮發(fā)進取，努力完成今年經濟社會發(fā)展目標任務，確保全面建成小康社會決勝階段良好開局，為建成富強民主文明和諧的社會主義現(xiàn)代化國家、實現(xiàn)中華民族偉大復興的中國夢作出新的貢獻！
Our future can be secured only through hard work. Let us rally closer around the CPC Central Committee headed by General Secretary Xi Jinping and, working together and remaining of one mind, strive to fulfill this year’s economic and social development tasks and targets. Let us thus make a good start to the decisive stage of finishing building a moderately prosperous society in all respects, and make new contributions to turning China into a modern socialist country that is prosperous, strong, democratic, culturally advanced, and harmonious and to achieving the Chinese Dream of the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
