On the morning of October 16th, the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) opened at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. General Secretary Xi Jinping delivered a report to Congress on behalf of the 19th CPC Central Committee. KUST’s teachers and students watched the live broadcast of the grand opening ceremony.

The students and teachers of KUST unanimously agreed that the report, from a commanding height when considering both China's national rejuvenation and the drastic changes in the world unseen in a century, scientifically lays out goals, tasks, and major policies for developing the cause of the Party and the country in the next five years or more. The report also presents a macroscopic outlook of building China into a great, modern, socialist country in all respects through the two-step development strategy. All the students and teachers were inspired and motivated by the report and expressed that they would study, strive to understand, and implement the spirit of the 20th CPC National Congress in-depth and never relent in the pursuit of building a modern socialist country and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
