Delegates hail motion proposal

Delegates to the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China have hailed a proposal in President Hu Jintao's report to introduce a motion system that enables Party delegates to collectively put forward their opinions and suggestions - like legislators do - to develop democracy within the Party.

In his report to the congress, Hu said intra-Party-democracy, which is the "life of the Party", should be further promoted to enhance the Party's vitality.

The implementation of the motion system was listed as one of the measures in the report.
