2017 On October 31, General Secretary Xi Jinping led the newly elected members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee on a special visit from Beijing to Shanghai and Jiaxing in Zhejiang, where they paid tribute at the site of the First National Congress of the Communist Party of China in Shanghai and aboard the Red Boat on Nanhu Lake in Jiaxing. They reviewed the history of the Party’s founding, reaffirmed their oath of admission, and delivered an important address. Facing the Party flag, the new Standing Committee solemnly took their oath, their heartfelt emotions and unwavering conviction deeply moving, inspiring, and motivating every Party member, and firmly reinforcing their resolve to keep their入党誓词 (oath of admission) firmly in mind and dedicate their lives to the cause of the Party.
In order to thoroughly study and implement the spirit of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, further unify thinking, rally strength, and forever follow the Party, On November 5, Comrade Luo Yinchang, Secretary of the Party Branch of Shandong Yuegong Steel Components Co., Ltd., led all party members on a visit to Xibai Po, the sacred site of the Chinese revolution, for study and reflection. With profound excitement and reverence, they studied the history of the Party, reaffirmed their oath of admission, and participated in a highly meaningful organizational activity.

Although what we see there are merely a few single-story houses built of mud bricks, with furnishings so rudimentary they verge on the “primitive,” and a life marked by poverty and frugality, it was in this remote rural village that the Chinese Communists accomplished feats of momentous historical significance. Here, Chairman Mao and the CPC Central Committee led the nationwide land reform movement, thereby deepening the Party’s mass base; they also directed the three great campaigns—the Liaoshen, Huaihai, and Pingjin—which shook both China and the world, annihilating or reorganizing over 1.54 million Kuomintang troops; and they convened the Second Plenary Session of the Seventh CPC Central Committee, a meeting of pivotal historical importance, at which Chairman Mao issued his two solemn admonitions to the entire Party: “We must ensure that our comrades continue to maintain a style of humility, prudence, modesty, and composure; and we must ensure that our comrades continue to uphold a spirit of hard work and perseverance.”

Through this organized activity, we have gained a deeper understanding of our Party’s arduous journey, studied the noble spirit of our revolutionary forebears, and drawn strength to forge ahead from the Party’s glorious history. We have come to appreciate that it is not difficult to memorize the Party membership oath; the real challenge lies in upholding it throughout one’s life, consciously and regularly measuring ourselves against it, and remaining steadfast and unwavering for a lifetime. We have also recognized that only by staying true to our original aspiration can we honor history and pay tribute to our predecessors, win the hearts and minds of the people, and keep pace with the times—only then can we achieve success through diligent effort and press forward without hesitation, always preserving the original aspirations of Communists. Moreover, we have deeply understood the goals and tasks set forth at the 19th National Congress of the CPC, firmly kept in mind the fundamental purpose of the Party, strengthened our ideals and convictions, maintained an excellent work style, and earnestly shouldered the missions and tasks of the new era entrusted to us by the Party and the people.
