Zhong Jing (L), a doctor of Longhe Village clinic, examines a patient in Zhenfeng County, southwest China's Guizhou Province, Oct. 11, 2017. Zhong has been elected as a delegate among 2,287 delegates to attend this year's congress to be held in Beijing starting Oct. 18. Attendees will include high-ranking government officials, Party leaders, and military officers as well as grassroots Party members from "frontline production and manufacturing" such as workers, farmers, technicians, nurses and teachers. A total of 771 grassroots delegates have been selected from various social sectors, accounting for 33.7 percent of the total, up by 3.2 percentage points from five years ago. The voices of grassroots delegates, especially those who have made achievements in reforms, scientific innovation and poverty alleviation, are expected to gather wisdom and increase the strength of China's overall reform across all social sectors.
