Kerry Brown, Director of China Studies Center and Professor of Chinese Politics, University of Sydney
I wish China well as it continues its journey towards a more prosperous, developed economic model. For the last nine and a half decades, the Communist Party of China has been close to, or central, to the project of modernity in China, and the impact, influence and understanding of this are crucial for the outside world.

Congratulations to the Communist Party of China on its 95th Anniversary. The progress that China has made under the Party's leadership has been amazing. Never in history have so many people been brought out of poverty in such a short time. China is united, and the Chinese people are creating an economy and culture that have made and continue to make remarkable progress in pursuing the "Chinese dream."

With tremendous pleasure, I wish to extend my heart-felt best wishes to my beloved China on the precious occasion of the 95th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China. May you continue your excellent efforts in bringing prosperity and good fortune to the distinguished Chinese people. On July 1st, I shall raise my glass to share with my fellow Chinese in toasting this wonderful event.

Heiko Khoo, a columnist, video producer, historian and a well-known public speaker in London
We all owe a debt to the revolutionaries who founded the Communist Party of China 95 years ago. The Party defeated the fascist invaders from Japan because the honesty and integrity of its members won the support of the masses. In 1949, it created a new nation and a new society. From the 1980s onwards China experienced the most extraordinary development of productive forces in world history. Fraternal greetings to Chinese comrades and to the people of China on this historic anniversary.

Sumantra Maitra, foreign affairs journalist and research scholar on foreign policy and neo-realism based in London
As a political scientist, I look forward with great interest to seeing what direction China takes under the leadership of the CPC, as it celebrates its 95th anniversary. As I have written often, there is hope and desire in policy circles here in the West, both in Europe and the Americas, that in the future we might see a G2 power sharing, which is how the CPC describes win-win cooperation. There are glimpses of that already in the Asia-Pacific region. Britain, where I live now, is also hopeful about strong economic ties with China in the near future. I am fairly certain it is going to be very positive and exciting.

I would like to congratulate the Communist Party of China on its 95th anniversary. The Party deserves a lot of credit and appreciation for its untiring efforts to develop and transform China into a modern country. The centralized fast-track development story of China will go a long way in history as a model of development that has helped millions of people, directly and indirectly, to have a better life.

James DeShaw Rae, Associate Professor in the Dept. of Government at California State University
The 95th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China allows us to commemorate the blood, sweat, sacrifice and perseverance of those committed revolutionaries who against all odds fought to create a "New China." Perhaps even more remarkably, the Party has adapted to changes in the modern world while providing independence, peace, prosperity and development for the world's most populous country.

John Ross, Senior Fellow of Chongyang Institute for Financial Studies, Renmin University of China
China has raised 725 million people out of internationally defined poverty with the leadership of the Communist Party of China - the rest of the world managed only 152 million. This achievement is the greatest contribution to real human rights and human well-being of any country in the world.
