BEIJING, March 11 (Xinhua) -- The General Office of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee has issued a circular stressing efforts to address the practice of "formalities for formalities' sake" and alleviate burdens on primary-level authorities.

Listing a series of measures, the circular aims to inspire officials to be "men of action" and demonstrate a keen sense of responsibility, thus greeting the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China with outstanding achievements.
