Full Text of Hu Jintao's speech at CPC anniversary gathering
胡锦涛在庆祝中国共产党成立90周年大会上的讲话

The Communist Party of China (CPC) holds a grand gathering on July 1, 2011 at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing to celebrate the Party's 90th anniversary. [Xinhua]

To make Party building more scientific under the new historical conditions, we must place power, Party affairs, and Party members under institutional safeguards, improve democratic centralism, and promote Party building in an institutionalized and standardized way and through due process.	在新的历史条件下提高党的建设科学化水平，必须坚持用制度管权管事管人，健全民主集中制，不断推进党的建设制度化、规范化、程序化。
The growth of the Party over the past 90 years shows that Party institutions are of fundamental importance in building and running a party with several dozen million members, as such institutions bear closely on the Party's long-term and overall performance and its stable growth. Institutional building must be fully integrated with our efforts to strengthen the Party ideologically and organizationally, improve its style of work, combat corruption and ensure the integrity of the Party. In improving Party institutions, we must set out clear priorities, take a holistic approach, carry on fine traditions while innovating boldly. Our goal is to establish a system of Party institutions which are well coordinated in terms of scope, comprehensive and effective and are governed by rigorous procedures.	９０年来党的发展历程告诉我们，建设好、管理好一个有几千万党员的大党，制度更带有根本性、全局性、稳定性、长期性。必须始终把制度建设贯穿党的思想建设、组织建设、作风建设和反腐倡廉建设之中，坚持突出重点、整体推进，继承传统、大胆创新，构建内容协调、程序严密、配套完备、有效管用的制度体系。
In enhancing the building of Party institutions, we should follow the Party Constitution, exercise democratic centralism, adhere to and improve the Party's leadership system, reform and improve its leadership and governance. We should develop intra-Party democracy, promote transparency in Party affairs in an active yet prudent manner, ensure the principal status and democratic rights of Party members, improve the system of Party congresses and the intra-Party electoral system, and improve the mechanism for democratic decision making in the Party. We must safeguard the solidarity and unity of the Party, enhance its creativity and fight arbitrary behavior by individuals and weakness and laxity, which violate the principle of democratic centralism. All the comrades in the Party should bear in mind that all people are equal before the law, that no one has the privilege to overstep institutions and that no exception should be made in enforcing institutional safeguards. We should familiarize ourselves with, strictly apply and conscientiously safeguard Party institutions.	推进党的制度建设，要坚持以党章为根本、以民主集中制为核心，坚持和完善党的领导制度，改革和完善党的领导方式和执政方式，发展党内民主，积极稳妥推进党务公开，保障党员主体地位和民主权利，完善党代表大会制度和党内选举制度，完善党内民主决策机制，保障党的团结统一，增强党的创造活力，坚决克服违反民主集中制原则的个人独断专行和软弱涣散现象。全党同志都要牢固树立法律面前人人平等、制度面前没有特权、制度约束没有例外的观念，认真学习制度，严格执行制度，自觉维护制度。
In short, if all the comrades in the Party care about the Party's future, fulfill their responsibility for its growth, and promote Party building with greater vigor, our Party will better keep up with the trend of history, stand firm in the forefront of the times and advance social progress.	总之，只要全党同志常怀忧党之心、恪尽兴党之责，以更加奋发有为的精神状态推进党的建设，我们党就一定能够更好把握历史大势、勇立时代潮头、引领社会进步。
Comrades and Friends,	同志们、朋友们！
Since the very day of its founding, the CPC has heroically shouldered the historic mission of uniting with and leading the people in achieving the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. In pursuing this great cause, we must unswervingly follow the basic line of the Party, continue to free up our minds, forge ahead with reform and opening up, promote scientific development, enhance social harmony, and make overall progress in the great cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics from the new historical starting point.	中国共产党自诞生之日起就勇敢担当起团结带领人民实现中华民族伟大复兴的历史使命。继续推动中华民族伟大复兴进程，必须始终坚持党的基本路线不动摇，继续解放思想，坚持改革开放，推动科学发展，促进社会和谐，在新的历史起点上把中国特色社会主义伟大事业全面推向前进。
