Chinese President Xi Jinping urged to enhance cybersecurity management and remain open to innovation, in an instruction to the 2019 China Cybersecurity Week on Monday. 

Xi said the country will safeguard the security of personal information and citizens' legal rights and interests in cyberspace.

Efforts should be made to raise people's sense of fulfillment, happiness and security in cyberspace, said Xi, also general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, in an instruction to a week-long national awareness campaign on cybersecurity that opened in the northern Chinese municipality of Tianjin Monday. 

He added that China should seek the integrative development of network security education, technology and industry, and form a benign ecology of talent cultivation, technological innovation and industrial development. 

On the one hand, the country should vigorously cultivate new technologies and applications such as artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, and next-generation communication networks. On the other hand, it should actively use laws, regulations, and standards to guide the application of new technologies, Xi stressed.
