For the people-centered Communist Party of China, improving the people's quality of life is a long-term task, because the people's well-being is prioritized above everything else.

To eradicate absolute poverty in China as a whole, the Party has made major strides forward in establishing systems that guarantee the people's well-being. These include systems for universal healthcare, universal education and social security, and the abolition of China's 2,600-year-old agricultural tax.
