We begin the program in the nation's capital, where China's top annual economic meeting has opened this morning. National and provincial leaders are attending the meeting.

The Politbureau of the CPC Central Committee Meeting was held on the 8th of this month, setting the tone for next year's economic development. More detailed plans are expected to be made at this three-day conference. Predictions on economic growth, supply-side structural reforms, and high-quality development, will be ironed out. Other hot issues are expected to be discussed, including promoting foreign direct investment, financial risk controls, tax and fee reforms, and the rental housing system.
