We start with a look at China's upcoming two sessions. The Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference outlined government plans to promote economic growth during a news conference Friday afternoon at the Great Hall of the People. That came as China's economy transitions from rapid growth to high-quality development.
Officials said that top priorities of the government work will include developing the real economy and deepening supply-side reforms. The CPPCC's first session will kick off on Saturday. The National People's Congress will hold its first session on Monday. The political gatherings are collectively known as the Two Sessions.
