'An overall view is required' in Mao judgment

Top Party leaders go to mausoleum for commemoration

A historical and overall view should be taken while passing judgment on Chairman Mao Zedong,President Xi Jinping said on Thursday.

It has been the Chinese people's greatest dream for centuries to achieve national rejuvenation,and Mao led the people to achieve national independence and defeat the invadersXi said at asymposium in Beijing to commemorate the 120th anniversary of Mao's birth.

Mao died on Sept 9, 1976.

Mao made serious mistakes during the "cultural revolution" (1966-76), and the mistakes were notonly because of personal reasonsbut also due to complex international and domestic factors,which should be judged from an overall and historical perspectiveXi said.

Building socialism in China was an unprecedented endeavor in Mao's eraand the Chineseleaders thenwith no examples to followhad to blaze trails all on their ownXi said.

Leaders should neither be worshipped like godsnor be denied completely due to theirmistakesand the mistakes should become a valuable historical lesson for the PartyXistressed.

Calling Mao "a great patriot and national hero", Xi said, "Mao changed the face of the nation andled the Chinese people to a new destiny".

Xi mentioned in his speech that paramount leader Deng Xiaoping used to say that the banner ofMao Zedong Thought could not be cast awayor the Party's glorious history will be challenged.

Before the symposiumthe seven members of the Party's top-ruling body visited Mao'smausoleum in Tian'anmen Squarebowing three times in front of Mao's seated statue and payinga visit to the body of Mao.

In an article published on MondayPeople's Daily said that Mao Zedong Thought serves as alighthouse that directs the people toward the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

The article was authored by Leng Ronghead of the CPC Central Committee's Party LiteratureResearch Office.

To commemorate Mao's birthdaya 50-episode TV series started simultaneously on ChinaCentral Television and Hunan Satellite TV on Wednesday evening.

Huang Lia Beijing native who visited Mao's mausoleum on Thursdaysaid that Mao rid China ofthe tag of "sick man of East Asiaand "laid a very good industrial foundation for the economytoday".

Gao Xiangsecretary-general of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciencessaid that Mao'shistorical contributions should not be denied because of his mistakes.

Ai Silinpresident of Tsinghua University's School of Marxismsaid that commemorating Mao'sbirthday is important for the Party's ongoing "mass-linecampaign since Mao made manycomments and gave instructions on how to get close to the people.

Mao had said that getting close to the people and serving the people is what made theCommunist Party of China different from other partiesand the principle remains unchangedtodayhe said.

In Junethe CPC Central Committee launched the yearlong "mass-linecampaign to bridgegaps between government officials and the publicduring which the authorities pledged to cleanup undesirable work styles such as formalismbureaucracyhedonism and extravagance.

The Party's top anti-graft agency said in November that it had cut conference expenditure for thefirst eight months of this year by 84 percent and reception expenses by half amid efforts toimprove work style and fight corruption.

It said in a circular released on Monday that government officials must shun high-end clubs wherethey might enjoy themselves with dining and other entertainmentwith some even engaging inpower-for-money or power-for-sex deals.
