On November 11, 2012, People’s Daily published an article on Hu Jintao’s speech supporting the Parity’s continuous tight grip on China. Hu Jintao, the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP’s) top leader, said at the opening of the Party’s 18th National Congress on November 8, 2012, “We must not take the old path that is closed and rigid, nor must we take the evil road of changing flags and banners.”
The People’s Daily article suggested that any reform of the political system could endanger the survival of the CCP.
