A poster was issued on Tuesday to popularize the "socialist concept of honor and disgrace" voiced by Chinese President Hu Jintao on March 4 in discussions with the country's political advisors.

Published by the People's Publishing House, the poster is on sale throughout the country at Xinhua Bookstores.

President Hu pinpointed the importance of developing an "advanced socialist culture" when he was meeting with members of the Tenth National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), China's political advisory body.

The concept, which stresses the value of patriotism, hard work and plain living, belief in science, consciousness of serving the people, solidarity, honesty and credibility, and observation of the law, is a perfect amalgamation of traditional Chinese values and modern virtues.
