Our Daily Hails Opening of Chinese Young Pioneers' Congress

Our Daily carries an editorial Thursday hailing the opening of the Fourth National Congress of the Chinese Young Pioneers (CYP).

The editorial is entitled " Star and Torch Passed From Generation to Generation -- Congratulations to the Inauguration of the Fourth National Congress of the Chinese Young Pioneers".

While congratulating all CYP members and Chinese children on the opening of the congress on the June 1 International Children's Day, the editorial shows respect for the counselors of the CYP and specialists working on children's affairs.

The Communist Party of China and the Chinese government have always paid great attention to the healthy growth of the juveniles and the development of the CYP, it says.

The CYP has made positive contributions to fostering generations of qualified socialist builders and successors, the editorial notes.

Since the convening of its third national congress five years ago, the CYP has launched a series of activities to promote the healthy growth of Chinese children.

The glorious mission of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation will be placed squarely on the shoulders of the children.

The editorial urges to completely recognize the importance of the children's education and fostering the next generation.

It also calls for an all-out implementation of relevant laws to protect the legal rights of children and crackdown on all kinds of illegal activities harmful to the physical and spiritual health of children.
