The CPPCC National Committee also made a powerful rallying call "to all the sons and daughters of the Chinese nation at home and abroad to work together in advancing national rejuvenation", Wang said, adding that it also carried forward the fighting spirit by issuing a stern statement in response to then United States House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's provocative visit to Taiwan.

"We should carry out consultations and deliberations with the aim of serving the overall work of the CPC and the country," he said.

"We should work earnestly to build consensus and strengthen unity," Wang added.

Over the past five years, a total of 29,323 proposals were submitted, and 23,818 of them were accepted and filed, said Shao Hong, vice-chairman of the 13th CPPCC National Committee, while giving a work report on the proposals.

As of the end of February, 99.8 percent of the filed proposals had been handled or replied to.

"The CPPCC National Committee has conducted in-depth consultations with relevant parties, and many of the proposals have been reflected on in relevant planning policies and measures, giving full play to the advantages and role of the CPPCC in promoting people's democracy and economic and social development in the whole process of development," Shao said.
