Focus on the Two Sessions | Seven representatives and members of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference from Tongfang actively fulfill their duties and offer insightful suggestions, demonstrating their sense of responsibility and commitment!
Preface
In the report to the 20th National Congress, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized the importance of comprehensively governing the country according to law and set forth the goal of advancing the building of a rule-of-law China. Achieving this goal requires the integrated development of a country under the rule of law, a government governed by the rule of law, and a society governed by the rule of law.
As an important force in building a society governed by the rule of law, lawyers play an indispensable role in economic development and social equity and justice. By providing legal services, they safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of their clients and promote fairness and justice in society.
Recently, representatives of Tongfang Law Firm serving as deputies to the People’s Congress and members of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference have actively participated in meetings of the provincial, municipal, and district-level People’s Congresses and CPPCCs. At these meetings, acting in their capacities as deputies to the People’s Congress and members of the CPPCC, Tongfang lawyers have diligently fulfilled their duties, offering insightful advice and practical suggestions for the benefit of the people, the rule of law, and socio-economic development. They have shown deep concern for issues affecting people’s livelihoods and put forward numerous wise recommendations and pragmatic strategies, demonstrating their professional competence and special sense of responsibility in participating in state governance and policy-making.
Through their efforts, we have come to recognize the crucial role lawyers play in building a society governed by the rule of law. They are not only guardians of the law but also defenders of the people’s rights and interests. With their professional expertise and practical experience, they are making significant contributions to the construction of a China governed by the rule of law.
