BEIJING, Dec. 7 -- A leader of a non-communist political party on Wednesday called for its members to continue to improve their capabilities and carry out social services more efficiently.

Yan Junqi, chairwoman of the China Association for Promoting Democracy (CAPD) Central Committee, made the remarks at the fifth plenary session of the 13th CAPD Central Committee, which opened Wednesday.

Hailing the party's work on poverty alleviation and promoting the reunification of the motherland, Yan said the party should make greater contribution to helping realize the country's "two centenary goals."

The two centenary goals refer to: the building of an all-round moderately prosperous society by the Communist Party of China's (CPC's) centenary in 2021, and creating a prosperous, strong, democratic, culturally advanced and harmonious country by the centenary of the People's Republic of China in 2049.

The CAPD is one of the country's eight non-communist parties and will hold its 12th national congress next year.

Founded in 1945, the CAPD membership mainly consists of intellectuals working in the fields of culture, education, publishing and science.

Under China's multi-party cooperation system, non-communist parties participate in state affairs under the leadership of the CPC.

The CPC and non-communist parties work together and supervise one another.
