While giving close attention to the adherence to the advanced character of the Party members during the course of election, Party organizations at all levels have given special heed to a wide representation with a relatively rational mix of delegates elected and a composition of all components compliant with requirements set by the Party Central Committee. So there are ensuing hallmarks:
First, a rise in the proportion of Party members in production and work frontlines. Among all the delegates to the congress, 28.4 percent are grass-root CPC members from all walks of life and the ratio of the delegates elected at the grass-root level from the provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions across China and the central enterprise system (in Beijing) exceeded 30 percent, a somewhat bigger increase in the ratio of CPC delegates at grassroots at the time of the 16th National Party Congress.
Second, a fairly balanced distribution with a representation of all sectors. Delegates to 17th CPC National Congress come from all trades and professions in economy, science and technology, national defense, politics and laws, education, media publicity, culture, health work, physical culture and sports fields, involving workers, farmers, servicemen, professionals and government functionaries, and also representatives of Party members in new economic and social organizations.
Third, a marked rise in the ratio of women delegates. Among the elected delegates, there were 445 women, 63 more than at the 16th CPC National Congress, accounting for 20.1 percent, or 0.4 percentage points higher than the ratio of women Party membership nationwide.
Fourth, a rise in the ratio of delegates of ethnical minorities. Among the finally elected delegates, there were 242 people of ethnic groups, 12 people more than at the 16th National Congress, making up 10.9 percent. Of the 55 minority ethnicities, 42 ethnic groups have their own delegates.
Fifth, an increase in the number of delegates of the middle-age people and youths. Among the finally elected delegates, there are 1,561 delegates under age 55, comprising 70.4 percent, 7.2 percent higher than the ratio of those attending the 16th National Congress; 416 delegates are under age 45, or 0.8 percent higher than the proportion of the delegates of the same age group at the 16th National Congress.
Sixth, a higher level of education. Among the delegates, there are 2,068 delegates of at or above the junior education level, making up 93.3 percent of the proportion of delegates, or 1.6 percentage points higher than the ratio of the delegates of the same age group at the previous national congress.
Meanwhile, the election of all delegates has conformed to the set procedures and steps about the election of CPC delegates, noted the leading member of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee. To be specific:
-- They have all been nominated by the grass-root Party organizations and Party members via recommendations and defined as delegate candidates with the agreement of most Party organizations and most CPC members.
-- They have gone through assiduous, conscientious tests by Party organizations, hearings of opinions about them by Party organizations and CPC members in the units they belong to, and hearings of views of Party discipline inspection and supervision organs to which their units are subjected.
-- They have been elected by Party congresses or CPC representatives meetings in their electoral units.
Moreover, the elected delegates who have been promulgated have to be submitted to the 17th Delegate Status Inspection Committee for examination before they are qualified to attend the 17th National Congress. And in accordance with conventional practices, the CPC Central Committee will also define of select some veteran Party members who have quit their leading posts to attend the upcoming Party congress as specially-invited delegates.
