Xiao Yang, former president of the Supreme People's Court of China, said
the court should better implement principles of the Scientific Outlook of
Development to improve the country's judicial work.
Xiao was visited by his
successor Wang Shengjun yesterday and was asked to advise on the court's work to
implement the Scientific Outlook of Development, the guiding principles for the
country's economic and social development, the court's official website
chinacourt.org reported today.
Wang Shengjun was elected president of the
Supreme People's Court on March this year to replace Xiao.
During the visit,
Wang briefed on how the court had carried out the campaign among its staffs to
study the Scientific Outlook of Development.
Xiao said the campaign should
help the court to improve its work in order to solve problems that had caused
concerns among the public, according to the report.
The Scientific Outlook on
Development represents important guiding principles for China's economic and
social development. It was initiated by the Communist Party of China in 2003 and
written into the Party's constitution during the 17th National Congress of the
Party in 2007.
The principles emphasize on a people-first approach, while
requiring comprehensive and sustainable development with emphasis both on speed
and quality.
