BEIJING, June 12 (Xinhua) -- China will set up a community governance system led by grassroots Communist Party of China (CPC) organizations by 2020, according to a guideline released by the CPC Central Committee and the State Council Monday.
Local governments will play a guiding role in the community governance system which also feature public participation.
Governance capacity in both urban and rural communities will improve significantly by that time, as public services, management and security will be effectively ensured, the guideline said.
Within another five to ten years, a more mature and comprehensive community governance system will offer strong support for the CPC at a grassroots level, while consolidating local governments, the guideline noted.
Issues such as the basic role of autonomous organizations, the participation of social groups and the functions of communities are also included in the guideline.
