The Communist Party of China made a major policy decision on reform and opening-up at the Third Plenum of its 11 CPC Central Committee held in late 1978 and opened a new historical period for China's reform and opening-up. In the last three decades, earth-shaking changes have taken place in China, and many foreign friends have also personally witnessed this epoch through their direct or indirect contact or engagement with the country.

To this end, People's Daily Online sponsors the solicitation of articles .
