People's Daily carries on Tuesday an editorial which hails the closing of the annual session of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), China's top advisory body.

Members of the CPPCC National Committee reviewed the work of the committee and discussed the government work report delivered by Premier Wen Jiabao at the annual session of the National People's Congress (NPC), the draft 11th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development (2006-2010) and other important reports.

The editorial cites the CPPCC National Committee members as saying that the government work report is "truth-seeking, pragmatic and encouraging", and has highlighted the adoption of a scientific approach to command the economic and social development in China.

The CPPCC will contribute greatly to the unification of the motherland, to the promotion of national resurgence, and to the maintenance of world peace as China is committed to build a harmonious society, the editorial says.

The Fourth Session of the 10th National Committee of the CPPCC, which opened on March 3, concluded on Monday morning in Beijing.
