About 2,900 journalists from home and overseas had registered to
cover the upcoming annual sessions of the National People's
Congress (NPC) and the Chinese People's Political Consultative
Conference (CPPCC) by Monday, according to the meetings' press
center.
The number of journalists is almost same as that for last year's
sessions in which the new generation of leadership was elected and
administrative reform was deepened.
Constitutional amendment is widely regarded as the most
important agenda of the Second Session of the 10th National
People's Congress (NPC).
Other hot issues on the agenda of both sessions include fighting
corruption, increasing farmers' income, helping laid-off workers
find jobs, improving social security, protecting ecological
environment as well as coping with land requisition.
