A senior Communist Party of China (CPC) official called on Party members to serve the public better still in public health, scientific researches and cultural work.
He Guoqiang, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and head of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee, made the comments when he reviewed work in east China's Shandong Province Sunday and Monday.
CPC members in hospitals must safeguard the health interests of the public by helping them afford doctors and by improving doctors' medical ethics, he said.
Party members in research institutes should try their utmost to carry out scientific innovation and popularize scientific knowledge, so that their achievements can benefit social and economic development, he added.
To satisfy the soaring spiritual demand of the general public, he especially urged those working in cultural sectors to be the torch-bearers for advanced culture and to resist vulgar culture.
