Zhou Yongkang, a senior leader of the Communist Party of China (CPC), has urged party organs, government departments and law enforcement departments to make more efforts in solving social conflicts, promoting innovative social management and law enforcement in a just and clean-fingered style.

Zhou, a Standing Committee member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, made the remarks during a meeting Wednesday.

"Currently the situation of our country's overall social stability is good, and our ability and confidence to ensure stability are increasing as the country's comprehensive national strength is on the rise," he said.

"However, we should be alert that there are still many conflicts and problems that may affect social stability," he added.

In addition, he stressed the security work for the Spring Festival and the upcoming annual sessions of the National People's Congress (NPC), the top legislature, and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), the top advisory body, which are scheduled to open in early March.
