Today the theme we will introduced is the combination of material civilization and spiritual civilization.
China has attaxhed great importance to spiritual civilization since ancient times. As an ancient Chinese saying goes, “Only when the granary is full with people learn etiquette; only when people are well-fed and clothed will they know honor and shame.”

In the course of promoting modernization, we not only emphasize the liberation and development of social productive forces and the promotion of sustained and rapid economic growth, but also believe that spiritual civilization is an integral part of socialism with Chinese characteristics.
The development of a single material civilization apart from the progress of spiritual civilization is not true socialist modernization and does not meet the requirements of all-round social progress. President Xi stressed that when high-rise buildings are standing in many places on the land of our country, the building of the Chinese national spirit should also stand firm.
