BEIJING, April 6 (Xinhua) -- Chinese President Hu Jintao vowed Tuesday to further improve officials' capability to guide development in a scientific way, as an 18-month nationwide study campaign for the Communist Party of China (CPC) drew to a close.
Hu hailed the campaign implementing the Scientific Outlook on Development as "effective" while delivering the keynote speech at a conference that marked the campaign's conclusion.
The study campaign achieved its aim of enhancing CPC members' ideological understanding, solved prominent problems, innovated mechanisms, promoted scientific development, and strengthened grassroots party organizations, Hu said.
"However, there is still a lot to do to apply the campaign's achievements to regular work," he warned.
The just-concluded campaign focused on educating officials above the county-level.
Hu said the CPC will draw on campaign experiences to strengthen officials' education and training in the future and to improve their capabilities in planning and promoting development, providing public service, and maintaining social stability.
"The implementation of the Scientific Outlook on Development hinges on government officials at various levels," he said.
