党的十六届五中全会指出,“我国正处于改革的攻坚阶段,必须以更大的决心加快推进改革,使关系经济社会发展全局的重大体制改革取得突破性进展”。以转变政府职能为核心的行政管理体制改革关系到我国改革开放和社会主义现代化建设大局,必须抓住当前的有利时机,采取扎实有效的措施,积极稳妥地向前推进。 The Fifth Plenary Session of the 16th CPC Central Committee pointed out: “As China is in a crucial stage of reform, we must make greater resolution to speed up the reform and make a breakthrough in major structural reforms that have an overall bearing on the overall economic and social development.” The reform of the administrative system centered on the transformation of government functions has an important bearing on the current favorable opportunity and on solid and effective measures to promote the reform and opening up as well as the overall situation of socialist modernization in an active and steady manner.
