It is vital to understand the important instructions made by Xi, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, and willingly and firmly carry them out, said Wang Huning, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, at a meeting to mark the 60th anniversary of the founding of the China Association for Science and Technology (CAST).

Scientists should have a stronger sense of responsibility and urgency, make progress in cutting-edge research areas, better serve economic and social development, enhance international cooperation, and further build the country's strength in science and technology, Wang said.

He also asked the CAST to better lead and serve scientists.
