Chinese Premier Li Keqiang on Friday encouraged political advisors to pool wisdom and suggestions while the country maps a new five-year plan.

Li made the remarks at the opening of the 13th Session of the 12th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), the country's top political advisory body.

Advisors convened to study directions from the fifth plenary session of the 18th Communist Party of China Central Committee, which approved proposals on the 13th five-year plan for national economic and social development from 2016 to 2020.

The proposals highlighted innovation, coordination, green development, opening-up and sharing.

The 13th five-year plan period will be crucial for China to build a moderately prosperous society in all aspects and the first two years will be especially important for restructuring and transformation, Li noted.

Innovation can boost development and restructuring reforms, coordination can help achieve balanced development and narrow rural-urban gaps, green development can safeguard sustained development, opening-up can explore growth space for China to better integrate with the world, and sharing can reflect equality in development, he said.

Targets in the 12th five-year plan can be achieved completely, Li said, adding that China's comprehensive national strength has improved, with its economy totalling 10 trillion U.S. dollars and per capita GDP hitting the average of countries with medium and high incomes.

Breakthroughs were made in restructuring, with the urban population overtaking the rural population and the service sector becoming the largest industry, he said.

Social welfare has made progress and the economy has remained in a reasonable range this year despite complex situations at home and abroad, Li said.

He expressed belief that the achievements will lay a solid foundation for a good start of the 13th five-year plan.

CPPCC National Committee Chairman Yu Zhengsheng also urged the political advisors to make contribution to the compiling of the blueprint.
