Voices from the two sessions

I paid great attention to reading the draft of general provisions for the civil code; it's not just a job for law professors, but for everyone. The draft is the first step in making our civil code, as well as a key way of improving the rule of law, which has been promoted by the central leadership in recent years.

The draft of the general provisions will provide a foundation to push forward the civil code. The draft indicates the tone of the code. I look forward to it and would like to discuss it with other deputies. What's more, I hope to see the draft play a role in protecting civil rights if it is passed and ratified.
