The 12th Shanghai Congress of the Communist Party of China concluded yesterday with a resolution on guidelines for Party organizations -- from grassroots to the city level -- over the next five years.

The CPC Shanghai Congress takes place once every five years to summarize work over the previous five years and set goals and visions for the future. A total of 804 Party member representatives selected from citywide and some invited deputies were present at the closing ceremony.

They cast their votes to elect 88 members and 16 alternate members of the 12th CPC Shanghai Committee, 53 members of the 12th Shanghai Commission for Discipline Inspection and deputies to attend the 20th National Congress of the CPC later in Beijing.
