The Central Party School's 'Study Times' on May 16 published a signed article captioned
"Young Cadres "Ten to Ten Do Not Compare". It was signed by Xu Wenxiu, the pseudonym
of the CCP CC Organization Department. The article said, "those who must be compared ,
should be compared, and can be compared, compare the initiative, initiative and consciousness,
and compare the motivation to do business". It listed ten points for the younger cadres: (i) The
first is to struggle rather than enjoyment. (ii) The second is to give, not to ask. (iii) The third is
to compare skill, not luck. (iv) The fourth is to be more pragmatic, not project a false goal. (v)
The fifth is more perseverance than determination. (vi) Sixth, it is better to be more honest than
speculation. (vii) Seven, more simple is better than luxurious. (viii) Eighth, the promotion of
ideas is better than the promotion of jobs. (ix) The ninth, to go farther it is better to run steadily,
than to fly high and to run fast. (x) Ten it is better to rise on the back of the effort, not the family
background.
Separately the China Education Daily (May 19) published an article recalling that "General
Secretary Xi Jinping delivered an important speech at the opening ceremony of the training
course for young and middle-aged cadres at the Central Party School (National School of
Administration) on March 1, pointing out that young cadres need to master many skills in order
to be competent in leadership. He emphasized that the most fundamental ability is theoretical
literacy. The classic works of Marxism are the source of living water for the study and study
of Marxism."
