China to Enshrine Xi Thought In State Constitution
President Xi Jinping’s political thought will be officially incorporated into the state constitution in what will be the country’s first constitutional amendment since 2004. Xi’s ideology was formerly added to the party constitution at the 19th Party Congress last October, during which the party unanimously passed an amendment to enshrine “Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era” as one of its guiding principles.January 20, 2018
