The Communist Party of China's (CPC) Eight-Point Decision on Improving Party and Government Conduct, unveiled on December 4, 2012, has evolved from a modest reform into a significant governance revolution over the past decade. Led by General Secretary and President Xi Jinping, this initiative has profoundly reshaped official conduct and inspired transformations across Chinese society, economy, culture, and governance.

• Over 225,000 violations of the Eight-Point Decision were investigated in 2024 alone.
• The decision emphasizes frugality, simpler meetings, and genuine grassroots research to reconnect the leadership with ordinary citizens.
• This reform has dismantled unhealthy ties between officials and business interests, fostering a fairer economic environment and strengthening Chinese modernisation.
