Whether a country's system for governance is effective depends on its practices, with the people having the strongest voice in making the judgment.

BEIJING, March 3 (Xinhua) -- The key to evaluating a country's system usually lies in whether it is in line with the national conditions, supported by the people and can improve people's livelihoods.

From poverty alleviation to pandemic response, a country with a population of 1.4 billion has made remarkable achievements by relying on the advantages of its workable and effective system for governance.

After the outbreak of COVID-19, China built two temporary hospitals in Wuhan, a hard-hit city in central China's Hubei Province, in only about two weeks. Some 3,000 new hospital beds were added every day in the megacity. More than 40,000 medical workers from 19 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities rushed to Hubei to fight the virus on the frontlines.
