China's Xi calls on Communist Party to better anticipate risks, respond to challenges
President Xi Jinping has urged the Chinese Communist Party to strengthen its ability to anticipate risks and respond to challenges. He warned of a new period of global turbulence while addressing ruling party members as the CCP marked its 105th founding anniversary. The ceremony held at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing focused on the party's future as much as its past. China is now looking ahead to next year's party congress, when a new leadership line-up is expected to be unveiled. Olivia Siong reports from Beijing.
