　　Li, a member of the Standing¹ Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, made the remarks during his five-day inspection² tour,?which ?ended on Tuesday, to Jiangxi province.

　　Li visited a cemetery³ of revolutionary martyrs⁴ and the former residence of late Chinese leader Mao Zedong as well as other red tourism attractions in the province's cities of Jinggangshan and Nanchang, and called on the local government departments and residents to further promote red tourism.

　　Jinggangshan, where Mao established a rural base for the Chinese revolution in 1927, is regarded as the cradle of the Chinese Communist revolution.

　　The "Jinggangshan spirit" is a precious cultural treasure for the Party and the people, and continued to contribute to the building of the socialist⁵ core value system in China, Li said.

　　Efforts should be made to improve the awareness⁶ of China's revolutionary history among the country's officials and citizens, especially the youngsters, he said.

　　During his visit to local enterprises, Li called on entrepreneurs and workers to promote independent innovation and increase the investment in the scientific and technological⁷ research and development.

　　Also in his trip, Li visited some rural villages and urban communities in the province and called for measures to accelerate the construction of cultural infrastructure⁸ and promote a balanced development in the cultural sector⁹ between the rural and urban areas.

　　In the city of Jingdezhen, dubbed¹⁰ the capital of ceramics¹¹ in China, Li noted¹² the importance to combine innovation and preservation¹³ of the country's traditional handicraft industry.

　　The traditional handicraft production should take a more market-oriented approach to promote China's excellent traditional culture around the world, he said.

　　He also called for efforts to carry forward the reform in the country's cultural industry.
