In the letter, Xi extended sincere greetings to officials and staff of the administration, as well as foreign experts and friends supporting China's international communication cause.
Highlighting the administration's important role in comprehensively introducing the country's development to the world and actively facilitating international exchanges in the past 70 years, Xi said the agency has made great contributions to telling China's stories and conveying its voices.
Xi called on the administration to build itself into a world-class international communication institution with strong comprehensive strength to better introduce China in the new era and present a true, multi-dimensional and panoramic view of China to the world.
Xi's letter was read out at a symposium held in Beijing Wednesday by Huang Kunming, a member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and head of the Publicity Department of the CPC Central Committee.
Huang asked the administration to make new achievements in introducing China to the world, promoting exchanges and mutual learning, and facilitating people-to-people connectivity.
