 BEIJING (AP) - President Hu Jintao called on officials to follow the communist leadership and pledged to move ahead with reforms Tuesday, closing out the annual session of China's legislature that was overshadowed by deadly anti-government protests in Tibet.
The Communist Party-controlled National People's Congress appointed a new Cabinet heavy on technocrats and approved a restructuring of ministries and agencies.
Officials must "adhere to the central leadership of the party, make people masters of the country and administer the country by law," Hu told the 3,000 deputies gathered in Beijing's Great Hall of the People for the close of the two-week session. "We should not be afraid of changes and reform."
