Beijing: Chinese President Xi Jinping, who is widely considered as President for life, is beginning to empower the major organs of the ruling Communist Party, the first in the rule of over 12 years. Xi’s move speculated that he could launch a groundwork for a systematic strength transition or withdraw his role in preparation for a potential retirement.The speculation about XI’s power infection was recently reported after the state-run Xinhua news agency that in its meeting on June 30, the powerful 24-member political bureau of the ruling Communist Party of China reviewed a set of new rules on the party’s institutions.The meeting chaired by the XI itself insisted that the rules CPC will further standardize the decisions of the Central Committee, intentional and establishing coordination institutes, the responsibilities and operations. Such institutions should use more effective leadership and coordination on major functions and focus on planning, discussing and maintaining major functions, the Xinhua report states.While in recent months, foreign Chinese dissatisfied community was with speculation of a power struggle within secret and tightly controlled CPC, a Chinese political analyst, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said that these party bodies could indicate the retirement of the rules sheery.Hong Kong -based South China Morning Post on Sunday quoted the analyst as saying on Sunday, “Rules to regulate bodies can be established as it is an important time for power infection.” However, other experts said that Xi, the founder of CPC, is considered as the most powerful leader after Zedong, can hand over some powers to focus on big issues.Analysts say their plan to remain in power or remain in power was expected to be held before the next five -year Congress or in 2027, by which their third term would end.Victor Shih, a finance expert at Chinese elite politics and finance California San Diego, said, “It seems that XI can pay less attention to day-to-day details, which requires a policing mechanism to ensure that his policy priorities are still being done by lower level officials.” Xi also left the BRICS summit held at Rio de Janeiro from Sunday. This is the first time he became President that he would remember the peak of emerging economies. The power to hand over the XI’s power is to disrupt China’s export of $ 440 billion into the US amidst US President Trump’s tariff war, besides the major headwinds facing the Chinese economy, with a continuous recession due to the growth, and the collapse of the housing market, the mainstay of economic development.Since he took power, after becoming the General Secretary of CPC in 2012, Xi rapidly consolidated his strength in major power centers – the party, presidential and powerful army as the chairman of the Central Military Commission. As he made his hold on power structures, completing China’s biggest anti-corruption campaign, in which more than one lakh officials were punished and dozens of top generals were purified, Xi was declared as the “core leader” of the party, a designation that was honored only on the party’s founder Zedong. Later, the major terms of the tenure of the President’s two -year conditions were amended by the legislature, paving the way for an unprecedented third five -year term as the President of the country in the next year. All the predecessors of the XI retired after two five years of terms, while they continued to power with a limit without any tenure, earning the President’s label for life.
