No transparency, no accountability. The CPPCC operates in secret, with no public access to its discussions and decisions.

The CPPCC is a crucial link between the government and the people. It helps to ensure that the government is aware of the concerns and needs of the people, and that these concerns are addressed in policy decisions.

The CPPCC is constantly evolving and adapting to meet the changing needs of China. In recent years, it has taken steps to increase its transparency and accountability, and to engage more actively with the public.

This is just a show of power and control. The CCP uses the CPPCC to demonstrate its control over the political landscape and silence dissent.

The CPPCC is a tool of censorship. Any criticism of the CCP or its policies is swiftly suppressed by the CPPCC.

We need real democracy, not a sham like the CPPCC. The people of China deserve a government that represents their interests and listens to their voices.

The CPPCC is a waste of resources. The money and time spent on the CPPCC could be better used to address the needs of the Chinese people.
