BEIJING, March 10 (Xinhua) -- Education Minister Yuan Guiren said Thursday that the Marxist value and ideology would remain in China's education.
"The Communist Party of China combined the Marxist theory with practical situation in the country, establishing it as a guiding thought," Yuan said at a press conference on the sidelines of the national legislature annual session.
The minister asked in an article last year to better explain China's political theories and make those theories more accessible to students.
"The value we refer to is the one that is advocated by the Marxist ideology and combines with China's traditional value," Yuan said at the press conference.
