Earlier this month, Beijing hosted a huge crowd of Chinese officials. They were there for the “Two Sessions” gathering, which included some 3,000 delegates of the National People’s Congress (NPC), the country’s nominal legislature, and an additional 2,000 members of the Chinese People’s Political Consultive Conference (CPPCC), and advisory body.
