A society without rule of law must be a confused and distorted society, one without order and without trust. Socialist rule of law resolves these issues: fairness and justice in the society as a whole, democracy and governance, stable investment environment and transactions in the market, and society's long term prosperity. Establishing market mechanisms based on rule of law is the only way to maintain society's prosperity in the long run. Socialist rule of law is China's only path to long-term prosperity, and our only option.

Observer: It's the only option?
Li: Yes. Rule of law socialism is the only option. Only through socialist rule of law can we respect human rights, protect human rights, respect citizens' property, guarantee their rights to freedom of speech and expression, ensure social order and equitable distribution.  Only within the framework of rule of law will China be able to maintain lasting, long-term prosperity.
