Deng Xiaoping's Southern Tour Talks

Between January 18 and February 21, 1992, the 88-year-old Deng Xiaoping conducted a tour of south China, visiting Wuchang, Shenzhen, Zhuhai and Shanghai and gave a series of talks, collectively known as the "Southern Tour Talks." He expressed his deepest hopes for the cause of the Party and the people, a strong sense of political and strategic issues, and an acute awareness of potential dangers.

On March 26, Shenzhen Special Zone Daily published a full report on Deng's visit to the city, and listed the main points of his comments during the tour. Deng's talks reiterated the need to firmly adhere to the Party's guideline of "one central task and two basic points" and the socialist path with distinctive Chinese features, to seize the opportunity of the moment to accelerate reform and opening up, and to concentrate on economic development. He also elaborated on what socialism is and the essence of socialism.

Targeting the misgivings existing among the people, Deng reviewed the experience and lessons from China's reform and opening up over the previous 14 years, and emphasized the importance of deeper reform and faster development. He also offered new ideas and new approaches regarding major theoretical and practical issues, and answered a number of questions that had troubled officials and the general public for quite some time. His talks were deemed of political value to the whole Party and the entire nation.

These talks represented the maturing of Deng Xiaoping Theory, and inspired the second round of China's reform and opening up. They provided timely answers to the questions of "what is socialism and how to build socialism." They effectively freed people's minds, and reaffirmed their faith in socialism. Hailed as a milestone in building Chinese socialism, they boosted China's economic reform and social progress in the 1990s, and their influence has extended into the 21st century.
