China has been transformed by Deng Xiaoping's exhortation that "to get rich is glorious," but Hu wants to narrow the gap between rich and poor so every Chinese can share in the wealth of economic growth.

The country has also hosted high-profile visitors like Russian President Vladimir Putin, Chinese President Hu Jintao and Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva this year.
