Jan 14, 2019
Peking University, Jan. 8, 2019: The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) plans to honor 100 outstanding individuals who have made great contributions to China’s reform and opening-up. Three PKU teachers, Wang Xuan, Li Yining, and Justin Yifu Lin, were on the list, along with eight PKU alumni, Yu Min, Wang Jiafu, Robin Li  Yanhong, Zou Bihua, Hu Fuming, Zhong Nanshan, Tu Youyou and Fan Jinshi.



Hu Fuming (1935 - ) is a professor at Nanjing University and was the former vice chair of Jiangsu Provincial Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference. As the main draftsman, he published the important political article “Practice Is the Sole Criterion for Testing Truth” in Enlightenment Daily on May 11, 1978. With the support from Deng Xiaoping, this article was widespread across the whole country and caused heated discussions over the criterion of truth, which profoundly influenced the historical track of China at the end of 20th century.
