BEIJING, Sept. 26 (Xinhua) -- China's senior political advisors will meet next month to give advice on the country's 12th Five-Year Program (2011-2015), said a statement issued Sunday.

The Standing Committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) will hold its 11th session in October, said a statement issued after a meeting of chairman and vice chairpersons of the CPPCC National Committee.

The major agenda of the October session will be collecting proposals from political advisors about the country's next five-year development program, which is being drafted, the statement said.

At the meeting, Jia Qinglin, chairman of the CPPCC National Committee, urged political advisors to contribute their wisdom and help the country work out a comprehensive development plan.

Made up of high ranking members of the country's eight democratic parties, all walks of society and ethnic groups, the CPPCC should work together to provide quality proposals, Jia said.

The program will be discussed at the fifth plenary session of the 17th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC), scheduled to be held in Beijing in October.

The coming five years will be a key period to build a moderate prosperous society in all respects and a period to tackle thorny problems in deepening reform and opening-up and accelerate the economic transformation, said a CPC Central Committee statement in July.
