China's Communist Party will open a critical meeting on October 15, state media said on Tuesday, announcing a congress at which president and party chief Hu Jintao is expected to consolidate power with a leadership reshuffle.
The biggest political event in five years, the party congress is expected to set the booming country's priorities for the coming years and may see Hu tap an heir-apparent from the ranks of a younger generation of leaders.
