Dear President Xi Jinping,
Congratulations on your third term as general-secretary of the Chinese Communist Party. It has been a while since I last wrote to you and I hope this letter finds your excellency well.

It must not have been easy for you to achieve such a powerful concentration of power by effectively abolishing the long-established system of collective leadership and the age-limit requirements for holding office in your party.
