Today the delegates will elect the 210 members of the party's Central Committee and then elect the 31 CSC members from among those 210 people.

Meanwhile, the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) sent a congratulatory message Ma yesterday, according to a Beijing-based Xinhuanet report.

The message expressed hope that both sides will also oppose Taiwan independence to safeguard peace in the Strait and create a win-win situation for both sides across the Strait.

Chinese President Hu Jintao (胡錦濤), the CCP's secretary-general, also sent a message to Lien to congratulate him for serving as the KMT's honorary chairman, the report said.
