Those who have served as Chairmen of the NPC Standing Committee since the founding of the People’ s Republic of China include: Liu Shaoqi, Zhu De , Ye Jianying, Peng Zhen, Wan Li, Qiao Shi, Li Peng, Wu Bangguo and Zhang Dejiang.

The vice-chairpersons and the secretary-general assist the chairperson in his or her work. The chairperson, vice-chairpersons and secretary-general constitute the Council of Chairpersons, which handles the important day-to-day work of the Standing Committee. 

The NPC Standing Committee normally meets once every two months. It may hold interim meetings when there is a special need. The NPC Standing Committee is responsible to the NPC and reports to it on its work. The NPC has the power to alter or annul inappropriate decisions made by the Standing Committee and to remove its members from office.

The delivery of this congratulatory message by the Chinese Ambassador to DRC, ZHU Jing coming from H.E.M. LI Zhanshu, Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress of China, to Hon. Modeste BAHATI LUKWEBO, Speaker of the Senate of the DRC, is a very good sign of the strengthening of diplomatic relations between the 2 countries.
