Su Bomin, a deputy to the National People's Congress , also dean of Dunhuang Academy, has been working for three decades in the Mogao Grottoes, a UNESCO World Heritage site in Dunhuang, Northwest China's Gansu province.

Since the start of his service as NPC deputy, Su has put forward a series of suggestions on the protection of cultural relics. During this year's "two sessions", the annual sessions of the National People's Congress and the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, apart from working on the disciplinary construction of cultural relics protection, Su will also advance suggestions on facilitating the establishment of a key state research laboratory for cultural relics protection, aiming to merge the protection of cultural relics into the system of scientific and technological innovation and development.

"We regard the country's emphasis on cultural relics protection as a great opportunity for our work," said Su, "I hope cultural relics protection can be improved with the help of science and technology and the traditional Chinese culture will be better promoted."
