New Progressive Party

The People's Labour Party (': 人民工黨; Rénmín Gōngdǎng''') is the main party in Manchuria. Since the last legislative elections in 2010 it has remained the largest opposition party within the Supreme People's Assembly holding 296 seats. With 201,643 registered members it has the largest party membership in Manchuria.

The People's Labour Party was formed in 1989 by several moderate members of the then-ruling Manchu Communist Party with the intention of "bringing back left wing politics to the people".

The and controversial coalition with the Congress of Mongolian Unity saw public approval for the PLP drop with the party failing to win the 2010 presidential and legislative elections.

Under the PLP's current leader Feng Jingzhao the latter group are becoming the more vocal faction of the party, although social democrats still constitute a large part of their voting base. The PLP identify themselves as, although some have stated that they have often adopted positions to gain votes.
