New services include more group interviews for overseas reporters apart from the three open press conferences during the session.
Overseas media can apply through the official website www.cpcnews.cn for interview requests, said Cong Wu, an official with the media center, which officially opened on Monday morning in the Media Center Hotel in central Beijing.
More delegations1 will also throw their door open this year for media coverage2, said Zhu Shoucheng, deputy director of the center.
Fifteen of the 38 delegations were open to interviews during the 16th National Congress of the CPC in 2002.
Overseas photographers who previously3 had to zoom4 in from a long distance will be allowed closer contact with Party leaders and delegates - a privilege previously given only to a few Chinese media - an official surnamed Li with the media center told China Daily on Monday.
The center, decorated in auspicious5 red and with Chinese knots, also offers beverages6, Internet access and free photo, radio and TV transmission, said Zhu.
A total of 1,033 overseas reporters from 258 media organizations in 42 countries and regions, including 342 from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, have signed up at the center, Zhu said.
The number of overseas reporters registered for the 16th Party congress was 859.
Economic and social development has overtaken Party personnel changes as the main focus for overseas reporters.
"Economic and political development and the Olympic Games are all inter-related. I want to cover as many topics as possible in addition to the congress," said Olga Tanasiichuk with the National News Agency of Ukraine, who got her press card Monday from the center.
Tanasiichuk, who also covered the 16th Party congress, said that she was not overly interested in personnel changes as "unlike in other countries, leadership changes do not mean a change in policy direction".
Michael Bristow, a BBC reporter based in Beijing, said that apart from personnel changes, he is also interested in the scientific concept of development and building a harmonious7 society.
Cao Jingxing, a leading commentator8 with Hong Kong-based Phoenix9 TV, said his group will focus on the new guidelines on cross-Straits issues and the Party's solutions to emerging social problems.
