President Xi Jinping braved the cold on Wednesday to visit flood-affected residents in northeast China's Liaoning Province. Demonstrating solidarity and concern, Xi met with villagers in Zhujiagou, a small community under the administration of Suizhong County, Huludao City.
The region has recently faced severe flooding, impacting the livelihoods of many rural families. During his visit, Xi Jinping, who is also the general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, spoke with residents to learn about their challenges and the recovery efforts underway.
This visit comes ahead of the Spring Festival, China's most significant cultural celebration, which falls on January 29 this year. The timing underscores the importance of community and support during the festive season, especially for those affected by natural disasters.
Xi's engagement with the local community highlights the government's commitment to assisting those in need and ensuring that all citizens can partake in the upcoming festivities with hope and confidence.
