In a heartfelt gesture ahead of the Spring Festival, General Secretary Xi Jinping of the Communist Party of China Central Committee visited Shenyang, the capital of northeast China's Liaoning Province, on Thursday. The Spring Festival, which falls on January 29 this year, is the most important traditional festival for the Chinese people.
During his visit to Shenyang, Xi Jinping toured a bustling food market and a local residential community. He engaged with vendors and shoppers, inquiring about the availability and prices of goods during the holiday season. His visit aimed to ensure that residents' daily needs are being met and that public services are optimized to enhance the quality of life.
Xi Jinping learned firsthand about the measures implemented to guarantee a sufficient supply of goods and services during the festive period. He showed keen interest in the progress made in improving people's lives, emphasizing the importance of community well-being and social harmony.
For more than a decade, Xi has made it a tradition to spend time with ordinary people ahead of the Spring Festival. His annual visits reflect a commitment to staying connected with communities and understanding the everyday experiences of citizens across China.
