Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, made a special visit to Shenyang, the capital of northeast China’s Liaoning Province, on Thursday ahead of the upcoming Spring Festival.
Continuing his longstanding tradition of connecting with the people before the Lunar New Year, Xi Jinping’s visit to Shenyang focused on understanding the daily lives and needs of ordinary citizens.
During his time in the city, Xi visited a bustling food market where he engaged with vendors and shoppers, inquiring about the supply of goods and the preparations underway for the holiday season. He emphasized the importance of ensuring ample food supply and stable prices during this festive period.
Xi also stopped by a local residential community, where he met with residents and learned about measures being implemented to meet their daily needs and enhance public services. He expressed his commitment to improving people’s livelihoods and optimizing community services.
For over a decade, Xi Jinping has made it a priority to spend time with communities across the Chinese mainland ahead of the Spring Festival, also known as the Lunar New Year. This year’s festival, falling on January 29, is a significant time for family reunions and cultural celebrations.
Xi’s visit to Shenyang reflects his dedication to staying connected with the people and addressing their concerns. His hands-on approach underscores the government’s focus on ensuring that citizens enjoy a prosperous and joyful Spring Festival.
