As the Spring Festival approaches, Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, visited Shenyang, the capital of northeast China's Liaoning Province, on Thursday. The visit underscores his tradition of spending time with ordinary people ahead of the most important festival for the Chinese people.
During his trip, Xi visited a food market and a residential community in Shenyang. He learned about the supply of goods during the holiday season and reviewed measures in place to meet residents' daily needs and optimize public services. He also examined the progress made in improving people's lives, reflecting his continued commitment to the well-being of the population.
For more than a decade, Xi, as the top leader of the Party and the state, has made it a tradition to engage directly with citizens before the Spring Festival, which falls on January 29 this year. His visits highlight the importance of staying connected with the people and ensuring that their needs are met, especially during significant cultural events.
