Xi Jinping Visits Shenyang Ahead of Spring Festival
Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, visited Shenyang, the capital of northeast China's Liaoning Province, on Thursday, in the lead-up to this year's Spring Festival.
During his visit, Xi Jinping toured a local food market and a residential community, where he engaged with residents and vendors. He inquired about the supply of goods during the holiday season, measures taken to meet daily needs, and efforts to enhance public services. His interactions highlighted the progress made in improving people's lives in the region.
The trip reflects a longstanding tradition for Xi, who, for more than a decade, has spent time with ordinary people ahead of the Spring Festival—China's most significant festival, which falls on January 29 this year. By visiting communities and markets, he emphasizes the importance of ensuring that residents have access to necessary goods and services during this festive period.
Xi's engagement with the local community in Shenyang underscores the government's focus on addressing the needs of the people and enhancing their quality of life, particularly during important cultural celebrations.
