Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, on Thursday visited Shenyang, the capital of northeast China's Liaoning Province, ahead of the upcoming Spring Festival.
During his visit, Xi toured a food market and a residential community, where he learned about the supply of goods during the holiday season. He inquired about measures in place to meet residents' daily needs and efforts to optimize public services. Xi also observed the progress made in improving people's lives in the region.
For more than a decade, Xi, as the top leader of the Party and the state, has established a tradition of spending time with ordinary people ahead of the Spring Festival, the most important festival for the Chinese people, which falls on January 29 this year.
Xi's visit highlights the government's commitment to ensuring that citizens enjoy a prosperous and joyous Spring Festival. His interactions with locals reflect an ongoing focus on community well-being and social development in the Chinese mainland.
