Last Thursday, Lhasa got a VIP visit! A central delegation entrusted by Xi Jinping rolled into the city to connect with officials, residents, and local legends. 🌄
At the helm was Wang Huning, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. He's on a mission to power up four key areas: stability, development, eco-protection, and frontier strength. 🚀
The team met senior officials in Lhasa and representatives from various ethnic groups to chat about lasting peace and high-quality growth across the Xizang Autonomous Region in the southwestern part of the Chinese mainland. 🤝
Next stop was the Jokhang Temple, where patriotic figures from Xizang's religious circles got involved. Wang Huning encouraged them to safeguard unity and solidarity while helping build a modern socialist new Xizang. 🕊️
From there, the delegation checked out Xizang University 🎓 to see the latest strides in higher education. They also hit up a local park to admire afforestation and greening efforts that promise a greener tomorrow. 🌳
Wang emphasized that improving people's wellbeing, boosting jobs, and growing incomes are top priorities on the path to common prosperity. 💼💰
The visit comes as the region celebrates the 60th anniversary of its founding, marking six decades of culture, community, and change. 🎉
