President Xi in Lhasa: Unity and Modernization on the Plateau 🏔️
President Xi Jinping, who also serves as general secretary of the CPC Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, touched down in Lhasa on Wednesday to mark the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Xizang Autonomous Region. With stunning Himalayan views on the horizon, the leader urged everyone to team up in writing a fresh chapter of modernization—think better roads, stronger connectivity, and sustainable tourism that honors local culture.
In a series of meetups that felt more like a community jam session than formal sit-downs, Xi chatted with representatives from all ethnic groups—Tibet, Han, Uygur and more—plus officials at every level, judicial workers, police officers, and even members of the religious circles. He sent warm greetings to the people of Xizang, highlighting unity, shared progress, and respect for traditions.
The afternoon vibe carried on as Xi sat down with military officers ranked colonel and above, along with grassroots role models and civilian staff from troops stationed in Lhasa. He passed along his appreciation for their high-altitude dedication, giving a nod to the tough terrain and thin air these teams face every day.
Leading the central delegation were Wang Huning, chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and Cai Qi from the General Office of the CPC Central Committee. Together, they painted a picture of Xizang's bright future—a blend of tech upgrades, cultural pride, and eco-friendly growth that resonates from Lhasa to every village on the plateau.
For young pros dreaming of sustainable travel, high-tech careers, or social impact projects, Xizang's transformation is one to watch. Ready for a new wave of innovation in the “Roof of the World”? Keep your eyes on Lhasa! 💪🚀
