Xi highlights future for urban development during conference
(MENAFN) Chinese President Xi Jinping outlined key priorities for China’s future urban development during the Central Urban Work Conference held in Beijing from Monday to Tuesday. Addressing top Communist Party officials, Xi stressed the importance of strategic planning, innovation, and sustainability to guide China's continued urbanization.
Xi, who also serves as General Secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and Chairman of the Central Military Commission, emphasized the need to improve city governance, enhance public services, and ensure ecological and cultural preservation.
The president noted China’s transition from a predominantly rural nation to one where over 67% of residents now live in urban areas—a significant transformation since the reform and opening-up era of the late 1970s. He called for balanced development between large and small cities, improved infrastructure, and enhanced disaster preparedness.
Senior CPC leaders including Premier Li Qiang and top officials Zhao Leji, Wang Huning, Cai Qi, Ding Xuexiang, and Li Xi also attended the conference.
Xi’s remarks highlight urbanization as a core component of China’s modernization strategy, aligning with broader goals of high-quality development, social equity, and environmental sustainability.
