- "Chinese-style modernization is modernization featuring common prosperity and happiness for all, not just a few," President Xi Jinping said in his recent inspection in northeast China's Liaoning Province.
- China's northeast comprising the three provinces of Heilongjiang, Jilin and Liaoning was once a thriving powerhouse on the back of traditional industries including steel, automobile and aircraft manufacturing, shipbuilding and petroleum refining.
- In 2003, the CPC Central Committee launched a revitalization strategy for the region and in 2016, renewed an action plan of focused supportive measures.
- Considering China's aging population and increasing life expectancy of the elderly, aged care services should continue to expand, Xi said.
