Northeast China's Liaoning Province is stepping up efforts to rebuild homes affected by summer floods in Chaoyang City and Huludao City, aiming to secure the local residents a warm winter.
As the winter is approaching, local authorities pledged to finish housing reconstruction in rural areas by the end of October.
In Maohezi Village of Chaoyang City, villager Wu Xiujun is about to move into her new home. Her house has finished structural construction, and workers are busy on interior finishing.
"I am so happy to live in the new house. I'm filled with joy," said Wu.
In Zhujiagou Village of Huludao City, the reconstruction of the whole village is about to finish, with over 340 workers working around the clock.
"The new houses are taking shape day after day. The construction has been quick with good quality. We villagers are all satisfied and delighted," said Wang Nan, a local villager.
Yangzhudixia Village of Huludao City, where villagers are relocated from the disaster this summer, is seeing insulation installed for 55 newly built brick houses. Villagers expect to move in by the end of October.
"The project schedule is scientifically arranged, and every process is designated with two persons in charge, one for supervision and coordination, and the other is responsible for technical disclosure. In this way, we can guarantee the quality of our project," introduced Xie Hui, deputy manager of Communications Construction and Municipal Administration Cooperation under the Communications Construction Group of Huludao City.
As of Saturday, Liaoning has completed rebuilding nearly 90 percent of the 16,651 houses damaged by natural disasters.

Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, on Monday called for advancing full and rigorous Party self-governance with higher standards and more concrete measures.
Xi, also Chinese president and chairman of the Central Military Commission, made the remarks while addressing the fifth plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) in Beijing.
Xi urged efforts to confine power to an institutional cage in a more well-conceived and effective manner, and press ahead with the anti-corruption fight with a clearer understanding and stronger resolve, thus providing a strong guarantee for achieving the goals and tasks of the 15th Five-Year Plan period (2026-2030).
Xi pointed out that in 2025, the CPC Central Committee had intensified efforts to improve Party conduct, uphold integrity and combat corruption, achieving notable results. Xi said efforts were made to maintain a tough stance against corruption and eradicate the breeding grounds and conditions for corruption.
Xi emphasized that implementing the major decisions and plans of the CPC Central Committee is a fundamental requirement for upholding its authority and its centralized, unified leadership.
Party organizations at all levels and Party members and officials should implement the decisions and plans of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee with concrete actions, he said.
Xi noted that confining power to an institutional cage is an important task in exercising full and rigorous Party self-governance.
He stressed that all are equal before the law and regulations, that compliance with them admits no privilege, and that enforcement of the law and regulations allows no exception.
Xi underscored that the fight against corruption is a major struggle that the Party cannot afford to lose, and must never lose.
He said that the current anti-corruption situation remains grave and complex, and that the task of eliminating the soil and conditions breeding corruption remains arduous. Xi added that it is essential to maintain a firm stance to leave corrupt officials with no place to hide.
Stressing the need to stay attuned to new trends and features of corruption, Xi urged efforts to innovate methods and approaches, promptly detect and accurately identify corrupt practices, and effectively address all forms of corruption, so as to continuously enhance the penetrating power of anti-corruption efforts.
He also urged strengthening coordination among all forms of oversight to advance integrated governance through whole-process collaboration, and called for sustained efforts to forge a loyal, upright and responsible disciplinary inspection and supervision force that dares to and is good at fighting against corruption.
Members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee Li Qiang, Zhao Leji, Wang Huning, Cai Qi and Ding Xuexiang attended the meeting.
Li Xi, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and secretary of the CCDI, presided over the meeting. On Monday afternoon, on behalf of the standing committee of the CCDI, Li also delivered a work report.
