Responding to the call of Chinese President Xi Jinping from his New Year message for 2025, Chinese people have pledged all-out efforts in achieving progress in the new year.
In his New Year message for 2025 delivered on Tuesday, Xi said he visited many places across the country in 2024 and saw how the people enjoy their enriching lives, including a Huaniu apple production base in northwest China's Gansu Province, northern Tianjin's Ancient Culture Street, and a mixed-ethnic residential community in northwest China's Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region.
"Huaniu apples grew well in 2024 with high output. In the new year, we will refine precise management so as to enhance the scale and strength of Huaniu apple production, and increase incomes," said Wu Zhengquan, farmer with a Huaniu apple production base in Maiji District of Gansu's Tianshui City.
Xi visited the base on Sept 11, 2024.
"President Xi Jinping showed great care about better education for our children, great elderly care services, as well as better opportunities for development of us young people. Living in this era makes me feel particularly lucky. We are also full of energy in the new year. I believe that our days will be better and better," said Mu Fei, a resident in Tianjin.
Xi visited Tianjin's Ancient Culture Street on Feb 1, 2024.
"We will bear in mind the expectations of General Secretary Xi, ensure solid progress of services for residents in an in-depth and detailed manner, and deliver a better life for every household. I wish our motherland prosperity in the new year," said Ma Tao, employee of a residential community in Yinchuan City of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region.
Xi visited the mixed-ethnic residential community on June 19, 2024, underscoring the importance of ethnic unity that can be seen in the residents living harmoniously and happily together.
