Upholding justice in legal affairs overseas

Apart from participating in the formation of the country's laws, Zhang Yuejiao is witness to its success over the past 40 years

Though Zhang Yuejiao has many honors and illustrious titles in economics and law from home and abroad, Zhang said the reform pioneer medal she was awarded last year was the biggest recognition what she did over the past decades.

The 74-year-old was awarded the medal for her great contributions to China's legal affairs overseas at a grand gathering to mark the 40th anniversary of the country's reform and opening-up on Dec 18.
