Xi inspects forest farm in Hebei province
SHIJIAZHUANG -- Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, on Monday visited a forest farm in North China's Hebei province where he stressed the importance of developing the green economy and furthering ecological progress.
During his inspection tour of the Saihanba forest farm, Xi learned about the management and protection of the farm, as well as Hebei's coordinated efforts in conserving its mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes and grasslands, and desertification control. Xi also visited forest rangers.
Xi then went to a forest named after Wang Shanghai, a late official of the farm. Xi checked the growth of the trees and learned about the promotion of the Saihanba spirit and the high-quality development of the farm.
Xi said Saihanba spirit is part of the spiritual assets of the Communist Party of China, and the whole of the Party and all people across the country should carry forward the spirit in developing a green economy and building an ecological civilization.
