President Xi Jinping’s recent visit to northwest China’s Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region has ignited fresh momentum for development, with locals vowing to build a ‘modern, harmonious homeland’ under the CPC’s guidance. During his three-day trip, Xi emphasized creating a Xinjiang marked by unity, prosperity, and cultural vibrancy—a vision resonating deeply with residents.
💬 "My hometown has transformed! We’re united like pomegranate seeds," said Halimulati Rexiti, a performer from Turpan, reflecting the region’s emphasis on ethnic cohesion. Meanwhile, community leader Ma Lingxiang highlighted improved healthcare and education, noting a ‘rising sense of security and happiness’ since 2012.
📈 Xinjiang’s economic leap is staggering: its 2024 GDP hit 2 trillion yuan ($281.4B)—203 times higher than in 1955. Once plagued by poverty, the region lifted 3.06 million rural residents out of destitution by 2020, per official data.
🌱 Officials like Hetian’s Bai Lin pledged to "forge ahead with ethnic integration," while tourism leader Peng Ziyuan aims to put Xinjiang on the global map through cultural and eco-friendly travel. "We’re determined to make this a world-class destination," he said.
From booming industries to thriving communities, Xinjiang’s story is one of resilience—and its people are just getting started. 🚀
