Make life convenient while improving living environment
Chinese roses are in full blossom at the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, capital of China, May 16, 2017. Born in Chengdu, Sichuan province, known for its vibrant city life, and having studied in Xiamen, Fujian province, one of the five special economic zones set up in the country following the reform and opening-up policy, I quite naturally felt Beijing in those days lacked color. However, during a discussion with Beijing vice-mayor Cheng Hong early this month, even some old Beijing residents complained about the inconvenience caused by the closure of markets. According to Cheng, Beijing relocated or upgraded 117 markets last year, of which 45 sold agricultural products. As a southerner living in Beijing, I hope and believe urban management, and the implementation of Cheng's promise, will make life more convenient for residents while improving the living environment in the capital.
