Xi Calls on Persons with Disabilities to Draw Strength from Role Models, Pursue Dreams


Chinese President Xi Jinping has called on persons with disabilities to draw spiritual strength from role models, overcome difficulties and challenges, and pursue their dreams.


Xi, also general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, made the remarks in an instruction to a gathering held on Friday to commend role models with disabilities and people who have made outstanding contributions in helping those with disabilities.

The gathering came as the country marks the 35th national day of assisting persons with disabilities, which falls on May 18 this year.


Xi noted that persons with disabilities are an important force advancing Chinese modernization, and they are also a special and vulnerable group that needs more support and attention.
