CPC members praised by Xi

Jiao Yulu (1922-1964)

On an inspection tour in 2014, Xi urged government officials to look upon the people they serve as family members and celebrated Jiao Yulu, a local official from Henan province, known for his work ethic as a model for officials to emulate.

From 1962 to 1964, Jiao Yulu served as chief of Lankao county in Henan province. In one oft-told story of Jiao, he refused to stay in the hospital despite suffering from liver cancer and worked as a civil servant until his death at his post in 1964.
