343 Zhang from Yangzhou

Under everyone's gaze, Zhang Tianbao exuded the demeanor of someone who'd seen the world.

His expression was gentle yet serious as he adjusted the microphone and said, "Having worked in Yangzhou for over two months and attended two democratic life meetings, I've been deeply moved. However, undoubtedly, today's meeting has resonated with me the most."

"First, Secretary Du is open-minded and receptive to opinions, humble in accepting them, pursuing democracy, and advocating for freedom of expression, setting a good example for us Party members and officials."

"Second, Mayor Zhang dares to speak the truth, brave in giving directives and facing the democratic life meeting with even higher standards, which is something all of us should learn from and commend."
