Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, on Wednesday morning visited a rural community in Gulang County in northwestern Gansu Province, saying the happiness of the people is what the CPC pursues.

In Huanghuatan community, which is home to rural residents relocated from environmentally vulnerable and impoverished areas, Xi visited Li Yingchuan's new home, spruced up with a clean yard and well-equipped kitchen and bath facilities.

Seeing the changes from a picture of Li's former home before the relocation, Xi said he was very delighted at the great progress achieved in people's working and living environments there.

"The CPC serves the people and works for the people. The happiness of the people is what the CPC pursues," Xi stressed.
