Let us tell you that with Jinping becoming the President of China for the third time, the three-decade-old rule of the party has also been broken. Actually, after 1980 in China, the rule of 10-year tenure at the highest office was made. However, this rule was put aside to keep Jinping in power for five more years. In such a situation, Jinping was once again elected President.
Steady growth in a decade
Wang Jiangwei, former editor-in-chief of the South China Morning Post, said the main reason for Xi Jinping’s remarkable rise in stature over the past decade is his “anti-corruption campaign”. Born in 1953, Xi, unlike many communist leaders, came to power closely because of his father, Shi Zhongshun. Mao appointed revolutionary leader Zhongshun as minister of propaganda and education.
When Xi was young, he and his family had to go through difficult times. When his father was harassed by Mao because of his liberal views. Xi is said to have spent his childhood close to Mao in Zhongnanhai, the official residential complex of the party leadership in Beijing. After differences arose between Xi’s father and Mao, and Zhongshun was exiled, all of Xi’s privileges were taken away. Xi had to drop out of school at the age of 13 during Mao’s Cultural Revolution and go to the village and face many difficulties.
