Lu Yuyin, former Party boss of Pingshan District in Shenzhen, was appointed Futian District’s Party chief on June 13.

Lu, born in November 1970, received a doctoral degree in economics at Tianjin Municipali­ty’s Nankai University and started work at the General Office of the Shenzhen Municipal Committee of the CPC in July 1998.

In recent years, Futian has focused on high-quality developmen­t, aimed at becoming a model district for modern socialist constructi­on. The district has set the direction for developing “Finance + Science + Culture” and sped up the developmen­t of the Lok Ma Chau Loop area in cooperatio­n with Hong Kong, as well as the Xiangmihu area, as it strives to become a pioneering district for modern industries in the Guangdong-Hong KongMacao Greater Bay Area.

Lu said he would “liberate his mind” and be courageous, pioneering and innovative in his work by taking advantage of the strategic opportunit­ies arising from the developmen­t of the Guangdong-Hong KongMacao Greater Bay Area and guiding Futian in continuing its high-quality developmen­t in the new era.

Futian’s new Party leader also vowed to prioritize improving the people’s wellbeing, education, public services, traffic, water quality and the environmen­t of urban villages by pushing forward the building of a garden city.
