Chairman Hu Jingtao

Hu Jintao served as the General Secretary of the Communist Party of China from 2002 to 2012 and as the President of the People's Republic of China from 2003 to 2013. His leadership is often characterized by a focus on economic development, social stability, and the concept of a "harmonious society." Hu Jintao's administration emphasized a balance between economic growth and the need to address social issues, including poverty alleviation and environmental concerns. After his tenure, Hu Jintao largely stepped back from the public eye, but he remained a significant figure in Chinese politics due to his previous leadership role. His time in office was followed by that of Xi Jinping, who has taken a more assertive approach domestically and internationally.
