Chinese President Xi Jinping has called for a change in local government development concepts on a visit to east China's Jiangxi Province.

Xi, also General Secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, made the remarks during a three-day tour of the revolutionary base areas from Monday to Wednesday, which took him to Ji'an, Jinggangshan and Nanchang, just days ahead of Spring Festival, or the Chinese Lunar New Year.

Chinese leaders traditionally visit ordinary people in both urban and rural areas ahead of the holiday. Xi visited Gansu Province and Beijing in 2013, north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and northwest China's Shaanxi Province in 2015.

He asked officials to uphold and implement the newly identified development concepts -- innovation, coordination, green development, opening up and sharing, as well as to deliver structural reform on the supply side and industrial upgrades.

He also urged local governments to protect the environment and strike a balance between economic growth and conservation.

During his trip, Xi visited villages, businesses, schools, community groups as well as revolutionary base museums in Jiangxi, extending holiday greetings to all Chinese citizens.

He also met with senior military officers stationed in the province, two days after the People's Liberation Army (PLA) was regrouped into five theater commands.

NEW DEVELOPMENT CONCEPTS

Development concepts, which must be adjusted to the changing environment and conditions of development, should guide the development mode and practices, Xi said during his tour in Jiangxi.

Xi called on leading cadres at all levels to apply the new development concepts when pushing forward supply-side structural reform, boosting strong and emerging industries at the same time, upgrading traditional industries as well as developing modern service industries.
