Beijing News (Reporter Wang Jun) According to Zhejiang Online, today (April 8), the Standing Committee of the 13th People's Congress of Zhejiang Province held its twentieth meeting and decided to appoint Liu Xiaotao as Vice Governor of the People's Government of Zhejiang Province. Liu Xiaotao was previously the first secretary of the prefecture-level municipal party committee in Guangdong. During this cross-provincial appointment, Liu Xiaotao was among the deputy ministerial ranks. This also means adding another member of the "post-70s" provincial and ministerial senior officials.
Liu Xiaotao, born in July 1970, had previously been in Guangdong for a long time.
After graduating from the Labor Economics Department of Renmin University of China in 1992, he returned to Guangdong Province. He started as a member of the Labor Bureau and served as the director of the Wages and Welfare Department of the Provincial Labor Department and the deputy director of the Provincial Labor Security Office , Director of the Office of the Provincial Department of Labor and Social Security, and Deputy Director of the Provincial Local Taxation Bureau.
In April 2012, 42-year-old Liu Xiaotao went to the local area for training. He served as deputy mayor of Maoming City, secretary of Dianbai District Committee, and mayor of Shantou City.
In June 2017, he became the secretary of the Chaozhou Municipal Party Committee and became the first secretary of the prefecture-level municipal party committee in Guangdong.
According to media reports, Liu Xiaotao is resolute in his work. When he encounters difficult things, he will rush to the office on the spot as soon as possible. People in Maoming like to call Liu Xiaotao "Tao brother" privately.
Last May, Liu Xiaotao was appointed Secretary General of the Guangdong Provincial Government. This time he went to Zhejiang to take on a new position, which means that Liu Xiaotao will take a new position in less than a year.
According to the current configuration of the Zhejiang Provincial Government, Liu Xiaotao is the youngest member of the provincial government leadership.
The reporter noted that recently, several provincial government deputies have assumed their new positions. Prior to Liu Xiaotao, there were already three "70s" vice governors in the new post, namely Lai Jiao, vice chairman of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, Zhou Hongbo, vice chairman of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, and Wu Hao, vice governor of Jiangxi Province.
At present, there are at least 20 senior officials in the post-70s nationwide, and most of them hold positions, including Feng Zhonghua, Vice Governor of Hainan Province, Xu Datong, Vice Governor of Shaanxi Province, Zhang Lilin, Vice Governor of Liaoning Province, Ge Haijiao, Vice Governor of Hebei Province, and Tianjin Deputy Governor Mayor Lian Maojun and others were all deputies of the provincial government last year.
