Former Chinese Premier Li Keqiang Dies of Sudden Heart Attack at 68

 


Former Chinese Premier Li Keqiang passed away at the age of 68 due to a sudden heart attack while in Shanghai. He served as premier for a decade, under President Xi Jinping, before retiring in March 2023. Li was a well-educated economist and was once considered a top contender for Communist Party leadership but saw a diminishing role in recent years. He is known for the "Five-points to one Line" project, where he linked up Dalian and Dandong, as well as a series of other ports into a comprehensive network to improve trade flow.

In 2020, he raised awareness about income inequality in China by stating that over 600 million people earned less than the equivalent of SGD$200 per month. What are your thoughts? You may post anonymously below.
