A news conference regarding the Aid-Xizang Work was held in Lhasa, the capital of the Xizang autonomous region, on Thursday morning as part of an event to mark the 30th anniversary of the implementation of paired assistance to the region.

In 1994, a significant decision on paired assistance to Xizang was made at the third Xizang Work Symposium. Over the past 30 years, paired assistance to the region has yielded abundant results; the central government has dispatched 10 batches totaling nearly 12,000 cadres to work in the region.
