Xu Xiaoqin: An Excellent Policewoman in Chongqing

In Shiqiaopu, a residential area of Chongqing, people cordially call Xu Xiaoqin, a policewoman, "Xu Huji" meaning "household register Xu," based on her responsibility. When she was elected delegate to the CPC 16th National Congress this year, the residents of Shiqiaopu all applauded to show their agreement.

When Xu first arrived at Shiqiaopu, it was a neighborhood of notoriously dirty and disorderly, where harassing incidents happened frequently. Xu visited the household one by one and talked with the people. She also led a patrolling team in the evening to ensure public security. After a year's hard work, the public order in this area improved remarkably.

At that time, Xu was suffering from aplastic anemia, which required her to rest, but she always rushed to the front whenever a case took place. Several times, she fainted at the case sites.

The local residents tried every means to help her recover, accompanying her to see doctors, fetching her mineral water from mountains dozens of kilometers away and making soft cloth shoes for her.

Xu said the police is fish and the common people are water. "The residents here treat me as their daughter and they help me and support me. I have no reason not to repay them with my good service."
