Don't miss any chance to express your love

President Xi is a filial son. He chats with his mother Qi Xin and takes a walk with her whenever he has time.

He has stressed the importance of family bonds and family love on many occasions. While addressing the annual Spring Festival greetings on Jan 26, 2017, Xi called on the nation to love families and friends. Love should reach every family and bring warmth to all Chinese like a spring breeze blowing across the nation, he said.

Inspired by Xi's photo with his mother, many Chinese netizens during this year's Spring Festival posted pictures holding hands of their mothers.
