Civil aviation in the Xizang autonomous region has grown into a lifeline for travel, trade and public services on the high-altitude plateau, with passenger numbers expected to reach 8 million by the end of 2025, officials said.
Fully demonstrating the effectiveness of the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China and the strengths of China's socialist system, people of all ethnic groups in the Xizang autonomous region have benefited more than ever before from development since the 18th National Congress of the CPC in 2012.
The number of trips made by overseas visitors to the Xizang autonomous region nearly doubled last year as the region aims to become a world-class tourist destination, a senior official of the region said on Aug 5.
