Community chief ’s ‘thoughtful services’

Zhou Li, a retired soldier, serves as the chief of Jiading’s Loutang neighborhood committee.

Zhou joined the army at age 18 in 1992 and became one of the eight women soldiers from Jiading District of that year. She was posted in southern Fujian Province.

She arrived half a month later than the rest of the battalion members but mastered all training essentials in three days.

Zhou retired in 1995 as a communications soldier and then worked for a foreign firm and a human resource company for over a decade. She later joined the Loutang neighborhood committee in 2013, embarking on a new career path like her father.

Fueled by her passion for the new role and the memory skills honed as a communications soldier, Zhou quickly learned the names and faces of the community residents. Each day, she gets around the neighborhood, engaging with residents to understand their needs.

Over the past decade, Zhou has led over 60 community workers to accomplish various tasks including rehabilitating a riverbank, increasing parking lots for two neighborhoods, and renovating old neighborhoods.

In Zhou’s opinion, the She Power not only means “taking on responsibilities bravely,” but also “providing detail-oriented, thoughtful services.”

To make Loutang a more beautiful, peaceful and happy neighborhood always remains her commitment.
