Its report is focused on daily activities of Provincial Communist Leaders (such as Provincial Party Secretary Bai Keming) and the social and economic development of the province.
As a newspaper mainly for propaganda purposes, it is circulated in the government departments, state-owned companies, and military units. It lacks popularity among citizens, as they generally think the report is boring.
