Zhao Yanping, the executive vice-chairperson of the Trade Union of China Women's University (CWU) visited Yiwu County in Kumul, a city in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region to see Cao Yanjiang, a staff from CWU who has served a temporary position in the region as a vice-secretary.

Yao Guoqiang, the deputy chief of Yiwu introduced the basic development of the area especially the achievements made this year on the conversation with related leaders in Yiwu. Cao also gave a summary report on his work.

The secretary of the local Youth League Committee (YUC) commented on Cao's work performance.

Zhao donated 30,000 yuan (U.S. $4,800) to Yiwu on behalf of CWU and expressed her thankfulness for the platform and support Yiwu had provided for the temporary employee there and asked for Cao's work to achieve even more in the last several months. She also discussed with the leaders on common construction in Yiwu.

To support the encouragement of the Central Youth League, Cao as the staff member of the Communist Youth League in CWU volunteered to go to Yiwu for practice in last September. As temporary vice-secretary, Cao mainly assists in the project management of the volunteers of college students, the work style construction, on publicity and the application of new media and liaison communication.

The Western Plan Program he worked on was the only county project that was carried through to the whole of Xinjiang and then taken nationwide.

The student volunteers in Yiwu described Cao as "humorous but harsh".
