2012年12月29日,雪后天晴的北京一片澄明,仿佛以最靓丽的姿态迎接新一年的到来。位于世纪坛的京西宾馆附近已经布置了新年的灯柱,一年一度的全国交通运输工作会议在此召开。与往年不同,会议由全国民航总局局长李家祥主持,没有了冗长的到场领导介绍,直接进入新任交通运输部部长杨传堂做大会主题报告的环节,历时1个多小时。 December 29, 2012 After a snow-covered Beijing is clear, it is as if the new year will be greeted with the most beautiful gesture. The New Year’s lamppost has been arranged near the Beijing West Hotel in the Millennium Monument. The annual national transportation conference was held here. Unlike in previous years, the meeting was presided over by Li Jiaxiang, director of the Civil Aviation Administration of China. Without lengthy introduction from the leaders present at the meeting, he directly went into the keynote speech of Yang Chuan Tang, the newly appointed Minister of Transport, which took more than 1 hour.
