Shanghai Committee of the Chinese Communist Party
The Shanghai Municipal Committee of the Chinese Communist Party serves as the local leadership organ for the Communist Party in Shanghai. The committee wields significant political influence, with its secretary traditionally being a member of the Chinese Communist Party’s Central Political Bureau. The municipality has historically produced numerous high-ranking national leaders — including two General Secretaries, Jiang Zemin (江泽民) and Xi Jinping (习近平), and two premiers, Zhu Rongji (朱镕基) and Li Qiang (李强) — and other top national officials.
