Qinghai CCPSC member and Executive Vice Governor Wang Yubo (王予波) was appointed Yunnan Vice Party Secretary on 5 June 2019.
Wang has never left Qinghai before this latest appointment—he first entered Qinghai CCPSC in April 2015 and was appointed Executive Vice Governor. Wang’s appointment thus became the third non-local appointment of provincial vice party secretary—earlier this year, Shanghai CCPSC member and Executive Vice Mayor Zhou Bo (周波) was appointed Liaoning Vice Party Secretary, while Guangdong CCPSC member and Executive Vice Governor Zhang Shaochun (张少春) was appointed Inner Mongolia Vice Party Secretary.
