China's relations with the United States have undeniably deteriorated in recent years. Xi Jinping seems to be aware that 'against' the superpower can increase China's prestige in the eyes of the world. No doubt that Xi Jinping will remain relaxed during the onslaught of human rights and Taiwan issues that the United States and other allies continue to blow.

2. Commitment Against Corruption

Since first taking office as China's president in 2013, Xi Jinping has been committed to eradicating corruption within the Chinese Communist Party. This step is considered quite popular among the people, although rumors often arise only as a tool to get rid of political opponents.

3. Tame the Difficult Border Areas

The vastness of China's territory has indeed given rise to the consequences of the disorder in several areas that are far from Beijing's monitoring. These include Tibet, Xinjiang, and Hong Kong. These three regions have always succeeded in making the Chinese Communist Party dizzy. To overcome the situation, Xi Jinping took a firm and tough stance, including the most popular, by detaining more than one million Uyghur Muslim minorities in the Xinjiang region.

Regarding the massive demonstrations in Hong Kong, Xi Jinping immediately hit him with a national security law. As for Tibet, Xi Jinping immediately increased the public security budget.

All Chinese leaders since Mao have had a big mission to 'reunite' China with the island of Taiwan. Likewise with Xi Jinping. It's no wonder that rising tensions in the Taiwan Strait in recent years have indeed become Xi Jinping's strategy.

Xi Jinping has increased state control over the private sector, especially online platforms, and non-profit education, through crackdowns and policies.

Under his leadership, the era of double-digit annual growth has indeed ended and was inevitable. It cannot be avoided from China's economic growth in the last decade. Likewise, China's aggressive steps to invest massively in its neighboring countries, including Indonesia.

Xi Jinping took firm steps against criticism and protests at home. It also closes the space for dissent and increases censorship. No wonder there are more and more individual prisoners in secret prisons.

China is the fastest-growing country for military affairs today, including Xi Jinping's modernization efforts. Especially by strengthening its Navy fleet. No wonder, if they seem confident in 'challenging' the United States around Taiwan.

Right now, China is moving fast and trying to take the lead in environmentally friendly technologies. One is by focusing on escaping coal dependence and leading the development of electric vehicles.

Even Xi Jinping targets that by 2060, China will be completely clean of carbon. This is evidenced by the improved air quality in China in the last decade.

Although poverty is still visible, China is starting to increase poverty and even slowly disappearing. Xi Jinping has tried to overcome extreme poverty so far and his success in eradicating extreme poverty is a parameter of his success at the domestic level.
