It was introduced that the selection solution of “ten cultural symbols of Yizhang county” was principally passed by Yizhang County Party Committee Standing Committee (Enlarged) Conference on June 6, 2016. From the beginning of this May when the collection activity was launched, more than 50 cultural symbols were collected by the sponsor of the event. 30 nominees were confirmed by the leader group of the selection work. All of them were posted on the public Wechat ID of “Liveable Yizhang” (“宜人宜章”) for public voting. More than 10,000 votes were received from the public.
