Deputy builds solid foundation for success and construction work

At construction sites in Wangqing county, Jilin province, people often see a woman in a safety helmet. She isn't a builder, but she closely follows the workers and records detailed information about each step they take. Over the past two decades, her attention to detail has helped ensure the safety of many buildings.

The woman's name is Yu Mingji, and she's a deputy to the 14th National People's Congress, as well as being a documenter with a construction company in Wangqing. Over the past two decades, the former housewife has become a technical authority, earning herself a National May 1 Labor Medal for her hard work and a strong sense of responsibility.

The 50-year-old says she has an inherent love for building, and that's why she studied industrial and civil architecture at Jilin Jianzhu University in Changchun, in 1993.
