(XINHUA)

Yu Youjun, Deputy Director of the General Office at the South-to-North Water Diversion Committee of the State Council, has donated 1.6 million yuan ($262,400) worth of books to a community cultural center in Datong, north China's Shanxi Province, on October 15.

Yu, 60, served as the governor of Shanxi from 2005 to 2007. He launched a series of initiatives during his tenure to build new apartments for coal mining families who had dwelled in shanty towns for decades. Datong is the second largest city in the province and well known for its abundant coal reserves.
