 Talk:Hu Jintao - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is true that Hu Jintao has taken some steps to alleviate these problems (sacking several ministers in the process), but on the whole the article gives the impression that everyone is pleased with the handling, which is definitely not the case.
Many people seem to confuse Hu Jintao with the Chinese government in its entirety; which is a fallacy.
Hu is the centerpiece of the bureaucratic machine of the Chinese Communist Party but by no means its absolute dictator.

Hu sealed his reputation after taking control of the military at a meeting of the party's ruling elite in September, a final step in his long climb to power.

Hu Jintao was appointed Party Secretary of the TAR in December 1988, a position he held, mostly in absentia, through 1992.

 Who's Hu? Assessing China's Heir Apparent, Hu Jintao
Hu Jintao seemed genuinely concerned for the welfare of his Guizhou constituency, and by all accounts, the province was very happy to have him.
Hu was merely a provincial-party secretary, but nevertheless entered the inner sanctum of power as a "cross-century cadre." In other words, at the same time that Deng, by removing the Yangs, paved the way for Jiang taking effective power, he also paved the way for Hu Jintao to take over ten years later.
Hu Jintao has been a member of the Politiburo Standing Committee for ten years and a vice chairman of the Central Military Commission for five; Zeng Qinghong is a ministerial-level cadre (head of the Organization Department) and an alternate member of the Politburo.

 CNN.com - Who is Hu Jintao? - Nov. 7, 2002
Since the late 1990s, Hu, a former party secretary of the league, has been able to promote a large number of his protégés -- most of whom are CYL alumnae -- to senior positions in both Beijing and the provinces.
While Hu is expected to succeed Jiang Zemin as party chief at the 16th party Congress, he has been very careful to toe the line of President Jiang, considered the "core" of the Third Generation leadership.
Beijing academics familiar with Hu said, however, that the vice-president had ideas of his own and that because of his more liberal background, he would be expected to push reform, including political reform, at a faster pace than Jiang.

 The Epoch Times | Commentary: Hu Jintao Takes Off the Mask
Hu’s ticket to this infamous club came in the massacre of Hanyuan County, Sichuan Province—a massacre committed by the Communist military under Hu’s command.
At this point, Beijing intervened, and in typical Hu fashion, the public relations were perfect: the county party boss was fired, dam construction was suspended, and a member of the Politburo Standing Committee—the most powerful political organ outside of the Central Military Commission—to the area, supposedly to broker a solution.
Still, Hu’s gambit worked like a charm: he was hailed as a fresh face and “reformer,” notwithstanding his bloody rule over Tibet from 1988 to 1992 or the fact that in his capacity as Tibetan party boss he was the first cadre to congratulate Deng Xiaoping for the Tiananmen Square massacre.

 AsiaMedia :: Hu Jintao's 'Theory of the Three Harmonies'
In a way, the one area that Hu Jintao may have done Hu Yaobang the proudest may be the elevation of dozens of CYL alumnae to senior party and State Council posts.
Hu's task, however, has been made difficult by the fact that Jiang, who was CMC chief for nearly 15 years, had until the very last moment insisted on having the final say on senior-level appointments.
Hu's structural reform has endeared himself to the navy and the air force—which have become the mainstay of China's power projection in the new century.
