However, Li is said to share a daughter with his wife, Cheng Hong. His daughter is said to be based studies in the United States of America where she studies.
Because the late politician kept his private life under wraps, the name, date of birth, age, and occupation of his said daughter is currently unknown to us.
Li was once tipped to be the country’s future leader but was overtaken by President Xi Jinping. He was the only incumbent top official who didn’t belong to Xi’s loyalists group.
As a trained economist, Li held the second highest-ranked position in China, though in recent years, he was isolated amongst China’s top leadership.
Li was known as a leader who worked for the less privileged, with policies focused on reducing the wealth gap and providing affordable housing.
He also pushed for policies to encourage entrepreneurship and technology innovation, especially among young people.
During the country’s Covid lockdowns, he held meetings instructing various government departments to clear logistical hurdles for foreign companies to resume production.
He was also the highest-level official to visit Wuhan in January 2020, when the city was under lockdown and battling a surge of infections during the COVID-19 outbreak.
