(2) The day before (Aug 28), Xinhua announced three other provincial top posts, about which Reuters comments today (Aug 29).

two consecutive paragraphs:
"Both Chen 陈豪 [昨天宣布的 云南省委书记] and Du 杜家毫 [湖南省委书记] worked with Xi when he ran China's commercial capital, Shanghai, as its Communist Party chief for a year in 2007, according to their resumes.
" 'Xi is close to both of them due to their time together in Shanghai,' a source with ties to the leadership told Reuters, speaking on condition of anonymity.
My comment: There is no need to read the rest of the Reuters report, which mainly repeats Xinhua's Aug 28 report.
