North Korea - China Shift Stance Presidential Election Oriented

1. China's new leader Xi Jinping capped his rise Thursday by adding the largely ceremonial
title of president, though he will need cautious manoeuvring to consolidate his power
and build support from a public that is increasingly clamouring for change.
The elevation of Xi to the presidency by the rubberstamp national legislature gave him
the last of the three titles held by his predecessor, Hu Jintao. The move was expected
after Xi was named head of the Communist Party and chairman of its military,
positions of true power, last November in a once-a-decade handover to a new group of
leaders that has been years in the making.
