FAMOUS ARCHITECT AWARDED JULY 1 MEDAL
Wu Liangyong, a famous architect, educator and founder of the science of human
settlements, was recently awarded the July 1 Medal for outstanding Party members
by the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee.
Born in 1922 in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, Wu graduated in 1944 with a bache-
lor’s degree from the Department of Architecture at the National Central University
in Chongqing. Projects under Wu’s instruction won several awards on the national
level, a gold medal from the Asian Architects of Regional
Council Award for Architecture, and the UN World Habitat
Award.
The July 1 Medal, established by the CPC Central
Committee, is the highest honor in the Party. In general, it will
be granted every five years to celebrate major anniversaries of
the founding of the CPC. This year, the CPC Central Committee
will award the July 1 Medal to outstanding Party members for
the first time as the CPC celebrates its centenary.
