After the oath was taken, Li told the officials to perform their duties conscientiously and honestly.
Vice premiers Zhang Gaoli, Liu Yandong, Wang Yang and Ma Kai, State councilors Chang Wanquan and Wang Yong, as well as some leading officials of State Council departments, were present at the ceremony.
