1997年12月,马金虎就任中共固原地委副书记、固原地区行署专员、固原地区武委会主任。他就任后的第一次行署办公会议定在军分区召开,并对各部门领导动之以情,晓之以理,一再强调再苦不能苦了驻军部队,再难不能难民兵工作,其言之凿凿,其情之感人,令在场的领导为之动容。 December 1997, Ma Jinhu became the deputy secretary of the CPC Guyuan plain, Guyuan district executive commissioner, Guyuan district commission director. When he took office, his first executive office meeting was scheduled to be held in the army sub-region. Leaders of various departments were motivated to act emphatically and rationally. They repeatedly stressed that they should not suffer bitterly from the garrison forces and could hardly work hard to get militiamen to speak. The chisel, the touching feelings of the presence of the leaders for the movement.
