China's western region has a vast territory, which is related to the overall development of the country. It is always a matter of great importance for general secretary Xi Jinping to understand the western region and solve the problem of unbalanced regional development. Since the eighteen Party's Congress, general secretary Xi Jinping has attached great importance to the sustained and healthy development of the western region's economy and society. He has gone to the western provinces for more than 20 visits, and has made a series of important speeches in the frontiers of the grass-roots frontier to take the direction of the western development in the new era. More than 50 million poor people have been lifted out of poverty in an all-round way, major energy projects have been completed one after another, and new industries and new forms of business are booming... A more beautiful, open and dynamic Western China is taking advantage of the situation at a new starting point to create a new pattern of high-quality development and write a new chapter in regional coordinated development. We will consolidate our achievements in poverty eradication and continue to release new momentum for sustainable development "In the past, when going out, we had to climb over a cliff dozens of meters high. Because of the danger, some villagers rarely go out in two or three years." the improvement of infrastructure made the villagers of Huawu village, Xinren Miao Township, Qianxi City, Guizhou Province feel thousands of feelings. Now, the "cliff village" on the edge of the Wujiang River has already passed the mountain road and ushered in a new picture of Rural Revitalization. The western region is the main battlefield in the battle against poverty. All the deep poverty-stricken areas of "three districts and three states" are located in the West. With the completion of China's well-off society in an all-round way this year, the western region has successfully handed over the answer sheet for Poverty Alleviation: since 2012, 50.86 million poor people in the western region have been lifted out of poverty in an all-round way, and all 568 poor counties have taken off their hats! "Achieving a moderately prosperous society is not the end, but a new starting point." When the Spring Festival arrived in 2021, general secretary Xi Jinping came to Hua Hua Village in Guizhou. "We also need to consolidate the achievements of poverty alleviation, continue to promote rural revitalization, go down in a down-to-earth manner according to the established goals, develop industries well, build villages better and create a more colorful life." the general secretary's speech won bursts of applause and cheers from the crowd present. The dilemma that "one soil and water can't afford one person" was once the deepest memory of the people in the western region. Today, the people in the western region have a good life and embark on a new journey. They cannot do without the general secretary Xi Jinping's concern and plan for promoting coordinated regional development, coordinated development and common development over the years. "We should adapt to changes in the situation and tasks, focus on consolidating and expanding the achievements in poverty alleviation, comprehensively promote rural revitalization, and deepen cooperation between the East and the West and targeted assistance." In April this year, the National Conference on East West cooperation and the promotion of the central unit's fixed point assistance work held in Ningxia conveyed the important instructions of general secretary Xi Jinping.

Over the past 20 years, Ningxia cadres and people and Fujian aid groups have worked together to turn "dry beach" into "Golden Beach". The story is moving and touching. Modern wineries have been built on the land that was once the Gobi desert, and people have learned to bring goods online. Traditional industries such as agriculture are accelerating their integration with green food processing, culture and tourism, and the endogenous development momentum in poverty alleviation areas continues to improve In Ninglang Yi Autonomous County, Lijiang City, Yunnan Province, commonly known as Xiaoliangshan, in recent years, through Shanghai Yunnan cooperation, scientific and technological support and enterprise drive, it is building the largest potato virus-free seed potato breeding base in Northwest Yunnan, transforming potatoes from "life-saving potatoes" to "rich potatoes", and continuously releasing the potential of industrial revitalization.

Adhere to ecological priority and explore a high-quality development road in line with local reality The western region is not only an important ecological security barrier in China, but also the birthplace of many major rivers such as the Yangtze River, the Yellow River and the Lancang River. The ecological environment problem in the west is not only related to the western region, but also related to the whole country and the future generations of the Chinese nation. One principle runs through it all. Since the eighteen Party Congress, Xi Jinping has always stressed the importance of ecological protection in the western provinces, and has always adhered to the idea of "beautiful scenery and green hills and clear hills". Over the years, the western region has placed ecological and environmental protection in a prominent position, deeply implemented key ecological projects such as returning farmland to forest, returning grazing land to grassland, natural forest protection, three North Shelterbelt and comprehensive control of rocky desertification, and continuously improved the quality of ecological environment. By the end of 2020, the cumulative implementation of returning farmland to forest and grassland in the western region has exceeded 137 million mu, and the forest coverage rate has exceeded 19.3%. People do not lose Castle Peak, Castle Peak will not lose people. In September 13th this year, general secretary Xi Jinping came to Gao Xi Gou Village in Mizhi County of Shaanxi province to understand the situation of soil erosion control and ecological civilization construction. On a hill in Gaoxigou village, the general secretary looked up. Under the blue sky and white clouds in autumn, the gullies and hills on the Loess Plateau are dressed in green, full of vitality. From the Loess Plateau with deep gullies, to the vast Qinghai Tibet Plateau, and then to the Colorful Yunnan Guizhou Plateau, green is becoming the background color for the development of the western region.

China has one belt, one road, one side, one more way, and the other is to transform its unique regional advantages into an open and developing advantage. "Opening up to promote reform and promoting development"... In recent years, general secretary Xi Jinping has given many occasions to pay attention to the opening and development of Western China.
