On the snowy plateau in March, willows spit green, and another spring comes as promised. People of all ethnic groups in Tibet put on their holiday costumes and danced a cheerful Guozhuang dance to welcome the anniversary of the liberation of millions of serfs in Tibet. 63 years ago, in the spring, under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, a democratic reform centered on the abolition of the feudal serfdom integrating politics and religion was carried out in Tibet in an all-round way, thus opening up a new historical era in Tibet from darkness to light, from backwardness to progress, from poverty to wealth, from autocracy to democracy, and from closure to opening up. Over the past 63 years, in the big family of the Chinese nation, the newly born children of all ethnic groups in Tibet are determined to work together and create a human miracle of great changes in the social system and the historic elimination of absolute poverty. New era: snow covered plateau changed the world "It's the most beautiful thing I've ever experienced in my life from turning serfs into masters to getting rid of poverty and becoming rich and well-off!" Sitting at his home in anmaixi village, sodoxi Township, Mangkang County, Changdu City, Xiang qiuram, a 77 year old villager, enjoys the happiness of four generations living together. Her three storey building is located next to a flower field, with a pleasant environment. When spring comes to Yalong River Valley, the fresh soil rolls under the plow and harrow. Spring ploughing awakens Shannan city again, which is the Sleeping land of Zaxi qudeng community, East District. The manor territory of the old Tibetan nobles is now the home of 129 ordinary residents. "In the old society, we rented 3 mu of land, and most of the harvest had to be handed in. A family of five people often went hungry." Said CIREN wangm, an 80 year old resident. By the middle of the 20th century, slavery had been completely abandoned by modern civilized society. In Tibet, there are still millions of serfs who wear heavy shackles under the feudal serfdom. Reforming Tibet's social system is the fundamental aspiration of the Tibetan people. On March 10, 1959, in order to keep the serfdom of political and religious unity unchanged, the Tibetan reactionary upper class group headed by the Dalai Lama brazenly launched a comprehensive armed rebellion aimed at splitting the motherland. On March 28, 1959, the central government announced the dissolution of the local government of Tibet. The Preparatory Committee of the Tibet Autonomous Region exercised the functions and powers of the local government of Tibet and led the people of all ethnic groups in Tibet to carry out democratic reform while fighting the rebellion, so that millions of serfs were liberated. People's Liberation converges into changes of the times. After the democratic reform, the state has arranged a large number of major projects related to the long-term development of Tibet and the improvement of people's lives in different periods. In 2021, the gross domestic product of the Tibet Autonomous Region exceeded 200 billion yuan, and the economic growth rate has been in the forefront of the country for many consecutive years. In October 2020, on the occasion of the decisive battle against poverty, the Tibet Autonomous Region held a press conference to announce that by the end of 2019, all 74 poverty-stricken counties in Tibet had taken off their hats, 628000 registered poverty-stricken people had been lifted out of poverty, and absolute poverty had been eliminated historically. "The Communists of the new era have done what previous feudal dynasties have failed to do! The historic achievement of saying goodbye to poverty in Tibet is a powerful witness to the brilliance created by the people of all ethnic groups in Tibet under the leadership of the Communist Party of China." Che minghuai, former party secretary of the Tibetan Academy of Social Sciences, said, "Tibet's development achievements over the past 60 years are a sample of the leapfrog development achievements made by China's ethnic minority border areas under the leadership of the Communist Party of China." 63 years of leapfrog development, the snow covered plateau has long changed the world. New chapter: the flower of national unity blooms on the plateau "To promote high-quality development in Tibet, we should adhere to the principle that all development should be endowed with the significance of national unity and progress.". After the novel coronavirus pneumonia outbreak, novel coronavirus pneumonia patients in Tibet are the only new crown pneumonia patients in Tibet. The medical and nursing team of the third people's Hospital of multi-ethnic children left behind a "hospital, a patient" doctor's benevolence. The Tibetan people have never forgotten that when Naqu in Tibet was hit by natural disasters such as the catastrophic snow disaster, the people of the whole country extended a helping hand and tide over the difficulties with the people of the snowy plateau. In today's Tibet, people of all ethnic groups can be seen as close as one family. Hebalin community is located in the old urban area of Lhasa, Tibet. Walking into the community, people of all ethnic groups live next to each other in sweet tea shops, barber shops, fresh meat shops and medicine shops. People of all ethnic groups settle here to do business and learn from each other. "For more than 20 years, I rented four facades here and brought out three Tibetan apprentices. The Tibetan residents in the compound are very enthusiastic and take better care of our family." Fang Tianyuan, a 50 year old community resident, said that in 2001, at the invitation of relatives and friends, their family came here to open a barber shop, and their son Fang Jie also worked in Tibet. In Tibet, people cherish national unity as much as they cherish their own eyes. On May 1, 2020, the regulations on the establishment of a model region for national unity and progress in the Tibet Autonomous Region was officially implemented, and Tibet became the first province in China to propose the establishment of a model region in the form of local legislation; In November 2021, the 10th Party Congress of the Tibet Autonomous Region proposed that Tibet will take multiple measures to ensure that all prefectures and cities become national demonstration cities of national unity and progress, all counties (districts) will be built into model counties (districts) of national unity and progress at the autonomous region level, and more than 80% of prefectures and counties will establish model units of national unity and progress at the same level. A series of policies and measures to safeguard and guarantee national unity, and constantly build an innovation and guarantee system for national unity, so that the story of exchanges and integration of all ethnic groups in the new era can continue to be staged in Tibet. Shan Jinxiang, 46, whose ancestral home is Linxia, Gansu Province, went with the engineering team to build a bridge in Taizhao village, Jiangda Town, gongbujiangda County, Nyingchi city in 2004. He met a beautiful and kind-hearted Tibetan girl, Qi Mei, married and became a member of Taizhao village. "The local people never bullied me, an outsider. They gave me a registered permanent residence and gladly accepted me." According to Shan Jinxiang, the people in Taizhao village are very kind, and the villagers also like this hardworking and frugal foreign son-in-law. "You have me and I have you. No one can live without anyone. On this basis, all ethnic groups can achieve common prosperity and share achievements." Wan Jinpeng, a professor at the Party School of the Tibet Autonomous Region, said that practice over the years has repeatedly proved that national unity is a solid foundation for Tibet's prosperity and development. New layout: optimize structure and promote high-quality development Green water and green mountains are Jinshan and Yinshan, and ice and snow are also Jinshan and Yinshan. Clean energy is the epitome of optimizing the industrial structure and promoting high-quality development in Tibet. In recent years, taking advantage of the opportunity of building a national clean energy connection base, Tibet has built a clean energy industry. By 2020, clean energy has accounted for 89.09% of the installed power generation capacity in the region, and a green development pattern is taking shape. Since the 18th CPC National Congress, with the care and support of the CPC Central Committee, a number of major projects benefiting the people's livelihood and supporting the foundation of the national economy have sprung up on the snowy plateau. On this basis, cultural tourism, modern services, plateau biology, Tibetan medicine, high-tech digital and other industries have gradually developed and expanded towards the direction of strategic emerging industries. The quality of high-quality development depends on the satisfaction of the masses. "When we are old, we can still enjoy the collective payment of various insurances for us. It's really catching up with the good times." Talking about the new life now, the old man Duoji in Zantang community, Zedang street, nidong District, Shannan City, Tibet gave a thumbs up. It is understood that Zantang community has integrated 11 industrial project groups and built a joint-stock economic cooperative, with a total of 77 households and 250 people, with an annual per capita dividend of more than 7000 yuan. Bian Ba Ziren, Secretary of the general Party branch of the community, said: "the community has also launched 13 measures to benefit the people, such as residents' medical treatment, pension insurance payment and student assistance, so that the development achievements can be shared by everyone." Every bit of change reflects the overall progress of Tibetan society. In today's Tibet, a modern education system covering preschool education, basic education, vocational education, higher education, continuing education and special education has been established, and the per capita length of education of the new labor force has been increased to 13.1 years; The living standards of people of all ethnic groups have been continuously improved, the medical conditions have been continuously improved, the social security system has been continuously improved, and the average life expectancy has been increased to 72.19 years In line with social development, there is also the construction of ecological civilization. Guided by the concept of green development, Tibet strictly restricts the development of industries with high energy consumption, high pollution and high emissions, and promotes land greening projects. In 2021, the average number of days with excellent air environmental quality in the region reached 98.8%. The water quality of major rivers and lakes remained good, the soil environmental quality was generally stable, and the ecological environmental quality of the region remained good. Sloanima, director of the development and Reform Commission of the Tibet Autonomous Region, said that during the 14th Five Year Plan period, a planned investment of 601.5 billion yuan will focus on supporting the protection and improvement of people's livelihood, infrastructure construction, ecological and environmental protection and the development of characteristic and advantageous industries, so as to further help Tibet's high-quality economic and social development. After 63 years of trials and hardships, Tibet has embarked on a glorious road of development. Now, on the road of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and on the new journey of promoting high-quality development, Tibet is bound to create a new history and write a new future.
