At 9:14, more than 200 ex-servicemen from Guangdong and Guangxi set off from Guangzhou South Railway Station in Guangdong Province, and took the special train D2364 for home free, and embarked on the way home. The carriage was decorated with a festive atmosphere, with laughter from time to time. "It's fun to think of coming home soon and seeing the children!" Su Wangyi, a retired soldier, smiled. He is from Ningming County, Chongzuo City, and worked in Guangzhou with his wife after retiring from the army in 2012. "I have been a soldier for several years, and the Party and the government still remember that it is too glorious and warm to open a free bullet train for us and take our relatives with us." At 12:47 noon, the D2364 train slowly drove into the platform of Nanning East Railway Station. Under the guidance of the railway staff, the ex-servicemen walked out through the special channel. "Welcome Veterans" and "Welcome Home" banners are hung on both sides of the passage; A number of volunteer service stations are set up at the exit to provide baggage handling and other pickup services for ex-servicemen; The staff also prepared a gift bag for each ex-serviceman, which contains Spring Festival couplets, epidemic prevention materials, and pamphlets on preferential treatment policies for ex-servicemen. In recent years, the Guangxi Veterans Affairs Department has taken the initiative to dock with the Greater Bay Area of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao. By establishing the employment and entrepreneurship service platform for Guangxi's ex-servicemen in Guangdong, it has sent some ex-servicemen to the Greater Bay Area for employment and entrepreneurship, learning skills and accumulating experience every year. At the same time, through policy incentives, building platforms and other measures, we will guide Guangxi's ex-servicemen in Guangdong to return to their hometown for employment and entrepreneurship, bring the advanced experience of developed regions back to their hometown, and contribute to the construction of a magnificent Guangxi. The reporter learned that after the Spring Festival, Guangxi will also organize a "warm journey back to Guangdong" special train for the retired soldiers employed in Guangdong to provide convenience for the retired soldiers of Guangxi nationality who work and start businesses in the Dawan District.
