From poverty-stricken and isolated areas to the forefront of opening up to the outside world, old areas are moving towards "prosperity"
2024-09-09
Whether in the lush mountains, busy machinery, or smiling faces filled with happiness, people can deeply feel the vitality and new appearance that the new era has given to the revolutionary old areas. Walking into Huamao Village, Fengxiang Town, Bozhou District, Zunyi City, Guizhou Province, the "smiling face wall" covered with photos of villagers' smiling faces comes into view. We have upheld the bottom line of not returning to poverty. On the one hand, the village will continue to implement industrial coverage to drive and strengthen the employment of poverty-stricken households with labor force; On the other hand, we should make good use of public welfare positions and strengthen policy support The words of Peng Longfen, Secretary of the Party General Branch and Director of the Village Committee in Huamao Village, are resounding. Once upon a time, Huamao Village was known as the 'Wasteland', with barren fields and thatched houses everywhere. In recent years, Huamao Village has deeply integrated ecotourism with agriculture, culture, and commerce, and more than a dozen rural tourism operators have sprung up like mushrooms after rain. In 2023, Huamao Village received 1.18 million tourists and achieved tourism revenue of over 30 million yuan. Zhang Shengdi, the person in charge of the "Huamao Family" ancient paper-making workshop, has been working hard in another city since graduating from university. When she found that her hometown was getting better and better, she returned to her hometown through the "Phoenix Returns to the Nest" talent introduction program, and the carefully developed cultural and creative products were highly favored by tourists. The Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee pointed out that ensuring and improving people's livelihood in development is a major task of Chinese path to modernization. The revolutionary old area of Yan'an, Shaanxi is located in the hilly and gully area of the Loess Plateau, with dense channels. In order to improve the living conditions of the residents in the old areas, since 2021, Yan'an City has successively carried out the management of 32 ditches. At present, the beneficiaries of this project have reached 21000 households and nearly 60000 people. The street stretches leisurely along the gentle slope, with light yellow cave dwellings and residential buildings scattered on both sides of the road. Pocket parks and small and exquisite gardens adorn the area... In early autumn, Gaojiayuan Village in Baota District, Yan'an City presents a beautiful and livable scene. In the past, the ditches here were bumpy and narrow, and many places were piled up with garbage and debris. If residents had urgent illnesses, it was difficult for ambulances to enter. Now our place is as beautiful as a painting, and there are many tourists coming, "said Kuang Jijun, a 74 year old resident who is planning to transform his 8-hole cave into a homestay. Pang Zhenqiang, Deputy Director of Baota District Housing and Urban Rural Development Bureau in Yan'an City, introduced that Yan'an City has effectively solved the livelihood issues of the masses through a diversified financing model of "government investment, enterprise participation, and resident self financing". High mountains and long roads, remote and isolated, were once synonymous with old areas. Nowadays, many old areas not only have ports, high-speed railways, and airports, but also become the forefront of opening up to the outside world. The Ganzhou International Land Port cargo yard in Jiangxi is bustling with activity. With the sound of a long whistle, the China Europe freight train, loaded with export products such as household appliances, furniture, and mechanical equipment, slowly begins its journey to Moscow, Russia. The number of goods transported by the China Europe freight train is increasing, and the coverage of the routes is becoming wider. More enterprises are relying on logistics channels to go abroad Liu Liping, Deputy Director of the Operations Management Bureau of Ganzhou International Land Port Management Committee, introduced that since the establishment of the port, more than 1400 China Europe (Asia) trains have been operated, accounting for more than 75% of the total number of trains operated in the province. As the only inland open port in the revolutionary old area of the country, Ganzhou International Land Port has opened up a land sea channel connecting the old area of southern Jiangxi to the world, witnessing the old area embracing the world with the courage of reform and innovation and the confidence of openness. In Gannan, the spirit of old areas, bay area thinking, and special zone speed are not only heroic struggles, but also vivid realities. Ganzhou is accelerating to become an open highland and a city of entrepreneurship. No matter in the era of revolutionary war, or in the new journey of comprehensively deepening reform and promoting Chinese path to modernization, the people in the old areas have always been under the strong leadership of the Party, with the indomitable fighting spirit of self-improvement and hard struggle, as well as the indomitable heroic spirit of daring to win, forging ahead on the road of revitalization and development.
